My Journey in Finding God's Will

So, here is the new chapter of my life, dimana saat ini I am on Journey in Finding God's will.

Sebuah perjalanan yang gak mudah buat gw, i am lost my direction and sering kali bingung where to go. Istilahnya kayak udah sampe di area dimana kayaknya i am going deeper and deeper sampai mau turning back itu jadi sebuah hal yang membingungkan.

Ada sebuah pepatah atau nasihat, kayak kalau kita sebagai nahkoda kapal, bergeser 1 derajat aja tapi dijalankan secara terus menerus, akan berujung kepada kesesatan yang terlalu jauh.

One day i find some truths, actually there are more truths i received, but here is the first chapter of it.

I am a kind of person who waiting for a sign and based on feeling when i need decide something.
karena pengalaman gw selama ini, dimana sepertinya semua hal ada TANDA dan FEELING yang gw rasakan THATS IT.

but, unfortunately, THATS WRONG ! walau keberadaan gw saat ini sampai saat ini adalah hasil dari kebaikan Tuhan dalam hidup gw, tapi THE WAY i saw this menjadi sebuah hal yang salah dan mematahkan seluruh pemikiran dan pengalaman gw.

God's is not playing game with me, He wants me to understand His will, His purpose and His plan for my life.

Sering banget gak sih kita ngomong hal ini ke diri kita sendiri," I want God to guide me, but i still get confused. I don't know what to do." and there is some mistakes in here, do you recognize ? "I Don't know what to do, i don't know what i want, etc"

My first mistake is I HAVE to know what i am looking for before I can find it.

So at least there is 3 Truths i learnt from Ps Rick Warren about this.

  1. God's will is not a feeling

    Mungkin bukan gw doang nih yang ngerasain hal ini, tapi sering banget gw menunggu atau mencari "feeling" atau supernatural sign. Masalahnya adalah Feeling itu bisa menipu dan tidak dapat diandalkan. Feeling bisa berasal dari Fatique, Hormones, atau bahkan sebuah Event yang kita pernah alami. Feeling itu menipu, bahkan devil dapat membuat sebuah feeling. 

    So, Don't wait for a feeling when you are trying to figure out God's plan for your life

  2.  God's will is not a FORMULA

    We always want things to follow a simple formula, to be easy, so it will instantly changing our life. But, GOD'S will is not a formula, its not a closed system, ITS DYNAMIC!
    Its not always an issue of choosing A to B, many times it can be A to Z, and anyone of them is OKAY, we need to choose it.

    We are too afraid of making choices and thats what makes you don't have courage to make a decision. If you are believe in God, no matter the way you choose, if it still in Godly way, God will be there.

    WHY WOULD GOD GIVE YOU A BRAIN AND NOT EXPECT YOU TO USE IT?
    HE lets you make a choice and He Gives you the second CHANCEs.

  3. God's will is a RELATIONSHIP
    There is a very little in the Bible about the technique of knowing God's will, but there are thousands of verses that talk about developing a loving RELATIONSHIP with Him.
The better we got to know Him, the less confusion you're going to have about what His will is. Get to know God and everything is became secondary.

So, in conclusion, RELATIONSHIP with GOD is the only way we get to know What His Will in our life, and How to build relations with God ? by knowing His will and all of His will is written in His word in Bible.
