People You Meet

Four people you will meet in life
Life is the process of finding love; every person will need to find four people in their life.

First person is you, Second person is the one you love most, Third person is the one who love you most, And the fourth is the one you spend the rest of your life with.

In life, firstly you will meet with the one you love most, and learn how love feels. Because you know how love feels, so you can find the person who loves you most. When you have experienced the feeling of loving others and being loved, you will then know what it is you need most. Then you will find the person who is most suitable for you, to be able to spend the rest of your life with.

Sadly, in real life, these three people are usually not the same person.

The one you love most doesn't love you. The one, who love you most, is never the one you love most.

And the one you spend your life with, is never theone you love most or the one who love you most.

He is just the person who happens to be at the right place at the right time.

Which person are you in other people's life?

No person will purposely have a change of heart.

At the point in time when he loves you, he really loves you. But when he doesn't love you anymore,he really doesn't love you anymore. When he loves you, he can't pretend that he doesn't. Same goes, when he loves you no more, there's no way he can pretend he loves you.

When a person doesn't love you and wants to leave you. You must ask yourself if you still love him, If you also don't love him anymore, do not keep him just to save your pride. If you still love him, you should wish him happiness, and hope that he will be with the one he loves most, not stop him from it. If you stop him from finding true happiness with the one he loves, it shows you already don't love him, And if you don't love him, what rights do you have to blame him for a change of heart?

Love is not possessive, If you like the moon, you can't just take it down and put it in your basin, But the moonlight still shines upon you. In other words, when you love a person, you can use another method of possessing the person. Let him become a permanent memory in you life. If you really love a person, you must love him for what he is. Love him for his good points, and the bad, You can't wish for him to become like what you like him to be just because you love him. If he can't change to become what you like him to be, you don't love him anymore.

When you really love a person, you cannot find a reason why you love him, You only know that no matter when and where, good mood or bad mood, you will wish to have this person be with you. Real love is when two people can go through the toughest problems without asking for promises or listing criterias. In a relationship, you have to put in effort and give in at times, not always be on the receiving end. Being away from each other is a type of test, If the relationship isn't strong, then you can only admit defeat. Real love will never become hate.

When two people are in love, They love to ask each other to swear, to make promises. Why do they ask each other to swear and promise?

Because they don't trust each other, they don't trust their lover. These swear and promises are useless; Till the sky falls, till the ocean dry, my love for you will never change! We all know that the sky will never fall; the ocean will never dry, Even if it does happen, are we still alive by then?

Be careful when making promises; don't make promises that you cannot keep.

Swear by things that can never happen, because it can never happen, so no harm just saying it casually.

Remember, swearing by things that can never happen are the most touching!!

In a relationship, what you say is one thing, but what you do is another; The one saying, doesn't believe; the one listening, also doesn't believe.

Nilai Seikat Bunga

Seorang pria turun dari sebuah mobil mewah yang diparkir di depan kuburan umum. Pria itu berjalan menuju pos penjaga kuburan. Setelah memberi salam, pria yang ternyata adalah sopir itu berkata, “Pak, maukah Anda menemui wanita yang ada di mobil itu? Tolonglah Pak, karena para dokter mengatakan sebentar lagi beliau akan meninggal!”

Penjaga kuburan itu menganggukan kepalanya tanda setuju dan ia segera berjalan di belakang sopir itu.

Seorang wanita lemah dan berwajah sedih membuka pintu mobilnya dan berusaha tersenyum kepada penjaga kuburan itu sambil berkata, “Saya Ny. Steven. Saya yang selama ini mengirim uang setiap dua minggu sekali kepada Anda. Saya mengirim uang itu agar Anda dapat membeli seikat bunga dan menaruhnya di atas makam anak saya. Saya datang untuk berterima kasih atas kesediaan dan kebaikan hati Anda. Saya ingin memanfaatkan sisa hidup saya untuk berterima kasih kepada orang-orang yang
telah menolong saya.”

“O, jadi Nyonya yang selalu mengirim uang itu? Nyonya, sebelumnya saya minta maaf kepada Anda. Memang uang yang Nyonya kirimkan itu selalu saya belikan bunga, tetapi saya tidak pernah menaruh bunga itu di pusara anak Anda.” jawab pria itu.

“Apa, maaf?” tanya wanita itu dengan gusar.

“Ya, Nyonya. Saya tidak menaruh bunga itu di sana karena menurut saya, orang mati tidak akan pernah melihat keindahan seikat bunga.

Karena itu setiap bunga yang saya beli, saya berikan kepada mereka yang ada di rumah sakit, orang miskin yang saya jumpai, atau mereka yang sedang bersedih. Orang-orang yang demikian masih hidup, sehingga mereka dapat menikmati keindahan dan keharuman bunga-bunga itu, Nyonya,” jawab pria itu.

Wanita itu terdiam, kemudian ia mengisyaratkan agar sopirnya segera pergi.

Tiga bulan kemudian, seorang wanita cantik turun dari mobilnya dan berjalan dengan anggun ke arah pos penjaga kuburan.

“Selamat pagi. Apakah Anda masih ingat saya? Saya Ny. Steven. Saya datang untuk berterima kasih atas nasihat yang Anda berikan beberapa bulan yang lalu. Anda benar bahwa memperhatikan dan membahagiakan mereka yang masih hidup jauh lebih berguna daripada meratapi mereka yang sudah meninggal..

Ketika saya secara langsung mengantarkan bunga-bunga itu ke rumah sakit atau panti jompo, bunga-bunga itu tidak hanya membuat mereka bahagia, tetapi saya juga turut bahagia.

Sampai saati ini para dokter tidak tahu mengapa saya bisa sembuh, tetapi saya benar-benar yakin bahwa sukacita dan pengharapan adalah obat yang memulihkan saya!”

Jangan pernah mengasihani diri sendiri, karena mengasihani diri sendiri akan membuat kita terperangkap di kubangan kesedihan. Ada prinsip yang mungkin kita tahu, tetapi sering kita lupakan, yaitu dengan menolong orang lain sesungguhnya kita menolong diri sendiri.

Amsal 17 : 22 Hati yang gembira adalah obat yang manjur, tetapi semangat yang patah mengeringkan tulang.

The Apple of His Eye

Today's Scripture

“Keep me as the apple of your eye…” (Psalm 17:8).

Today's Word from Joel and Victoria

God cherishes and values you so much today. You are the apple of His eye; the center of His world! In this day and age, people are considered to be important for so many different reasons—titles, position, possessions, where you go, what you drive. But God’s value system is very different from the value system of the world. If you’ve ever thought that God has too many other important things on His plate to be concerned with you and your life, know this today—you are God’s number one priority. And there’s nothing you can do to be more important or less important. God values you today simply because He made you, and your value will never change. You are significant. Your life is significant. The things that concern you, concern God. He carefully watches over every detail of your life, and there is nothing too big or too small for His attention. Take your concerns and cares to the Father today. He loves to hear you call upon Him, and He is waiting to show Himself strong on your behalf. Because you are important to Him, He is ready to bless and empower you to live in victory all the days of your life.

A Prayer for Today

Father in heaven, thank You for loving me today. Thank You for making me the apple of Your eye. I open my heart to You today and cast every care on You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

From : Joel Osteen Ministries
