do you believe in miracle?

When uncertain came to me....
I looked for love to the wrong places...
but it was vain, useless...dragged me to the darkness
Finally, I realized that You are the answer..
of my stormy heart...
You come to reach me, give me freedom and certainty...
Lord, much deeper I walk with You..
I become winner to the vainity...
The troubles and problems never stop..
but You! You are more than enough for me.. to face the burdens of life!
(freestyle translated, song by Alice Sampeylan)


My 1st miracle was amazing. I was about 13 years old when I got appendicitis in that afternoon. I could not stand straight even walked...it's really hurt! So, my mom took me to the hospital, Rumah Sakit Kasih Ibu Solo. I had to overstay in hospital because it was already acute and festered all over the appendix, it needed immediate surgery. But because my condition was weak, I had to recover my strength first. Everyday, the doctor and nurses check my condition. I was given intravenous feedings, many of them. One day, the doctor said to take a full fasting because my condition was okay to take the surgery. But I was so afraid....

I don't want to take the surgery, please... the knives, the anesthetization, bright-small operation room, the chloroform smell...I don't like them all. God, help me to avoid this. I was so exhausted after frightened-cried, and fell asleep at that night. In the next morning, doctor came again and asked the nurse to take my urine test for preparing the surgery. Amazingly, the result was good and no more festers and my appendix was not stiff anymore. Miracle happened! I remembered, a song by Alice Sampeylan 'Kau Cukup Bagiku' touched me, encouraged me to rely on God's will in the night before. And no later than 2 days after that day, the doctor allowed me to go home. Hallelujah, praise the Lord! What amazing God You are!
