Your 2nd Trip to Jakarta


You have your 2nd overseas trip on 12th Nov 2009, back to home city of your mom, Jakarta.
This time, I followed.
We have one thing in common in Jakarta: always feel tired and sleepy.
I think because of the heavy traffic everywhere we go, make us 'road-sick'.
We really need time to adapt if one day, we have to stay in Jakarta.

We visited Reformed Evangelical Church.
The church building has completed from the last time I visited.
It is amazing that a church building in such magnitude could be build on this land, the most populated Muslim country in the world.
More amazing for your dad is, the word 'Kasihilah Allah dan SesamaMu', is written on top of the building, since the word Allah is banned from using in Christianity in Malaysia.

Son, the founder of this church, Stephen Tong, is a living testimony for three generations in my time, for God's amazing Providence and Power of what He can do through a man who put God first in his life. It is worthwhile for you to study his life, his ministry and his teaching. Not to make him your idol as he is also just a sinner saved by grave, but to inspire you in the way of Christian living and ministry.
In life, we man sometimes need 'heroes' to show us a good example of a godly living.
I am lucky to have few.

I am going back to Penang tomorrow, but you will stay with mom for 3 weeks.
I surely will miss you both greatly.

Take care, son.
