Slapped by Prayer

Is it hurt if you are slapped by something? Of course, yes. Well, this sounds like I ask a rhetorical question, a kind of questioning sentence that does not need any answer because the answer is already clear. Nevertheless, life gives many rhetorical things that make you slapped. 

The real example has just come tonight. When I finished eating in Uda Sianturi's cafe in Turen, I came back home and sent my aunt an information on Facebook that she should check her Blackberry Messenger because I had sent her some kebaya sketches I have designed. After talking about the model that my aunt will love, I asked her why she quitted from her office. Then, she said that the company that some of my family members work in has just closed. 

"Damn!" I swore in my heart. Then I asked her about what will my father do after the company, Central Pertiwi Bahari has just closed. She said that he will do something.

Then, I think about how I pray, how I usually pray, and how I usually do when there is an intercession in the church. The shittest thing of it is that I realize that I do nothing in my prayer! I prefer to find any updates on fashion in my Instagram or looking at my friends' status, which is usually unimportant--some, or talking to the other. 

I believe that praying is the breath of Christians, and so does the other religion. On the other hand, people sometimes underestimating the power of praying because the good prayer means that a person should put some poetic devices or so on. If people don't breath, they will die. Therefore, if Christians don't breath with their prayer, then what kind of death will happen? I think, the death of faith is the best answer. My justification is that people think that they can solve the problem themselves rather than surrender it to The Problem Solver. 

I remembered my mother's quote. That's the wisest sentence ever. "Don't ever walk alone. Walk with Him, then you'll be blessed."

Then, what did I do? Are my friends' tweets are more important than tell problems and gratefulness to Our Problem Solver? Are my friends' moments are more important then tell problems and gratefulness to Our Problem Solver?

Darling, you know it, then. You should know that your God is An Almighty. He has the power to turn your life upside-down, like a wheel. Never solve your problem yourself. Trust me. For sure.
