Roemah Kebun Bandung

These Pictures were taken when we had a holiday in Bandung with our lovely nephew, Tabitha. We went to have a lunch at Roemah Kebun on Riau Street, Bandung

The food that offered there was not quite different from other venue in Bandung. Customer could enjoy traditional Sunda food or western food such us steak or lasagna. We chose Ayam Goreng kremes, Tahu goreng and Lalapan.

The special concept of this restaurant was the outdoor area. There was a big pond in the center contained big and pretty fishes. The costumer could stay and play close to the fishes. That was why the kids, and also my nephew was so excited to play there

A Wife Prayer

Dear Lord,

Help me to be the kind of wife you want me to be.

Help me not to take my role as wife lightly or take my husband's love for granted.

Help me to be a good listener, giving my husband my full attention so that I will be well aware of his concerns, aspirations, and needs.

Help me to pay attention to the advice my husband gives me when he brings things to my attention that I may be doing wrong or that I could be doing better.

Help me to be more anxious to please my husband than to have my own way.

Help me to be aware of the things that I do that upset my dear husband - and enable me not to keep doing them - so that I will not be causing unnecessary problems in our relationship.

Help me to remember that I am commanded to submit to my husband's role as head of the house even if he fails to faithfully submit to the headship of Christ.

Help me to treat my husband better than when we were first met and remind me of the importance of spending quality time alone with him and of doing things to remind him of how special he is to me.

Help me not to jump to conclusions about my husband's motives and enable me to think the best of him at all times.

Help me to apologize and set things straight when I complain, falsely accuse, act selfishly, or say unkind or provoking words.

Help me to go out of my way to complement him and to encourage him.

Help me to be a proper example of what a loving, considerate, caring, and self-sacrificing wife should be.

Help me to realize that it is my job to be an example of a mature and godly wife and not an example of a disrespectful and selfish child.

Help me to be joyful in spite of my circumstances and help me to avoid whining and complaining when things do not go my way.

Help me to admit my faults, to apologize when I am wrong, and to be anxious to heal wounds that I may have caused in my relationship to my husband.

Help me to realize that is far better to get my husband to do things I want him to do because he loves me and not because I nag him.

Help me to never forget that You gave me my husband to be a helpmate and best friend and may I never think of him as an adversary or a hindrance.

Help me to show my children how much I respect and love their father by my actions and by the words out of my mouth.

Help me not to be afraid to be affectionate and loving towards my husband in front of my children so that they will know how to be good spouses when they grow up.

Help me to support my husband in the proper administration of discipline to our children so they are not a burden or a grief to my husband.

Help me to show my children that my husband is truly my very best friend and a highly trusted partner in the ministry of our family.

Make me the kind of wife who my husband will never regret having married and even more than that, make me the kind of wife who is a joy for my husband to be around and who my husband will be proud to call his wife, a woman who honors him and who honors Christ.

Amen.

Meet My Dad

Last week, we met my Dad who came to Jakarta for attending His working's event in Pasar Minggu. Because His schedule was already full and it was also hard for us to meet on week days, we chose to meet Him on last Saturday

We were so happy to meet because we haven't seen each other since me and my hubby left Pekanbaru ( a day after my 2nd reception there) on June last year, that was why i was so excited to meet Him. So bad because the traffic was out of control and we could reach His place after 2 hours on the way

(me and my dad who always encourage me)

Beside me and my hubby, my second brother who lives in Bintaro also came there, together with his GF, it was also the first time for my Dad to meet her after just knowing her name for several months.

(us, minus Gege, my brother's Gf, who took the shoot)

After eating and chit chat for several hours, we had to leave Him because He had the closing event and must leave Jakarta early in the morning. After that, its time for young people where we went to Citos to continue talking until midnite..what a nice big family moment!
