We know four periods in one day: morning, noon, evening, and night. Morning is the time we prepare all to do many things that we must do that day. Noon is our most active period, where we use our energy and mind the most. Evening is the time we come back to home and talk with our family. And night, when we rest from all the activity during the day.

This year, I’ve already 20 years old. If I assume I die in 70, then now is 8 or 9 am. So it means that it’s the time to prepare all the things that I must do, to finish His work in the world according to His plan, according to His will.

This moment is the beginning, I still have many times to learn, to change myself according to His word. Sometimes He allows problems come in my life to show me my weaknesses and then change it. Sometimes I feel so hard to change it. But, like a mountaineer that must climb a mountain in hostile condition – there are predators, dense forest, and extreme slope terrain – I mustn’t surrender.

Because I have one purpose. True happiness.

True happiness, peace. Yeah, I hope in my old time, I’m surrounded by all the people who I love. I am fulfilled with gratitude to God, feeling nostalgic moment with my friends, enjoy the evening dusk in my life without feel regret.

I’ve heard many about people that feel regret and afraid in their old time. People who surrender easily to find their life purpose and then in the old time they feel their life is useless. People who have done dirty things like murder and corruption. In the old time, they are imprisoned, prosecuted, and stroked by many illnesses.

I also have heard beautiful biography about them who are success to keep their faith. In the Bible, Abraham – a man who is very faithful to God though it’s very impossible to hope. Now people know Abraham is father for many races. Albert Einstein, who met many difficulties in the school, ever became jobless for 2 years, and even Hitler want his death, but now we know him as one of the most famous scientist.

Just like Paul said “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.”

Isn’t it beautiful? I want after I’ve done many things in the world, Jesus embraces me and says, “Well done, my son. Now, you can rest here forever, stay with Me forever.”

How beautiful.
