Coincidence or Not?


We were taking a walk around the neighborhood last Saturday,
And we saw this on the pavement,
It says "If you think Luke is awesome follow the arrows."
My dog's name is LUKE,
So...
I decided to take this picture of him!

Sometimes in life we think it was a coincidence that we see this, meet them, do this, etc,
and many times it is just a coincidence of a day,
But actually ALL the time, it is not a coincidence.
What we think, see, hear, do,
WILL
affects other people and the earth in some ways.

God is taking care of every step we take,
To guide us, teach us so that we could do the same to others (and vice versa),
We are all a chain in this world,
One person connect to the other,
One change the other's life and that person change the next one's life and etc.
We learn from experience and other people's wisdom,
There is nothing new under heaven
;)

We might take detours and wrong turns along the way,
But God will try a lot in His power to bring you back to the right path,
And trust me..He is powerful.

Sometimes the detour is not easy,
Its hard, but its for our best interest.
Beside, we are the one who made the wrong turn, deal with the consequences.
It is better to hurt now but at the end it is for our best and healing,
Than keep walking and enjoy the dangerous momentarily "happiness"
and at the end it kills us, destroys us, hurt us.

The keywords are OBEDIENT and WILLINGNESS
to understand God's goodness (or our own understanding, which is limited and selfish),
to be mold according to what God think is better for us.
He sees our potential while we settle for just "OK",
Why settle for less if we can excel to the greater level?

We met people along the way in this life,
Some of them are gone,
Some are still stays,
Some are set to meet us in the future.

Everything that we do in this life,
is either for our benefits and others,
Or a disaster for us.

So NEVER think that what you do will not affect other people,
Because it is!
Remember we are all a chain to each other and we affected other people's lives in some way,
It is just like a "domino effect" 
We can either strengthened or destroyed each other.

In Manadonese, we say it "Torang Samua Basudara,"
Which means, "We are all brothers/sisters"
Basudara simply means related/family!
:)

Everything we do is affecting other creature's being on this earth,
May it be human, animals, plants or earth in general.
Live a life that will help the environment in a positive way instead of destroying it.
What you sow now will be reap later on in life,
by you, your children and other people's grandchildren,
etc.
