Yesterday I got a package that I've been waiting for since the last couple of weeks, soo excited when I first saw the name of the sender.

I quickly dialled my brother cause he was the one who ordered what I wanted and it was his name on the front side of the package, when I said to him where the package was from, he immediately said that the package was for me so I could ripped it off without having to wait for him, yeaahh ^o^

Excitedly, I opened it.. first disappointment was that the enveloped was no longer sealed! I don't know whether it was the sender who cut it off or the post office here but the side of the envelope had been cut.

Next disappointment was.. my goodness, I was ordering postcard online from HongKong and I was expected something big, at least much bigger than the size of.. namecards!!

I mean, there should be a minimum standard size for something to be called as postcard, right? What I got were more like mini greeting cards, rather than postcards, huhuhuhu..

I was soo disappointed even though the images are still so cute to look at :'( Not to mention that those 'mini' cards are like printed by personal computer, not even printed on a thicker paper!

Lesson number one from my international online shopping is.. ask much things about the things I'd like ordering before making the order! Just ask, and NEVER assume it myself about the things I wanted to buy!

So I browsed the seller page again to see what I've missed and apparently.. the image was quite clear of how very small those cards were, wakakakakakakakak..

Looked like I was too focused and too overwhelmed of the idea that I might have those cards with such cute images, and most certain, the ones you can't buy here that I didn't put too much notice on the card size, ahahahahaha..

So there goes my first experience of buying postcards online :p

Will I buy something else? I'd surely will.. cause I've checked another web source and there are soo many postcard books around with cute images, I just need to figure out the shipping fees and calculate it to my own currency so I know how much I'd spend, not just assuming, ahahahaha!

My Personal Verses

"Dia Tuhan, biarlah diperbuatNya apa yang dipandangNya baik." (1 Samuel 3:18)

Sekalipun pohon ara tidak berbunga, pohon anggur tidak berbuah, hasil pohon zaitun mengecewakan, sekalipun ladang-ladang tidak menghasilkan bahan makanan, kambing domba terhalau dari kurungan, dan tidak ada lembu sapi dalam kandang, namun aku akan bersorak-sorai di dalam Tuhan, beria-ria di dalam Allah yang menyelamatkan aku. Allah Tuhanku itu kekuatanku : Ia membuat kakiku seperti kaki rusa, Ia membiarkan aku berjejak di bukit-bukitku. (Habakuk 3:17-19)

Sesungguhnya, tangan Tuhan tidak kurang panjang untuk menyelamatkan, dan pendengaran-Nya tidak kurang tajam untuk mendengar, tetapi yang merupakan pemisah antara kamu dan Allahmu ialah segala kejahatanmu, dan yang membuat Dia menyembunyikan diri terhadap kamu, sehingga Ia tidak mendengar, ialah segala dosamu. (Yesaya 59:1-2)

Sebab rancangan-Ku bukanlah rancanganmu, dan jalanmu bukanlah jalan-Ku, demikianlah Firman Tuhan. Seperti tingginya langit dari bumi, demikianlah tingginya jalan-Ku dari jalanmu dan rancangan-Ku dari rancanganmu. Sebab seperti hujan dan salju turun dari langit dan tidak kembali ke situ, melainkan mengairi bumi, membuatnya subur dan menumbuhkan tumbuh-tumbuhan, memberikan benih kepada penabur dan roti kepada orang yang mau makan, demikianlah firman-Ku yang keluar dari mulut-Ku: ia tidak akan kembali kepada-Ku dengan sia-sia, tetapi ia akan melaksanakan apa yang Kukehendaki, dan akan berhasil dalam apa yang Kusuruhkan kepadanya. (Yesaya 55:8-11)

Orang-orang yang menabur dengan mencucurkan air mata, akan menuai dengan bersorak-sorai. Orang yang berjalan maju dengan menangis sambil menabur benih, pasti pulang dengan sorak-sorai sambil membawa berkas-berkasnya. (Mazmur 126:5-6)

Kita tahu sekarang, bahwa Allah turut bekerja dalam segala sesuatu untuk mendatangkan kebaikan bagi mereka yang mengasihi Dia, yaitu bagi mereka yang terpanggil sesuai dengan rencana Allah. (Roma 8:28)

Tuhan tidak lalai menepati janji-Nya, sekalipun ada orang yang menganggapnya sebagai kelalaian, tetapi Ia sabar terhadap kamu, karena Ia menghendaki supaya jangan ada yang binasa, melainkan supaya semua orang berbalik dan bertobat. (2 Petrus 3:9)

Hati mengenal kepedihannya sendiri, dan orang lain tidak dapat turut merasakan kesenangannya. (Amsal 14:10)

Segala tulisan yang diilhamkan Allah memang bermanfaat untuk mengajar, untuk menyatakan kesalahan, untuk memperbaiki kelakuan dan untuk mendidik orang dalam kebenaran. (2 Timotius 3:16)

Ketahuilah, bahwa Tuhan telah memilih bagi-Nya seorang yang dikasihi-Nya; Tuhan mendengarkan, apabila aku berseru kepada-Nya. (Mazmur 4:4)

Sebab sebelum lidahku mengeluarkan perkataan, sesungguhnya semuanya telah Kauketahui, ya Tuhan. (Mazmur 139:4)

"Sebab kepada-Mu, ya Tuhan, aku berharap; Engkaulah yang akan menjawab, ya Tuhan, Allahku." (Mazmur 38:16)

Pada hari aku berseru, Engkaupun menjawab aku; Engkau menambahkan kekuatan dalam jiwaku. (Mazmur 138:3)

Mengapa engkau tertekan, hai jiwaku, dan gelisah di dalam diriku? Berharaplah kepada Allah! Sebab aku akan bersyukur lagi kepada-Nya, penolongku dan Allahku! (Mazmur 42:6)

Tuhan akan meyelesaikannya bagiku! Ya Tuhan, kasih setia-Mu untuk selama-lamanya; janganlah Kautinggalkan perbuatan tangan-Mu! (Mazmur 138:8)

Pengharapan itu adalah sauh yang kuat dan aman bagi jiwa kita, yang dilabuhkan sampai ke belakang tabir. (Ibrani 6:19)

"Ya Allah, janganlah jauh dari padaku! Allahku, segeralah menolong aku! (Mazmur 71:12)

Bukankah telah Kuperintahkan kepadamu : kuatkan dan teguhkanlah hatimu? Janganlah kecut dan tawar hati, sebab Tuhan, Allahmu, menyertai engkau, ke manapun engkau pergi." (Yosua 1:9)

Tetapi berfirmanlah Tuhan kepada Samuel, "Janganlah pandang parasnya atau perawakan yang tinggi, sebab Aku telah menolaknya. Bukan yang dilihat manusia yang dilihat Allah; manusia melihat apa yang di depan mata, tetapi Tuhan melihat hati." (1 Samuel 16:7)

Aku, Tuhan, yang menyelidiki hati, yang menguji batin, untuk memberi balasan kepada setiap orang setimpal dengan tingkah langkahnya, setimpal dengan hasil perbuatannya." (Yeremia 17:10)
