Prefatory


Thanks to the moon, the stars, the darkest skies, the gloomy skies, cricket voices, the streets, the trees, fellowship.

Thanks for many hours.
You keeping me awake to write this short story.

And Thanks for all the universe whom bringing the pleasure of me.








I was 21 years old, and Grace is my name!

Grace is more like gracious, graceful or gracefully.


Grace is love, absolutely!












Grace! Here’s to you.
In the days to come
may you have the incredible soul strength
to throw your head back,

and please, just laugh!










There’s a whole story,
a whole history
and it’s been captured
in one fleeting moment
with just a few month of writing!

**
Zephaniah 3:17, “The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing."


Happy Birthday for the best person I know.
Happy Birthday to a person that’s ‘charming’ and reminds me a lot of myself.

**

As you celebrate your day,
I celebrated the wonderful friendship we’ve!
May it brings you the happiness you deserve.
Jeremiah 31:3, said “The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying: "I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness.

This ‘chapter’ goes on with the good words and comfortable words which we had in the ‘chapter’ before, for the encouragement of the captives, assuring them that God would in due time restore them or their children to their own land, and make them a great and happy nation again, especially by sending them the Messiah, in whose kingdom and grace many of these promises were to have their full accomplishment.
**

Each a one of us learning about love. Love is grace! Grace is love!
Grace is Graceful, Gracefully, and Gracious.
Your name really means a lot for the entire world! Just be your name!
Just be like GRACE of Christ Jesus.

“..You are God’s Beloved..”






Foreword!

Grace was sitting in the corner of oma Betty’s house. She’s playing a guitar very simply and be in mutual accord with one of the girl whom take a part being a worship leader. Grace was excited, more excited in silently.
She touch my heart very deeply when she talks and giving her testimony and then, the words (it) makes me got a goosebumps. She said like, “I don’t know why the people being my friends. I’m scared my friends just being my friends because of my father’s identity!” Start from that, Grace was catch my attention. I want to be her friend. Friendly and jokey! Just like that!
Next hours, I saw her very drowsy! And she writes something on her paper/book very carefully. I can’t descripting her subtle facial expressions. She is so different.
Dear, Grace-girl!
An art is a person for me Like a rhythm is a person.
Music is a person like your piano! And like my violin is a person, exactly.
A letter is a person like my diary is a person.
And for for sure, “Grace was a person for me.”

Do you remember on september, we walk both that night and i’ve told to you if I want to write you a letter.
But, how does one write about “EMPTINESS”
**

Standing with you in prayer and faith during this time, Grace!

Grace Outside!
**

Grace’s attitude has taught me every single day.

Never feel inferior nor superior
Just content, tolerant and grateful.

Just feel comfortable with who we are, what we have and what we are capable of.

You’re such a blessing, Anne!
Thanks.

A Few Words From Writer

Hi, Grace!
This is me, Rista! The reason I’m writing this short story is to share my experiences with you. So, if this ever happens to you, you will know what to expect.

Two things you need to get through all the things in this world are faith and hope in commitment! In fact, those are the things I depend on most.

Grace, my younger,
When I learned a lot about life and grow with the people around me, I thought I will never be able to get through life. Actually, I realize what God has done into my life and in the same time, I know that I had to have faith in the Lord. God has hung on the cross and I become worthy to doing anything for His kingdom’s sake. So, I walked and strive by myself. So, as I did before, I handed my thoughts to the Lord. I have to admit sometimes.


Grace,
my mom and my dad reminds me of the things, and told me:

..if you start to feel run-down, think of the Lord and of all the things He is doing and all He has done to help you..”


Grace, my-Younger.
Let’s walk with our shepherd, Christ Jesus.











There are many versions of me out there- it is an amusing reality that comes with doing what I do. But right here and right now, I’m going to give you my versions.


If anything I write here can make you smile- or think! Yea!
Actually, I’ve done what I wanted through writing this story!







My self will grow as I changed and interact with my community and my world!
I choose to be excited about the prospect of being able to customize myself.

·         Dear you! Breathe and relax!
·         Dear you! Your journey is your own.
·         Dear you! You are to yours! Understand!
·         You can take of yourself and you can take of others.





For closing word for this part:

I just want to be a friend.
Friendly.
Jokey.
I did it out of ‘friendship’ concept.

Start from another hours.
I am your friend.
Yes, we are friend within our-soul.






Grace In Evaluation!


Grace-girl, Evaluate the past and understand why you did and what you did.
Just breath, and live your days consciously.
You are more enough!
Just realize that you could be wrong!
Look back!
Grace, you doing anything in perfectly.
But, the great things is when you feel it your perfectly things you do. Keep going!

DONT THINK TO BE ANOTHER GRACE!
JUST BE WHO YOU ARE!
YOU ARE IS SO PRECIOUS!
