Jiwaku Tenang Part II - Only By Your Grace!

Saturday, June 21st, 2008

I Run to the VIP room, where my grandma located…I saw my grand ma was in her end of life, I cry very hard and pray in my heart to my Mighty Lord to have a justice in my grandma’s life. Because I believe in my life that the salvation is grace from God. I only have a faith that my Grandma receive the grace of salvation that will have the eternal life in Heaven. And all of us from our big family in christ will meet soon in Heaven, because she has admit in mouth That God is saviour.

Thanks lord for the chance you give to our family.
Only By Your Grace!

The next session is, the ceremony being held for a weeks. but what kind of ceremony will be held?

Actually I want the ceremony in Christian Ceremony, but have a little debate in us, that we need to use the chinese traditional ceremony, because :
1. Grandma has not been baptized
2. if we force in using Christian ceremony of demize, all people not in christian, like  relation, neighbour, family will say to us That we overbearing our grandma to believe in christ, and it will be a boomerang(revert) to us and christian only.
so after we think more, and we got a wisdom from God in heaven, we decide to Use Chinese Tradition only, no with budha’s tradition.
but we still invite church to give solace ceremony for 3 days before the burial ceremony.

soon after that, we follow the tradition, the ceremony also. After that we have at the end of the ceremony, a week has been passed.

we still remeber our grandma, her kindness, her wisdom to us, her command, and all of her love to us.

my self have been accompany my grandma every where since she started sick. first is to Surabaya, where with ambulans I took her to airport, and 3 weeks in Surabaya Hospital..also in Tarakan.

we also give thanks to ours relation like :
1. All of our big familys, especially our uncle and her wife who provide any of breakfast during the ceremony
2. Thanks to relation like  Bank Danamon, Golkar, PAN, Deperindag(Moko),Mandala Airlines (Mahfud),Eko-Li Siau Yin
3. Special Thanks to GKKA CHURCH and ANGLIKAN CHURCH,
   LET GOD MADE YOU AS BLESSING TO TARAKAN SOCIETY

Thats All, once again we reminded to Our creator, The almighty God.
In Jesus Name.

"Jiwaku Tenang", one of Kidung Jemaat Song or PPK that made me cry very very hard and loud when the time of we remember and adore the GOd’s Sovereignity.

My Lovely Grandma passed away suddenly. Some case that we never thought before. Unpredictable. on Friday in 3 weeks ago, I back from Tg Selor, where I just open a branch office for running my bussiness in the small town near Tarakan.

in evening, I go to my grandma’s room, say hello to her and talking each other.
She said that she Feel a little headache and fell so hot in her body and also inside her body.

we think that is common happened, because she was 84 years old.

then after I back from my office, mother told us that grandma in very serious condition.

her heart getting lump and feel so big until her stocmach being very tough while we touch.

SO HOW….
we decide to bring her to hospital..but she reject!
I cry when the Doctor said, "all of you have to be ready for unwanted things will happen"
I ask God…God how soon you call her, she has not in christ already…also has not been baptized…

my sister with brave heart, go to near my grandma, we cry very loud and ask grand ma to believe Jesus, I pray for her also, we pray together…
Good News, She had received the grace of God…

after that, the other doctor came and check her….and suggest us to bring her to hospital..

soon we persuate her to go to…but she still reject our demand.

after discuss, we decide to see how this night will going on..

then after that..

SUNDAY,
sunday morning, she fell better, we are all in happy…
suddenly afternoon, she feel so difficult in to take a breath…every of her breath so deep and tough..

we call ambulans and take her soon to hospital..
I follow and touching her hand and pray in Heart for the best from God.

Doctor give some injured help like oxygen and masker.
soon after that…
we arrived in hospital, after that, I go home and take a bath!

monday morning, where the day of PILKADA for Kalimantan Timur. I do not follow it and go to hospital to visit my lovely grandma.

I cry because grand ma do not sleep fo a night, it means her performance going down soon..

night I go to hospital again….I saw her eyes and cry,

how and why…I am the only boy from our family that inherit our surename CANG!

eleven o clock at night, I went to home.
morning, I wake up a 6 o clock, I cry…I can not sleep

I take my piano…and play…also guitar..
suddenly my mom come and take a comb and nail cutter to help my grandma to cut hers.
I follow, and that is the time where the last she open her eyes..she saw me for the last..

I still do not realize that, I thought she sleep, because she still can breath…

I back to home to take a bath!

suddenly mother cry and phone me that Grandma was passed away.
