His Eye Is On The Sparrow

-
This past few weeks I've been obsessed with a song from Sister Act II.

It could be because the simplicity yet deep meaningful lyric, it could be because Lauryn Hill and Tanya Blunt sang it very beautifully. Nevertheles, I can't get the song out of my mind.

"His Eye Is On The Sparrow"

Why should I feel discouraged
Why should the shadows come
Why should my heart fell lonely
And long for heaven and home

When Jesus is my portion
A constant friend is he
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he watches over me
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he watches me

I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow

And I know he watches
He watches me
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he watches
I know he watches
I know he watches me

He watches me. Everywhere I go, every step I take, every decision I made, He watches. He guide me all the way. There are time I choose not to listen, there are times I regret things. But He still watches.

This song remind me of classic Sunday School song, "Burung Pipit yang Kecil".

Burung pipit yang kecil dikasihi Tuhan, terlebih diriku dikasihi Tuhan.
Bunga bakung di padang diberi keindahan, terlebih diriku dikasihi Tuhan.

Not merely because both songs mention birds, hehehe.
Also because God is great, He loves His creations. Wild flowers and little sparrows, more over human kind which He create similar to Him.



A sentence from "3 Idiots" movie that I like (don't remember the exact words but it went something like this):
Our little hearts? They got scared easily.
So I pat mine when I'm sacred, and say "all is well"




Conclusion?
My scared little heart, He watches.
He watches, He understands.
So be brave, for He will guide you all the way.

Hello! How's it going guys? Not all rainbows, reindeer, unicorns, and lollipops for me. But I'll survive. Today I'm going to do another post about manga. from Otoyomegatari - Kaoru Mori One of my all time favorite mangaka is Kaoru Mori. She's known for her manga Emma, Shirley, and most recently is Otoyomegatari or The Bride's Story. The last one, Otoyomegatari, is the most beautifully drawn manga I have ever seen. Oh-La-La!! The details are exquisite. It is sharp, charming, and realistic. Mori tells her story not only by words but most of the time through pictures. Loud ones. The other thing I love about her work is she often draws the smallest aspect of the characters' life but somehow relevant. Small aspects that you rarely see described by other mangakas. For example, the chapter about trousseau. Rather than describing everything with talking bubbles, Mori draws details and more details. Even the stitching process. Absolutely magnificent.

Cooking During Pandemic

-
 Due to the endless time spent at home, because of the corona virus, most people take up the hobby of cooking. I did too, for some time. But after I got pregnant, another impact of the pandemic I guess lol (BLESSING IN DISGUISE OK), I don't cook as much anymore. Because during the first weeks of my pregnancy I feel nauseous and vomit so much, I was very sensitive to smell and tastes.  I did made a youtube video of my cooking though. Who knows when I'll cook as much again in the future. Klik this link for the vid! https://youtu.be/dkY0KLennUM #didapuraja GEGARA CORONCES
