I Don't Need to be Afraid of It

 I forget when, but it’s quite long. Long time, I was a girl that scared of the words “the end of the world” or “doomsday”. When I heard that words, I used to get scared and prayed. When it was night, I prayed before I went to sleep. After I prayed, I went to sleep. I remember that I was dreaming about the end of the world. Many Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO)s were falling to the world. I remember that I was separated with my parents. I cried and don’t know what to do. I got up and I cried. It was in the midnight. So I got back to sleep.

My dream about doomsday is not just this. I got it so many of I when I was sleeping.

I told my dreams to my friend, Rebecca. She’s older than me and we are like sisters. She’s really close with God. She said that I didn’t need to be scared. I should be happy. But why? It’s because Jesus wants us to tell the world. I asked her tell about what? I was confused. And she said that He wants me to tell the world that He will come for the second time. And He wants us to be prepared for His coming. And she said that I’m chosen to be His servant. That’s why He gives me many dreams about the end of the world. Not only that, He gave me a dream that was about The Book of Life. In my dream, I was talking to Jesus. Then I saw a big, beautiful building. He told me to see the names. So I saw and searched for my name. But I didn’t see it. I cried. My name wasn’t in the Book of Life? How could that be? Then I was awake. I prayed to Him. Im very grateful because He chose to be His servant to tell the world. I mustn’t be afraid for His coming. I have to run. I want to win the race and stay forever with Him in heaven with my family and friends.

The dreams that Jesus gave to me make me to be more closer to Him. Reminds me to worship Him, read the Bible, be a patient girl, and everything.

I have a friend that is not a Christian. He wrote on his status “Doomsday is coming near! 5 days to go!”. He wrote that for 5 days. When I read it, suddenly I felt scared. But Rebecca told me that I know the truth. People don’t know when will He come. But they know it’s almost time. So I don’t need to feel afraid. Yeah. She’s right. I have to be prepared for His coming. Not be afraid. And I sang and worship Him. I felt that I have renewed by Him. I didn’t feel afraid anymore. It was His blessings.

About half month ago, I went to Food Festival at Pakuwon City. I ate and played some games with my little nephew. Usually, when I was at Food Festival, I used to feel that the end of the world will happened. And at the Food Festival, I was on the way to the parking lot and wanted to take my nephew home. And suddenly Food Festival became dark. The lights were out. And I couldn’t see anything. Oh no. Is this the end of the world? My sister told me that we were lucky because we already ate and on the way at home. And she said, “Hope there won’t be an zombies.” And we laughed. But deep inside, I was so scared. But I prayed and keep saying, “in the name of Jesus Christ” all the times. I know He will give me strength.

Finally, I’m home already. I did some activities like watching TV, playing computer and text messaging. And it’s time to sleep. I prayed to God and said, “Thanks for today Lord. You have reminded me about Your Son’s coming. I will be prepared. I am ready to dream about the end of the world. I don’t need to be scared. Because I believe in You. I give my life for You.”

And now, I’m not afraid anymore. Even sometimes Jesus gave me the “doomsday”dream. I’m not afraid because He doesn’t want me to be afraid for His coming. So, I want us to be prepared for His coming. And let us see He’s smiling because we did a great job.
