Calvin .Birthday Party .Construction Worker


Calvin udah planning semuanya untuk Birthday dia…setiap hari dia ceritakan apa yang ada dalam pikiran dia…on and on again!

Sabtu lalu…

Waktu jalan pulang dari reading club ke rumah…kita lewat 1 block yang dibawahnya *lantai 1* ada beberapa construction worker yang tidur…keliatan nyenyak sekali…walopun gak nyaman

Calvin: “Mommy why are they sleeping in here?!”
Mom: “They don’t have enough money to buy a bed and their place is so far away they can’t go home just to sleep and get back to work again”
Calvin: “but mommy it’s not comfy at all”
Mom: “Calvin now you have to learn to give thanks to the Lord, He bless you with a house, a bed to sleep on, food whenever you are hungry but not those people, they works so hard but they earn little money”
Calvin: “oh yeah!”

Ini pertama kalinya aku liat Calvin kek tersentuh gitu…anak yang aktif itu tiba" jadi diam...dia kek sadar…tapi rasa sedih buat para construction worker lebih besar

Mom: “so what do you think? What can we do for them?”
Calvin: “Mommy let’s go to the bank and take money”
Mom: “What for?!”
Calvin: “buy food for them and house then bed for them”
Mom: “really?! Can’t you see, lots of them…we don’t have enough money to buy all of those things for them…”
Calvin: “but then what can we do?!” *desperado*
Mom: “PRAY! so that God will bless them the same way He bless us”

Aku liat dia jalan sambil nunduk…kayaknya berdoa…mungkin gak tahan lagi…dia tutup mata! Bgitu sampai di block kita…ada group of construction worker lagi duduk bergerombol sambil makan…

Mom: “ Calvin…go and take a look…they are eating!”

Calvin jalan mendekati para construction worker…mereka semua pada noleh…dan dia say “Hi”…dibalas bebarangen ama mereka “Hiiiiiiii…”

Setelah itu Calvin Lari. Loncat. Dancing. Tangannya dia angkat keatas…tapi…gak ada suara! Keliatan air mata mulai keluar tapi gak meleleh

Mom: “what’s going on?!”
Calvin: “They are eating!!! I was praying and Jesus answer my pray!”

Aku speechles…
. senang: dia alami semua ini
. bingung: gimana arahin tapi gak bohong

Mom:”Well Calv I think we can do something for them”
Calvin: “what’s that mommy?!” *excited tones*
Mom: “you know we have saved some money for your birthday party, maybe we can use it to buy special food and give it to them on your Birthday”
Calvin: “YEAH!!! THAT’S A GREAT IDEA MOMMY!!!’
*jumping and dancing again*
Mom: “but that means you won’t have a birthday party!”
Calvin: “its OK mommy…I don’t want a party anymore…let’s buy for them food!”

He was running back home and telling his Daddy the things that he saw and the great idea

Well…sampe sekarag kita belum sempat lakukan that great idea…let’s see maybe next week…and for now I thank God for this opportunity for him to learn from the things surrounds him and I have to ask wisdom from the Holy Spirit to guide him in the truth
