Kecewa Dengan Tuhan - Kesaksian Melitha Sidabutar (Gereja JCC Cijantung

Key wellness / self-care / productivity takeaways

• Hold onto gratitude as a stabilizer during disruption Despite family financial problems and setbacks, the speaker emphasizes being grateful for a God-loving family and continued faith.

• Process disappointment with God honestly instead of suppressing it She describes being “disappointed with God” and confused, then allowing time for understanding to come gradually.

• Seek support through community and trusted relationships A church sister helped guide her by inviting her to record a spiritual song—shown as a turning point toward healing and renewed trust.

• Use faith-based practices to reframe suffering She shares a message from the song she received: God’s plan is not accidental, and “Lord Jesus knows what’s best.” The core reframe is: surrender + belief + trust in a purposeful future.

• Turn pain into constructive expression Recording a spiritual song becomes a coping pathway—transforming confusion and grief into praise and testimony.
