BERHALA ISLAND
EPISODE 150: DAY ONE


    After marrying Ms. Melan, Podin must be able to adjust to the order of life with Ms. Melan. As a husband, of course, Podin must also follow what his wife wants. And in fact, in her daily life, Ms. Melan is not a woman as Podin had seen other women. Ms. Melan is not the kind of woman she has met. Miss Melan is not like the woman who had been married by Podin. Ms. Melan is not like Maya, the wife of the series of Podin who has destroyed her family with Isti and her children who live in the village. Unlike Maya who only indulges lust and only fulfills the desires of her earthly life. Even Ms. Melan is also not like Lesti, who is always tried by every man, and always serve other men. Even until the time he was married to Podin, Lesti was still able to do the same actions as before marrying Podin, which was to be a satisfied woman for other men.


    Of course, Podin who had a wife with such an annoying condition, and now when he married his work who only worked as a financial part in his place of business, he said, he met a woman who was not only smart, not only intelligent, not only able to solve problems in her place of business, but Ms. Melan turned out to be a woman who was really a good person, he said, women who walk with a very strong religious order, women who always perform their worship well, women who are afraid of sin, women who are afraid of mistakes, women who fear God.


    That's Miss Melan, although it seems very simple, even though Miss Melan looks physically beautiful, but in reality, it's not only beautiful in the visible body, she said, but his heart was also very good. His personality is very strong, a righteous person lives in the way of God.


    However, Podin who married Ms. Melan, apparently he began to be confused with the order of the rules of religious life, which had not been doing religious life. Podin never did any religious activities. Even Podin never do activities that smell religious. Yes, indeed the spiritual value of Podin is very lacking. Actually, religious charity that is embraced in his life since childhood until now becomes an adult, or more appropriate to start old, in his life that has been married many times, and has been married, indeed, Podin never practiced religious worship at all.


    Even when married to Isti, his first wife, and already had four children, Podin had never set foot in a house of worship at all. Podin has never been to a mosque or church, nor any other place of worship. Even Podin had never washed his feet with ablution water, even though he claimed to be Muslim. At that time, Podin only knew religion in KTP. Even married many times, he also never understood sharia in his religious teachings. There was no religious ritual she did. Even Lebaran also does not do Id prayers together with other residents.


    That was the life of Podin at that time, who had never performed religious sharia in his life. However, now after Podin married Ms. Melan, whose marriage was ecclesiastical, who also received blessings from the pastor, and also received marriage sermons from his pastor. And of course, Podin felt that his heart began to be touched by the words of the priest, beginning to be touched by the invitation to perform religious worship activities.


    "Well, tomorrow we go to church, yes .." said Ms. Melan, his new wife, Podin, who has been called papah-mamah, invited Podin to perform Sunday morning worship at the church.


    "To the church ...? I don't know how ..." answered Podin who of course he beryerus light if indeed himself it does not know how the procedure for praying to the church. And indeed for Podin, whose name was to the church only this time he heard. Even before, let alone going to church, to the mosque or to other places of worship, Podin had never been at all. Indeed, in terms of faith, in terms of belief, in terms of belief, in terms of religious teachings, Podin is still zero at all.


    "Yes, Pah .... We pray in the church. We pray Sunday morning. Don't worry .... Anyway just come, then just follow everything that is there. Easy, really .." said Ms. Melan to Podin, which of course in a soft voice, a sweet invitation, a non-pushy invitation. But of course the call directly pierced into the heart of Podin.


    "But, Mah .... I never knew how? I don't know at all. If I am wrong, how?" podin said that of course reasoned that he could not do, because he did not know at all.


    "But, I .... Waduh ..., how, yeah ...? I don't know at all, Mah ...." Podin still reasoned, of course it was heavy for Podin to perform religious worship. Because it was all this time that Podin's heart had not been opened. Podin's heart was still shrouded in darkness.


    And of course, when he was married to Ms. Melan, in fact, his wife was a religious woman, a woman who obeyed spiritual teachings, a woman who is very afraid of God, so even if she is now married to Podin who does not know the religion at all, Ms. Melan tried to invite her husband. Ms. Melan tried to resuscitate her husband. Ms. Melan is trying to provide safety for her husband.


    Of course it's not that easy. And of course taking her husband who has been struggling with the treasure is more difficult for Ms. Melan, because indeed Podin already feel enough. Rich people often forget God. But when it is difficult, he will come closer and ask God for help. That's human. And of course, Podin did not know the name God at all.


    "Life is only for a moment, Pah .... We are creatures of God. We were created by God, we are to obey the creator. We obey God. Our duty in this world is to praise and magnify the name of the Lord. So that later, in the last days, we will be saved. Rescue is not as easy as people talk about. We can only be saved if we believe in Him. But if our hearts are closed, our hearts do not want to believe, then we will get hurt, we can not be saved, we will go into hell fire." said Ms. Melan, who was the first to die, which of course began to advise Podin, so that her husband would be invited to serve in the church.


    Indeed, although Podin never entered the house of worship, at least he had heard how later in the last days, on the day of the apocalypse. Surely Podin knew about heaven and hell. If he sins, he will go to hell, and if he worships, he will go to heaven. And now, his wife began to talk about hell. It must have also pierced the heart of Podin. And of course, Podin began to think about the invitation of worship by his wife.


    "Yes, Mah .... But then don't be mocked, yeah .... Later if I can't, don't be insulted" said Podin who certainly still hesitated to go follow his wife.


    "There's nothing wrong, Papah .... In worship there is nothing wrong .... There is no one who cannot worship. Everything is easy .... Try .... Papah has never tried, anyway .... Later if Papah has entered the church, there will be nothing Papah will say, this is difficult .... Papah would say, oh, it was easy ..." said Ms. Melan who again motivated her husband to worship in church with her.


    Finally, Podin could not dodge. Podin who is in love with Ms. Melan, Podin who really crave to have a wife like Ms. Melan, a beautiful woman, smart, and able to solve all her company's problems, he said, the sincere and sincere woman, the immature woman, the earnest working woman, has melted the heart of Podin. Now, Podin went to church with his wife. Of course, that day was the first day that Podin knew God. The first day that Podin entered the house of worship. The first day that Podin worshiped. The first day that Odin worshipped God.
