Water is Coming to you
“He said, “Yahweh says, ‘Make this valley full of trenches.’ For Yahweh says, ‘You will not see wind, neither will you see rain, yet that valley will be filled with water, and you will drink, both you and your livestock and your other animals. This is an easy thing in Yahweh’s sight. He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand. You shall strike every fortified city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all springs of water, and mar every good piece of land with stones.’” In the morning, about the time of offering the sacrifice, behold, water came by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water. Now when all the Moabites heard that the kings had come up to fight against them, they gathered themselves together, all who were able to put on armor, young and old, and stood on the border. They rose up early in the morning, and the sun shone on the water, and the Moabites saw the water opposite them as red as blood. They said, “This is blood. The kings are surely destroyed, and they have struck each other. Now therefore, Moab, to the plunder!” When they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and struck the Moabites, so that they fled before them; and they went forward into the land attacking the Moabites.” (2 Kings 3:16-24 WEB)
The Israel army coalition had no water to drink for seven days. They were thirsty and asked the prophet Elisha to inquire of the Lord Yahweh.
The Lord’s instruction was to make the valley full of trenches, in preparation to collect the water.
Yet you may wonder where is the water going to come from if there is no wind or rain?
Sometimes, when the Lord asks you to get into position, just do it without trying to reason it out.
He said to make the valley full of trenches, meaning GET READY TO RECEIVE.
How much water do you want to catch? The more trenches you dig, the more water you will store, if not the water will come, but it will just flow away.
The Lord allows you to choose how much you want to act upon His rhema word. If you have faith, you will make the valley of your life full of trenches, ready to receive from Him.
The water came by the way of Edom. It is not your job to know how the water comes. The point is, the water WILL come because the Lord has commanded it.
The water had a double purpose for the Israel coalition. It satiated their thirst, and it also became an important military tactic used by the Lord to defeat Israel’s enemies.
The water that you collect in the coming days will enable you to defeat enemies in your life.
Everyone’s “trenches” are different—you will know what yours is. Whatever the Lord has put into your heart to do, remember that you can choose how much water you will collect, based on how many trenches you make.
Do not waste time questioning, “How will the water come? How is it possible?” The water is coming so it is time to get in position!

EDITOR
EditorTranslated
Masa RMO ni aku tengok balik dokumentar favourite, ada mamat ni tengah cakap pasal editing, dia kata great editing skills akan protect seseorang pengarah dari bunuh diri. Mamat tu nama dia Sean Penn.
“The essence of cinema is editing” tu kata Coppola pula.
Dulu aku terjebak dengan film editing sebab aku terjumpa fasal Sergei Eisenstein, salah seorang pengarah terawal dunia yang menitikberatkan skills editing untuk menyampaikan maksud dan menyuntik emosi kepada penonton. Eisenstein antara geng-geng Soviet filmmakers yang memperkenalkan idealogi formalism ke dunia sinema.
Itu benda paling basic tentang film editing. Kemudian, seorang lelaki telah mengembangkan Soviet technique ni dan terus jadi salah seorang pengarah paling berpengaruh di sekian alam, dia adalah Alfred Hitchcock seorang genius yang berjaya crafting psychology ke dalam seni filem untuk mewujudkan rasa suspense.
Dunia semakin menjadi complex. Teknik penyuntingan juga semakin evolve. Lalu muncul editor era modern cinema sekarang ni. Aku letak sikit list film editor yang masih aktif kat sini untuk siapa-siapa yang minat research fasal seni menyunting ;
1. Thelma Schoonmark, ni nenek orang dah ni bro! Umur 80 tahun, tapi steady je dia edit The Irishman. Dia start jadi editor untuk Martin Scorsese masa dia belajar kat universiti lagi. Lebih 50 tahun punya collaboration.
2. Michael Kahn, seorang atok berumur 84 tahun yang masih lagi aktif mengedit sampai ke hari ni. Dia ni penyunting untuk Steven Spielberg.
3. Walter Murch, seorang figure paling penting untuk community editors & sound designers sekarang. Dia ni berjaya connects the dot between science & art into his crafts. Aku rekemenkan untuk korang baca buku dia, In the Blink of an Eye. Sebab ni buku yang terpenting untuk seorang editor zaman moden.
Kenapa aku guna tiga editor ni sebagai subject yang boleh dijadikan rujukan?. Sebab ketiga-tiga editor ni ada kekuatan masing-masing untuk kau faham kerja sebagai penyunting.
Thelma Schoonmark ni mementingkan tentang leadership in the cutting room. Macam mana dia control powerhouse director macam Scorsese untuk dengar cakap dia tu sangat amazing. Thelma bersifat keibuan sikit, tiap hari dia akan ke film set untuk lepak dengan conty girl. Dari situ dia akan dapat information apa yang Scorsese tengah buat kat set tanpa kacau pengarah tu. Dan benda penting Thelma ajar, seorang editor kena banyak mendengar, cuba faham betul-betul apa yang director explain sebelum kau argue. Cara dia mendengar seorang budak tengah bercerita, sebab seorang director tu memang bersifat expressive macam budak kecik, jadi kena bagi extra attention kat dia. SEORANG EDITOR PERLU MENDENGAR.
Michael Kahn pula dia menekankan tentang feel bila susun shots Tak macam Thelma Schoonmark, Kahn tak turun ke set. Ini supaya dia boleh bagi pure new perspective to the story. Editing adalah puzzle toys yang Kahn main dari dia muda sampai la tua. Edit film main dengan every frame. Raw footage - sekadar ambil contoh - durasi 10 saat, kalau pengarah shoot in 24fps, jadi total frame untuk shot tu adalah 240 frames. Then another raw footage - just put any number - 120 frames. So total adalah 360 frames tu adalah playground untuk kau adjust here and there. Then, tolak sana, tambah sini follow apa kau rasa. Other advice, if you never make alterations to your cut, kau confirm tak akan dapat the best cut. Nasihat dia paling penting ialah don’t edit from knowledge, edit from feeling. SEORANG EDITOR PERLU ADA FEEL.
Walter Murch pula berjaya create workflow yang sangat effective untuk editing. Dia cipta the rule of 6 (google sendiri) untuk kau buat analyzing dapat cut best ke tak. Dia juga suka edit tanpa audio even ada dialog sekali pun, so dia read lip apa actor tu cakap. Cara ni kau akan dapat purest cut untuk membantu kau judge yang cut yang kau buat tu tanpa ada extra element. Maksudnya, bila cut kau tu tak ada apa-apa perencah lagi dah best, so bila kau tambah benda lain konfirm create attractive cut yang ranum ditengok. Tapi jangan terlebih letak macam-macam. Masakan pun jahanam kalau letak benda pelik-pelik. Murch kata yang edit filem sekarang ni semua orang boleh buat, sebab dia sangat simple akan tetapi untuk menjadikan editing tu ke higher level, it requires the same dedication and persistence that any art form does. SEORANG EDITOR PERLU ADA ANALYTICAL MIND.
Okay borak fasal technique ni boring sikit la, sebab bukan semua orang kisah tentang art of editing pun.
Aku rephase balik kata Stanley Kubrick, “I love editing. I think I like it more than any other phase of film making. If I wanted to be frivolous, I might say that everything that precedes editing is merely a way of producing film to edit.” Sebab tu la ramai yang setuju hakikat bahawasanya films are made in the cutting room.
Aku bukan kata proses lain tu tak penting. Tapi editing proses terakhir sebelum filem dijadikan tontonan kepada umum. Kalau skrip kau salah, kau boleh adjust masa kat set. Kau shoot salah, then kau boleh adjust kat edit. Tapi bila edit kau salah? Kau nak adjust kat pawagam ke apa? Tapi jangan la jadi pembaris sangat untuk interpret yang kau boleh ambik ringgan bahagian yang lain atau suka main petik the famous word fix in post!.
Tanam ni dalam kepala otak semua ya, kalau bahagian scripting dah problem lepas tu shooting problem jugak, maka itulah neraka paling jahanam untuk editor. Segala beban tu dah berlonggok kat editor. Maka muntah hijaulah mereka-mereka ini.
Hatta muntah pelangi sekali pun, adalah menjadi tanggungjawab editor untuk pastikan filem tu dalam keadaan yang paling baik. Maka dengan itu, producer pun kena la bagi something sikit. Kalau tak dapat adjust budget, adjust lah timeline yang lebih panjang. Kalau best dapat bagi dua-dua sekali gus. Happy editor can create good movie kan?
So editing ni adalah tempat yang menentukan movie itu made or broken. Banyak filem diselamatkan dan sebenarnya lebih banyak dijahanamkan secara tak sengaja dalam editing room.
Jadi tahukah anda mengenai peristiwa tentang satu filem yang berjudul Annie Hall atau judul asalnya Anehonia (tak best langsung nama tajuk ni). Filem ni hampir jadi mimpi ngeri buat Woody Allen. Nasib Allen selamat sebab ada Ralph Rosenblum kat sebelah dia, a skillful experience film editor yang dah kerja dengan sorang lagi director power, Sydney Lumet.
Original duration filem Anehonia ni 150 minit, plot asal pasal murder mystery. Tapi producer/co-writer, Marshall Brickman naik angin bila preview final offline edit. Dia guna kad producer untuk suruh Rosenblum buang semua crime scene then go with different direction, sampailah final output jadi 93 minit dengan genre yang lain terus, rom-com!.
Korang tahu kan apa jadi next?
Woody Allen menang Academy Awards for directing, Brickman menang best original screenplay, dan filem tu sendiri menang best film. Tok Woody Allen menang untuk semua major awards untuk tahun tu. Hanya dengan kuasa Tuhan sahaja yang telah menyelamatkan filem ni sampailah dia jadi cult movie yang bagi huge influence pada ramai filmmaker sampai ke hari ni.
Tapi ada lagi benda kelakar dorang buat.
15 tahun selepas kejayaan besar Annie Hall, Allen dengan Brickman buat balik filem yang dorang buang half dulu. Depa adjust-adjust idea dalam tong sampah tu jadi filem Manhattan Murder Mystery, another masterpiece yang bergolek-golek datang kaki dorang.
Selain tu, sebuah filem yang menjadi landmark counterculture dan juga antara karya terhebat sepanjang sejarah peradaban dunia. Filem tu berjudul Easy Rider, ia juga dibikin dalam cutting room. Filem tu mengambil masa setahun untuk diedit, dengan footage yang nak dipilih sebanyak 80 jam dan dijadikan sebuah cerita berdurasi 95 minit.
Another story berlaku pada Februari 1977, George Lucas ajak kawan-kawan baik dia untuk tengok rough cut filem terbaru dia. Antara diajak ialah Spielberg dan De Palma yang masing-masing excited dengan air tangan Lucas lepas kejayaan filem American Graffiti. Then dorang pun layan lah rough cut tu. Lepas habis preview agak krik-krik, tapi dalam ramai kawan-kawan tu De Palma ni asshole sikit, dia kutuk Lucas sebab bikin filem sampah. Semua orang dalam bilik preview tu mengumpat pasal Lucas, kecuali Spielberg yang dia kata “wei aku suka je filem hang ni, tapi nampaknya aku sekor je la yang suka ni.” Begitulah Spielberg sopan santun orangnya. Lucas tahu je Spielberg tengah ambik hati dia yang tengah kecewa tu. Next, dia pun terus buang editor yang buat dia kena kutuk tu. Tapi ni kan George Lucas bro, so dia tak ada problem sangat nak settlekan issue editing ni, sebab dia kenal ramai editor yang power. Dan lagi satu, Lucas ada trump card kat poket, bini dia sendiri pun awards winning editor, Maria Lucas - tapi tengah berehat sebab baru keguguran. Lalu dengan penuh rasa dendam kat kawan-kawan yang tengah ketawakan dia, Lucas bawa masuk antara editor terbaik era new hollywood, Paul Hirsch, Richard Chew dan Maria Lucas sendiri yang kena kerja. Akhirnya lahirlah filem yang menjadi kegilaan satu dunia, iaitu Star Wars.
Jadi ingat, classic case Annie Hall, Easy Rider dan Star Wars ni. Director hebat-hebat semua tu ya.
So dengan kata mudahnya, hal-hal macam ni kalau nak jadi, director power macam mana pun tetap akan berlaku juga. Dalam production film tak semua yang kau rancang tu berjalan lancar, confirm ada hiccup here and there. Kebanyakkan damage ni kau tak nampak lagi masa shooting ya sahabat.
Then hakikat yang paling kejam ialah bila kau dah habis shoot, pastu baru start masuk editing room, now tangible damages can be measured accurately. Di sini ramai filmmaker yang terduduk, termasuk lah aku sendiri yang pernah beberapa kali kena. Saat ni lah penyesalan tu datang berlumba-lumba!
Akhirnya, kita semua cuba set up the best plan dan masa execution pun dah terbaik kita buati. Tapi semuanya dah bergantung pada Tuhan. Kalau Dia setuju, maka tercipta lah filem tu ikut macam mana yang Dia kata okay.
Kalau Tuhan sayang kau lebih sikit dari orang lain, Dia bagi secubis cabaran untuk kau harung. Biar reflect pada diri sendiri sebab lepas ni kau jadi lebih kuat untuk masuk next level pulak.
Jadi itulah kasih sayang Tuhan bagi kat Nam Ron dan Bront masa nak siapkan One Two Jaga.
Filem yang menang kesemua anugerah dalam Malaysia dan ditayangkan dipelbagai festival filem luar negara ni mengambil masa dekat dua tahun di post production untuk disiapkan. Aku jadi saksi tengok darah, peluh dan air mata yang tertumpah. Masa tu, hari-hari muka Nam Ron jadi macam pak cik umur 70 tahun dah, Bront pulak putih habis misai rambut dia. Tapi tu la filmmakers ni, hati dia kering, redah je sampai habis walau pedih mana pun.
Jadi bila time macam sekarang ni, time aku baring-baring tak buat apa-apa. Baru la paham apa yang Tuhan suruh aku ponder sikit pasal benda yang jadi depan mata hari tu.
Kalau aku rajin, aku cerita pulak cara kami solvekan problem ni.
Salam!

Stay humble and sober, admitting that everything good you have is because of God’s grace, not because of yourself. The higher you’re promoted, the more you have to stay rooted in Grace—if not it’s a long way down to fall...
King Nebuchadnezzar was allowed to increase to rule the most powerful empire of his time.
The moment he tried to take the credit for Babylon’s power and majesty, he became mad and the kingdom was ripped from his hands.
“At the end of twelve months he was walking in the royal palace of Babylon. The king spoke and said, Is not this great Babylon, which I have built for the royal dwelling place, by the might of my power and for the glory of my majesty? While the word was in the king’s mouth, a voice came from the sky, saying, “O king Nebuchadnezzar, to you it is spoken: The kingdom has departed from you. You shall be driven from men; and your dwelling shall be with the animals of the field. You shall be made to eat grass as oxen. Seven times shall pass over you, until you know that the Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and gives it to whomever he will.” This was fulfilled the same hour on Nebuchadnezzar. He was driven from men, and ate grass as oxen, and his body was wet with the dew of the sky, until his hair had grown like eagles’ feathers, and his nails like birds’ claws. At the end of the days I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted up my eyes to heaven, and my understanding returned to me, and I blessed the Most High, and I praised and honored him who lives forever; for his dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom from generation to generation.” (Daniel 4:29-34 WEB)
It really doesn’t matter who is the one ruling because it’s a gift of Grace—God supplies everything needed.
Humility is to regard yourself as nothing but to esteem God as everything.
By ourselves we can’t do anything, but through Jesus we can do all things.
In the end, Nebuchadnezzar still gained from the whole seven years of madness because he humbled himself and placed his faith in the true God—he was saved.
Some lessons we learn the easy way by hearing, believing and applying straightaway. Other lessons we learn the hard way because of stubbornness—through suffering, and finally admitting that only God can and we can’t.
Whether easy or hard, what matters is that we learn to trust God in everything. He is always for us, in us and working through us.
