Creator’S Dream Thesis: The Kidney Story
()
About this ebook
Author Jonathan Prawiromaruto has been forced to confront his own mortality all his life, as he was born afflicted with kidney failure. Even so, thanks to the faith in Christ instilled in him by his loving Christian parents, Jonathan continues to thrive as a living witness to the power of hope and faith. His story has been the source of limitless inspiration to many who may have lost sight of their dreams, but his ministry has only just begun.
Now, at nineteen years old, Jonathan has risen to a new challenge to produce his autobiographical testament to the power and willingness of God to work miracles in the lives of his children.
He writes with the belief that each individual is uniquely and especially created by God to fulfill his plan. Only you can fulfill the task you were created for, so never lose hope. Dont give up on your dreams. Rise up and make them real!

The Kidney Story

Dedication
To
My parents Herman and Lie Sien Prawiromaruto
Who bore me, nurtured me and sacrificially saved my life
I am especially grateful
To my mother who gave me one of her kidneys
Demonstrating the heart and example of my Creator
I want to thank all my friends
That supported me and gave me a reason to fight
and for those people
Who were there in my transplant journey
Who were there in the darkest days of my life

I was arguing with myself in the writing this book, since I thought I was so young, too young maybe, only 17 years old at that time.

That verse led me to the conviction to write a book. After 6 months of arguing with myself I came to a point of courage and took a step to produce Creator’s Dream Thesis (my first book). I want to share my life story with my readers, inspire them and motivate people to live a life of purpose. I’m trying to be as transparent and vulnerable as
