Since the age of ten, Dida has a great painting skill. He has received several prizes from several painting competitions in Jakarta and other big cities in Indonesia, including overseas. Lucky he always won first prize.

However, his talent of painting did not last long. Why? At that time the school Dida will hold a school holiday event, ie a picnic to the Peak. As a student of the school, Dida also participated bertamsya, enliven entourage from school.

The children looked cheerful. Some are singing, some are guessing, and some are chatting. All show a happy face. Why? Because they are all up grade. Father and Mother The teacher of the counselor also rejoiced to see his students cheering and singing.

Satisfied they enjoy the view at Puncak, they all get back into the bus to go back to Bandung. Like a proverbial, unlucky, unfortunate can not be denied. Suddenly their bus front tire broke and the bus hit a tree, then plunged into the rice field. There are two people who died. Some of the passengers were slightly injured, and some were seriously injured. How is Dida, the talented young painter? He was hospitalized because of the severe injuries on his face. He was hospitalized. According to doctors, he will experience a lifelong disability. His eyes are blind.

Both parents feel sad because Dida can not channel his talent of painting. A year after the accident, Dida still can not paint. He felt sad.

Suddenly, Dida's parents have some sense. They put an ad in a newspaper. "Who can donate his eyes, there will be a high reward."

A month after the advertisement was published in the newspaper, a letter came to Dida's house. The letter was written by someone who explained that the only daughter had died. He will donate his eyes to Dida.

After Dida underwent surgery and managed to see again, Dida started again continue her talent of painting. Whenever there was free time, Dida always painted a girl about her age. There are many painting poses about the girl. Painting by Dida is a lot of devotees. In fact, a prominent hotel once offered to hold a painting exhibition by Dida. However, all the paintings on the girl's theme do not want Dida to sell, although many are offering it for a high price. No one knows why Dida would not sell the little girl-themed painting.

One time while Dida thought about herself, her father rebuked.
"Dida, it looks like you're sad. What are you thinking, son? "
"Sir, Dida wants to go to Semarang, want to visit the Titi family. At the same time want to see the grave Titi. He is so meritorious that Dida can continue his hobby of painting, "Dida replied.

A few days later, using a train, Dida and her parents went to Semarang, to stay in touch and to visit Titi's grave, the girl whose eyes were donated.
Arriving in Semarang, with the inter-Titi family, Dida and his parents visited Titi and prayed for him. Not long after that, they returned to Titi's house.

A painting of a young girl by Dida was handed over to the Titi family. As soon as Titi's parents received the painting, they were startled. It looked exactly like the face of the deceased Titi, who died a few years ago.
"Where do you know Titi's face?" Asked his father Titi, astonished.
"No photos or pictures of Titi, sir. Every spare moment, Dida always paint in the dreams, a little girl the age of Titi, "Dida replied.

This amazing event indeed made the people there praise the power of God. Just imagine, Dida is in Bandung, while Titi is in Semarang. The two did not know each other and had never met.
However, once Dida gets an eye donation from the Titi family, Dida paints without an example and the painting is exactly the same as Titi's face.
