KISAH 3 POHON

*KISAH 3 POHON*

*Alkisah, ada tiga pohon di dalam hutan.*

*Suatu hari, ketiganya saling menceritakan mengenai harapan & impian mereka.*

*Pohon pertama berkata: "Kelak aku ingin menjadi peti harta karun. Aku akan diisi emas, perak & berbagai batu permata & semua orang  mengagumi keindahannya".*

*Kemudian pohon ke2 berkata: "Suatu hari kelak aku akan menjadi sebuah kapal yg besar.*
*Aku akan mengangkut raja2 dan berlayar ke ujung dunia. Aku akan menjadi kapal yg kuat & setiap orang merasa aman berada dekat dgnku".*

*Lalu giliran pohon ke3 yg menyampaikan impiannya: "Aku ingin tumbuh menjadi pohon yang tertinggi di hutan di puncak bukit.* *Orang2 akan memandangku & berpikir betapa aku begitu dekat utk menggapai surga & TUHAN. Aku akan menjadi pohon terbesar sepanjang masa dan orang2 akan mengingatku" .*

*Setelah beberapa tahun berdoa agar impian terkabul, sekelompok. penebang pohon datang & menebang ketiga pohon itu.*

*Pohon pertama dibawa ke tukang kayu. Ia sangat senang sebab ia tahu bahwa ia akan dibuat menjadi peti harta karun.*
*Tetapi doanya tdk menjadi kenyataan karena tukang kayu membuatnya menjadi kotak tempat menaruh makanan ternak. Ia hanya diletakkan dikandang & setiap hari diisi dgn jerami.*

*Pohon ke2 dibawa ke galangan kapal. Ia berpikir bahwa doanya menjadi kenyataan.*
*Tetapi ia dipotong2 dan dibuat menjadi sebuah perahu nelayan yg sangat kecil.*
*Impiannya menjadi kapal besar utk mengangkut raja-raja telah berakhir.*

*Pohon ke3 dipotong menjadi potongan2 kayu besar & dibiarkan teronggok dlm gelap.*

*Tahun demi tahun berganti  ketiga pohon itu telah melupakan impiannya masing2.*

*Kemudian suatu hari, sepasang suami istri tiba di kandang. Sang istri melahirkan dan meletakkan bayinya di kotak tempat makanan ternak yg dibuat dari pohon pertama.*
*Orang2 datang & menyembah bayi itu.*

*Akhirnya pohon pertama sadar bahwa di dalamnya telah diletakkan harta terbesar sepanjang masa.*

*Bertahun2 kemudian, sekelompok laki2 naik ke atas perahu nelayan yg dibuat dr pohon kedua. Di tengah danau, badai besar datang & pohon ke2 berfikir bahwa ia tdk cukup kuat utk melindungi orang2 di dalamnya.*

*Tetapi salah seorang laki-laki itu berdiri & berkata kpd badai: "Diam!!!" Tenanglah". Dan badai itupun berhenti.*

*Ketika itu tahulah bahwa ia telah mengangkut Raja di atas segala raja.*

*Akhirnya seseorang datang dan mengambil pohon ke3. Ia dipikul sepanjang jalan sementara orang2 mengejek lelaki yg memikulnya. Laki2 itu dipakukan di kayu ini & mati dipuncak bukit.*

*Akhirnya pohon ketiga sadar bahwa ia demikian dekat dgn TUHAN, karena YESUS-lah yg disalibkan padanya.*

*KETIKA KEADAAN TDK SEPERTI YG ENGKAU INGINKAN, KETAHUILAH BAHWA TUHAN MEMILIKI RENCANA UNTUKMU.*

*JIKA ENGKAU PERCAYA PADA-NYA, IA AKAN MEMBERIMU BERKAT2 BESAR.*

*KETIGA POHON MENDAPATKAN APA YG MEREKA INGINKAN, TETAPI TDK DGN CARA YG SEPERTI MEREKA BAYANGKAN.*

*BEGITU JUGA DGN KITA, KITA TDK SELALU TAHU APA RENCANA TUHAN BAGI KITA.*

*KITA HANYA TAHU BAHWA JALAN-NYA BUKANLAH JALAN KITA, TETAPI JALAN-NYA ADALAH YG TERBAIK BAGI KITA, SELAMANYA.*

*Semoga renungan ini menjadi berkat MENJELANG NATAL bagi kita semua.*
*Tuhan berkati*

The Painting of Destiny

"Are you sure of this, Navan?" The old pirate stared at King Mannas' chief merchant. However, his bright emerald green eyes sparkled with laughter. "The information came from Daoud, one of my former crew members, when I was ravaging the coastal villages of Vyrone." Navan smiled at the expression crossing Gerrod's face, whose family had fled from one of these villages. The Iron Falcon was a legend and parents had always used the threat of its crew and its flaming-haired captain to scare naughty children into sleeping and behaving differently. Gerrod quickly recovered and smiled. "Then he must be a man to be trusted, indeed." "Ah!" cried Navan. "Daoud will take the coin from the mouth of a dead man while it is still warm. I trust him only because he knows the fate of him who lies to me." I may have made him captain when I decided to infiltrate King Mannas' court, but he still knows who is in charge. "We must tell ...
