Mukjizat Bagi Keluarga : Memahami Waktu Tuhan

Baca: Yohanes 2:1-11

"Kata Yesus kepadanya: 'Mau apakah engkau dari pada-Ku, ibu? Saat-Ku belum tiba.'" (Yohanes 2:4)

Mujizat pasti terjadi apabila Tuhan senantiasa hadir di tengah-tengah keluarga kita. Secara garis besar mujizat Tuhan bagi umat-Nya meliputi:

Mujizat Ilahi: mujizat supranatural yang dilakukan Tuhan dalam hidup orang percaya, contoh: kusta menjadi tahir, wanita pendarahan 12 tahun sembuh, buta sejak lahir dicelikkan;

Mujizat pelipatgandaan: kesanggupan Tuhan memberkati dari yang sedikit menjadi berkelimpahan seperti yang dialami oleh janda Sarat, lima roti dan dua ikan mengenyangkan lima ribu orang bahkan bersisa 12 bakul;

Mujizat pelepasan: kesanggupan Tuhan melepaskan kita dari setiap persoalan dan kesesakan. Di dalam Tuhan tidak ada persoalan yang tidak ada jalan keluarnya, sebab "Allah itu bagi kita tempat perlindungan dan kekuatan, sebagai penolong dalam kesesakan sangat terbukti." (Mazmur 46:2);

Mujizat penyertaan: Tuhan adalah Imanuel, apa pun yang terjadi Dia tidak pernah meninggalkan dan membiarkan kita, Ia akan menyertai kita sampai akhir zaman. "Aku sekali-kali tidak akan membiarkan engkau dan Aku sekali-kali tidak akan meninggalkan engkau. Sebab itu dengan yakin kita dapat berkata: 'Tuhan adalah Penolongku. Aku tidak akan takut. Apakah yang dapat dilakukan manusia terhadap aku?'" (Ibrani 13:5b-6).

Ada pertanyaan: mengapa mujizat Tuhan seolah-olah menjauh? Mengapa ekonomi kita belum dipulihkan? Mengapa sakit belum sembuh? Seringkali yang menghalangi kita untuk mengalami penggenapan janji Tuhan adalah ketidaksabaran kita menantikan waktu Tuhan. Kalimat 'saat-Ku belum tiba' adalah penegasan bahwa waktu Tuhan bukanlah waktu kita. Betapa sering kita memaksa Tuhan mengikuti waktu kita; dan ketika pertolongan Tuhan seperti terlambat kita pun berusaha mengatasi masalah dengan kekuatan sendiri atau mencari pertolongan instan kepada manusia.

Milikilah hati yang berserah kepada Tuhan, karena kehendak dan waktu Tuhan adalah yang terbaik. "Ia membuat segala sesuatu indah pada waktunya," (Pengkhotbah 3:11). Terkadang kehendak Tuhan itu sulit dimengerti, namun tetaplah taat melakukan kehendak-Nya, sebab ada upah untuk setiap ketaatan kita.

Ketika kita taat dan sabar menantikan waktu Tuhan, di situlah mujizat dinyatakan!

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 ...
