Renungan Mukjizat Tuhan Tidak Pernah Berakhir

Baca: Lukas 9:37-43a

“Maka takjublah semua orang itu karena kebesaran Allah.” (Lukas 9:43a)

Sekarang ini adalah era modernisasi. Semua serba modern. Ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi semakin canggih. Bermunculan pula pakar dan ilmuwan di bidangnya masing-masing dengan kemampuan luar biasa yang tak perlu disangsikan lagi. Akhirnya banyak orang yang menjadi sangat bergantung pada kepintaran dan kecanggihan teknologi yang ada. Rasa-rasanya mujizat Tuhan mulai diabaikan, orang lebih percaya kepada pengetahuan dan cara berpikir para pakar atau ilmuwan yang mengandalkan logika. Tetapi sesungguhnya mujizat Tuhan tak pernah berakhir dan tetap ada bagi orang percaya.

Pada suatu hari Yesus bertemu seorang bapak yang anaknya kerasukan setan sehingga menjadi bisu dan sangat tersiksa. Bapak itu ingin anaknya sembuh, namun ia ragu-ragu apakah Yesus dapat menyembuhkannya karena katanya, “...aku telah meminta kepada murid-muridMu supaya mereka mengusir roh itu, tetapi mereka tidak dapat.” (ayat 40). Lalu ia berkata kepada Yesus, “‘Sebab itu jika Engkau dapat berbuat sesuatu, tolonglah kami dan kasihanilah kami’. Jawab Yesus: ‘Katamu: Jika Engkau dapat? Tidak ada yang mustahil bagi orang percaya!’ “ (Markus 9:22b-23).

Pada kesempatan lain Yesus membuat suatu pernyataan luar biasa, “Apa yang tidak mungkin bagi manusia, mungkin bagi Allah.” (Lukas 18:27). Apabila Tuhan mengerjakan sesuatu yang tak bisa dilakukan manusia, itulah yang dinamakan mujizat. Perbuatan Tuhan merupakan mujizat bagi kita, tapi bagi Tuhan hal itu bukanlah mujizat sebab Dia dapat mengerjakan segala perkara dan apa saja. Bahkan dari yang tidak ada Tuhan sanggup mengadakan. Bumi diciptakan dari yang tidak ada, hanya oleh firmanNya saja.

Jadi, tidak ada sesuatu pun yang sukar bagi Tuhan. Bila manusia dapat terbang, itu merupakan mujizat; tetapi bagi seekor burung, terbang itu bukanlah mujizat, tapi merupakan hal yang biasa dilakukannya. Demikian juga perbuatan-perbuatan besar Tuhan, bagiNya bukanlah apa-apa, namun bagi manusia merupakan suatu keajaiban.

Selama Tuhan masih ada, mujizat masih selalu berlaku. Bila ada manusia yang berkata bahwa zaman mujizat sudah berlalu, pastilah manusia itu sudah ‘tak waras’, karena bila mujizat tak ada, berarti Tuhan juga tidak ada.

Mujizat selalu tersedia bagi orang yang percaya kepada-Nya!

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 ...
