Renungan Tuhan Tahu Yang Kita Alami

Baca: Yesaya 40:1-11

"Seperti seorang gembala Ia menggembalakan kawanan ternakNya dan menghimpunkannya dengan tanganNya; anak-anak domba dipangkuNya, induk-induk doba dituntunNya dengan hati-hati." (Yesaya 40:11)

Tuhan tahu setiap langkah hidup kita. Kesedihan, sakit, penderitaan atau kesendirian yang kita alami pun turut dirasakanNya. KasihNya kekal tak pernah berubah! Bagaimana pun kita dan berapa jauh kita telah salah melangkah tidak masalah bagiNya. Kegagalan kita tidak mengubah karakterNya. Asal kita dengan tulus datang kepadaNya dan merindukanNya, Dia bersedia menjadi Gembala kita. 

Sebagai Gembala, Tuhan tidak mengendalikan domba-dombaNya tetapi membimbing dengan lemah lembut. "...Ia menggembalakan kawanan ternakNya dan menghimpunkannya dengan tanganNya; anak-anak domba dipangkuNya, induk-induk domba dituntunNya dengan hati-hati." (ayat nas). Ketika kita tersesat dan kehilangan arah Dia akan menggendong dan menolong kita dengan kelembutanNya. Tuhan sangat peduli kesesakan yang menimpa kita sekalipun orang lain tidak mempedulikannya. TelingaNya mendengar setiap erangan dan jeritan kita.

Ketika bangsa Israel sangat menderita karena perbudakan di Mesir, Tuhan juga tahu dan sangat peduli. FirmanNya kepada Musa, "Aku telah memperhatikan dengan sungguh kesengsaraan umatKu di tanah Mesir, dan Aku telah mendengar seruan mereka yang disebabkan oleh pengerah-pengerah mereka, ya, Aku mengetahui penderitaan mereka." (Keluaran 3:7). Tuhan pun bertindak menolong bangsa Israel. "Sebab itu Aku telah turun untuk melepaskan mereka dari tangan orang Mesir dan menuntun mereka keluar dari negeri itu ke suatu negeri yang baik dan luas, suatu negeri yang berlimpah-limpah susu dan madunya, ke tempat orang Kanaan, orang Het, orang Amori, orang Feris, orang Hewi dan orang Yebus." (Keluaran 3:8).

Sungguh, Tuhan sebagai penolong dalam kesesakan sangat terbukti! Sebagaimana Tuhan memperhatikan dan menyelamatkan bangsa Israel, demikian juga Dia sanggup menolong kita.

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 ...
