Jangan Biarkan Gangguan Menghalangi Anda untuk Mendapatkan Berkat Allah


16 Agustus 2018

Bacaan Hari ini:
Amsal 4: 5 “Perolehlah hikmat, perolehlah pengertian, jangan lupa, dan jangan menyimpang dari perkataan mulutku.”


Salah satu ujian terpenting yang kita semua hadapi ketika kita mencoba untuk melaksanakan panggilan dari Tuhan ialah bagaimana kita merespon gangguan budaya. Pernahkah Anda mengalaminya; Anda hilang fokus karena gangguan ini?

Gangguan popularitas. Apabila Anda selalu khawatir dengan pendapat orang lain tentang Anda, maka tidak akan ada damai sejahtera di hati Anda. 

Gangguan kesenangan. Bersenang-senang dan menikmati kenyamanan itu sah-sah saja, namun jika itu adalah fokus utama dalam hidup Anda, maka Anda tidak akan pernah bisa mewujudkan panggilan hidup Anda. 

Gangguan uang. Anda tidak bisa melayani Tuhan dan uang sekaligus. Menghasilkan uang seharusnya tidak menjadi fokus utama hidup Anda.

Gangguan harta benda. Menilai kesuksesan Anda dari seberapa banyak barang yang Anda miliki akan membuat Anda terus khawatir tentang menjaganya dan mempertahankannya. 

Jika Anda mau memenuhi misi yang Tuhan berikan kepada Anda, maka Anda harus berani menjadi berbeda dari orang lain. Tetaplah fokus pada hal yang paling penting: relas iAnda dengan Yesus Kristus.

Renungkan hal ini:
- Mana dari gangguan-gangguan tadi yang menghalangi Anda untuk memperoleh yang terbaik dari Tuhan atas hidup Anda?
- Cara-cara praktis apa yang perlu Anda ambil untuk membantu meminimalkan gangguan-gangguan itu dalam hidup Anda?
- Berdoalah agar Tuhan memberi Anda keberanian untuk menjadi berbeda dan berani melawan standar budaya.



Bacaan Alkitab Setahun :
Mazmur 93-95; Roma 16

Mana yang Anda pilih? Menyenangkan hati Tuhan atau menyenangkan hati sesama?
(Diterjemahkan dari Daily Devotional by Rick Warren)

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 ...
