Malam itu aku bertemu Tuhan
(Ah...., Dia menemukanku, si domba bodoh yang mencari jalan sendiri...)
Dia menemukanku, terpuruk dalam kegelapan
SenyumNya memancarkan penerimaan
"Mari sini, kau yang terluka penuh jejas"
Tak sanggup aku menatap muliaNya
hingga saat
Ia memelukku
dengan tubuh yang hancur penuh bilur
"Aku kenal setiap retak dan robek di hatimu"
"Untuk itulah tubuhku menanggung dera dan pilu"
Sejuta kata takkan sanggup mendeskripsikan indahnya pertemuan itu
dan luapan syukur yang memancar dari hatiku
Malam itu aku bertemu Tuhan
Ia meneguhkan hatiku yang retak dihantam berbagai peristiwa dan tanya
Dan atas jawabNya aku meminta
Biarlah kelak anak-anakku juga mendapat pengalaman serupa:
merasakan Kasih yang Sempurna dan jatuh cinta denganNya
Biarlah kelak mereka melayaniNya dengan sepenuh jiwa
Amin, Bapa
Terimalah Abigail dan Elijah
jadi milikMu semata

mencariMU
sebatang pohon sunyi di tengah buana
merentang tangan ringkihnya ke surga
menggapai jemari rapuhnya yang berdaun sehanya
mencoba menyibak rahasia
di sanakah Engkau, Kekasihku?
dalam badai yang mencerabut saudara-saudaraku?
dalam api yang menghangus gunungku?
dalam amarah bumi yang menggoncang harapanku?
dan dalam goyahku Kau membelaiku
lembut dalam semilir yang sendu
"di sini Aku
tak pernah lepas memelukmu"
sebatang pohon sunyi di tengah buana
makin erat mencengkram bumi imannya
makin kuat menantang dunia
makin tinggi menyambut cakrawala

Strength in Tribulation
Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.
(1 Peter 5:6-11,NIV)
Hari ini jalan buntu menghadang.
My mind is blunt.
I usually go forward with full confidence in faith. I usually got several ideas to solve problems. But this time, the road is totally blocked. Not even a string of light went thru this darkened space.
All words of comfort that I used to say to strengthen my brothers n sisters seems all came back to me, lingering in my head, but none has bring me comfort.
I felt helpless.
Aku tahu, sekaligus tak tahu apa yang Tuhan mau.
Aku mengerti, sekaligus tak mengerti apa yang Tuhan maksud.
Namun pagi ini Ia mengunci kekhawatiranku dengan : "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings."
Selain menyerahkan kekhawatiran, I also have to be SELF-CONTROLLED and ALERT. Dalam kerapuhanku iblis sedang mengintai untuk memenangkan jiwaku.
I won't let him have fun over me!!! God show me your power and grace, and deliver me from evil! By Jesus' name, this I pray.
