Learn from Noah

just got this message from someone, and its really good to share to all of you.

what can we learn from the story of Noah? (Kejadian 6-9)





One: Don't miss the boat

Two: Remember that we are all in the same boat.

Three: Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the Ark.

Four: Stay fit. When you're 600 years old, someone may ask you to do something really big.

Five: Don't listen to critics; just get on with the job that needs to be done.

Six: Build your future on high ground.

Seven: For safety's sake, travel in pairs

Eight: Speed isn't always an advantage. The snails were on board with the cheetahs.

Nine: When you're stressed, float a while.

Ten: Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs; the Titanic by professionals.

Eleven : No matter the storm, when you are with God, there's always a rainbow waiting.
Twelve : Noah was the riches man in Biblical times, why ? Because when the rest of the world was liquidated he was still afloat.

yg saya bisa interpretasikan dari setiap point untuk diri saya sendiri kira2 seperti ini:

1. Dont miss the boat
(bersiap siagalah, jangan sampai tertinggal, kalau greja di mana kita udah ditempatkan mengalami kegerakan rohani, dengan berbagai rencana dan aktifitass, ikutsertalah (ikut berperan) dalam setiap kegerakan yg terjadi, sehingga kita tidak tertinggal.

2. Remember that we are all in the same boat
(sebagai sesama anak2 Tuhan, kita harus sadar bahwa kita berada dalam satu tempat dengan satu visi dan misi, oleh karna itu saling bantu mebantulah, dan saling encourage each other spy tujuan bisa tercapai dengan baik, hindari/jauhi gesekan2 yg bs mengakibatkan kita tertinggal arus)

3. Plan a head it wasnt raining when Noah build the ark
dalam kehidupan berkeluarga, bergereja, bermasyarakat, rencana itu sangat dibutuhkan untuk spy kita bisa memanage waktu/kesempatan dengan baik.

4. Stay fit, when you're 600 years old, someone may ask you to do sumthing really big
(Tuhan bisa memakai kita kapanpun Dia mau, ga peduli umur kita masih kecil, muda ataupun tua sekali, kalo Dia mau make kita, dan terjadilah, so be ready)

5. Dont listen to critics, just get on with the job that need to be done
(fokus fokus fokus, ngerjain sesuatu hal harus belajar fokus)

6. Build your future on High ground

7. for safety's sake, travel in pairs
(ini saya diingetkan tng firman Tuhan yg berkata: two are better than one, if one falls down, the other can cought him/her up, dan juga dimana DUA atau 3 org berkumpul dalam namaKU, Aku hadir)

8. speed isnt always an advantage, the snail were on board with cheetahs

9. When you stressed, float a while
(setiap org tidak pernah luput dari masalah, kalo lagi stress, just hang in there, God is in control)

10. Remember, the Ark was built by amateurs, the titanic by professionals
(kita dipilih bukan berdasarkan kemampuan kita, atau kepinteran kita, kita dipilih karna Dia yg memilih kita. Dia ga lihat kemampuan kita tapi liat Kemauan kita, firman Tuhan berkata "Bukan kmu yg memilih Aku, tetapi Aku yg memilih kamu")

11. No matter the storm, when you are with God, there's always a rainbow waiting
(Jeremiah 29:12: "Sebab Aku ini mengetahui rancangan2 apa yg ada padaKu mengenai
kamu, demikianlah firman Tuhan, yaitu rancangan damai sejahtera dan bukan rancangan kecelakaan, untuk memberikan kepadamu hari depan yang penuh harapan")

12. Noah was the riches man in the bible, why? because when the rest of the world was liquidated, he was still afloat
(kekayaan bukan dilihat dari kekayaan materi aja (kekayaan duniawi) karna itu hanya bersifat sementara, semuanya akan lenyap pada waktunya, tetapi org2 yg Takut akan Tuhan beroleh hidup yang kekal (kekayaan yg tak terhitung)

itu yg saya dapet pelajari ketika saya membaca artikel ini. buat saya ada beberapa point yg emang susah buat dilakuin... but "we can do ALL THINGS trough Christ who strengthen us" rite?

amin. God bless you all
