TODAY, April 28 - You Have Collected My Tears in Your Bottle

He Has Collected Our Tears in Our Bottle

God knows all of our feelings and sadness.
When we're in sorrow, maybe we're doubtful that God will listen to our hearts.
But, if He has collected our tears in His bottle, don't you think that He knows about everything?
He really cares for us and He understands our feelings.
The thing that we need to change is our own perspective.
And surrender everything to the Lord.

You keep track of all my sorrows.
    You have collected all my tears in your bottle.
    You have recorded each one in your book.
--- Psalm 56:8

Air Mata Kita dikumpulkan dalam Kirbat-Nya

Kata kirbat searti dengan pundi-pundi kulit (tempat air, susu, anggur, dsb.).
Tuhan tahu segala perasaan dan kesedihan kita.
Saat kita berduka, mungkin kita meragukan bahwa Tuhan akan mendengarkan seruan hati kita.
Namun, jika air mata kita pun ditaruh dalam kirbat-Nya, bukankah semuanya telah diketahuinya?
Dia amat peduli pada kita, Dia mengerti perasaan kita.
Yang juga harus kita ubah adalah cara pandang diri kita.
Dan menyerahkan segalanya hanya kepada-Nya.

Sengsaraku Engkaulah yang menghitung-hitung, air mataku Kautaruh ke dalam kirbat-Mu. Bukankah semuanya telah Kaudaftarkan?
---Mazmur 56:8
