TODAY, June 03: The Flowers Are Springing Up

The Flowers Are Springing Up

Today, while reading the Song of Songs book in the Bible, I was mesmerized.
It's so beautifully described inside of it...
The winter is past, and the rains are over and gone.
In one season of our life, we might experience the winter with rain and storm in it.
But, if we keep holding on to the Lord, eventually we'll enjoy the springing-up flowers again.
Be patient. Keep walking in this life with God.
Keep on believing that after the storm, there'll be flowers of life that He'll send for us.

Look, the winter is past,
    and the rains are over and gone.
12 The flowers are springing up,
    the season of singing birds has come,
    and the cooing of turtledoves fills the air.
--- Song of Songs 2:11-12

Bunga-Bunga Bermekaran

Hari ini, ketika membuka Alkitab pada bagian Kidung Agung, saya sempat terpesona.
Begitu indahnya digambarkan dalam Kitab tersebut...
Musim dingin telah lewat, hujan telah berhenti dan sudah lalu.
Dalam satu musim kehidupan kita, kita pasti pernah merasakan musim dingin dan hujan badai di dalamnya.
Namun, ketika kita terus berpegang kepada Tuhan, maka kita pun nantinya akan menikmati bunga-bunga yang kembali bermekaran.
Sabar. Terus berjalan bersama-Nya.
Percaya setelah badai berlalu, masih ada bunga-bunga kehidupan yang akan Dia kirimkan bagi kita.

Karena lihatlah, musim dingin telah lewat, hujan telah berhenti dan sudah lalu. Di ladang telah nampak bunga-bunga, tibalah musim memangkas; bunyi tekukur terdengar di tanah kita
--- Kidung Agung 2:11-12
