Firman Tuhan : Mazmur 106:13
"Tetapi segera mereka melupakan perbuatanperbuatan-Nya, dan tidak menantikan nasihat-Nya."
Sungguh tidak mengenakkan ketika jasa atau perbuatan baik kita dilupakan oleh seseorang. Dahulu ketika keadaan masih sulit, kita diharapkan menjadi penolong, tetapi ketika keadaan menjadi baik, nasihat kita diabaikan. Ketika mengalami hal seperti itu, saya sempat berpikir, "Tahu begitu dahulu saya tidak mau menolongnya kalau akhirnya dilupakan juga."
Allah juga pernah dilupakan oleh umat pilihan-Nya. Pemazmur dengan gamblang mencatat betapa mudahnya Israel melupakan Allah mereka. Kondisi yang miris karena Allah sudah menunjukkan kemurahan hati dan kuasa-Nya kepada bangsa Israel. Padahal, jika bukan karena campur tangan Allah, mustahil bangsa Israel dapat mengalami kondisi yang baik setelah menderita akibat perbudakan di Mesir. Perbuatan-perbuatan Allah yang begitu dahsyat--dicatat oleh Musa dalam (Keluaran 14:1-15:21) -- seolah lenyap tak berbekas dalam ingatan bangsa Israel. Padahal, secara logika, menyaksikan kuasa Allah yang begitu ajaib dan dahsyat seperti itu tentunya merupakan suatu pengalaman tak terlupakan. Entah apa yang ada dalam benak umat pilihan Allah tersebut!
Ketika Allah dilupakan, apalagi dengan sengaja, sebenarnya kehidupan umat Allah ada dalam bahaya besar. Bukankah semua yang terjadi dalam hidup kita adalah karena kemurahan dan kebaikan-Nya? Masakan kita tega melupakan Allah, yang sudah begitu baik dalam hidup kita? Mari kita memperbaharui komitmen di hadapannya. Orang lain boleh melupakan Allah, tetapi jangan sampai kita melupakan Dia.

** Scripture: Psalm 106: 1**
"They soon forgat his works, they waited not for his counsel."
It's uncomfortable when the service or good deeds we forgotten by someone. In the past when the state is still difficult, we expected to be a helper, but when things are good, our advice is ignored. When experienced anything like that, I was thinking, "You know, so first I did not want to help him if ultimately forgettable as well."
God also never be forgotten by his chosen people. Psalmist clearly noted how easy they forget God of Israel. Conditions sad because God has shown mercy and His power to the nation of Israel. In fact, if it were not for the intervention of God, it is impossible Israel can experience good condition after suffering from slavery in Egypt. Acts of God is so powerful - recorded by Moses in (Exodus 14: 1-15: 21) - seemed to vanish without trace in the memory of the nation of Israel. In fact, logically, to see the power of God that is so magical and powerful as it is certainly an unforgettable experience. I wonder what is in the minds of God's chosen people!
When God is forgotten, especially by accident, actually lives of God's people are in great danger. Is not all that happens in our lives is because of His mercy and goodness? Cuisine we bear to forget God, that is so good in our lives? Let us renew the commitment in front of him. Other people may forget God, but let us not forget him.
