Hai Wonder Kids, kembali dalam renungan anak GKY Mangga Besar. Judul renungan hari ini adalah Pembohong, Gila, atau Tuhan? Diambil dari: Roma 10:9 “Sebab jika kamu mengaku dengan mulutmu, bahwa Yesus adalah Tuhan, dan percaya dalam hatimu, bahwa Allah telah membangkitkan Dia dari antara orang mati, maka kamu akan diselamatkan.”Wonder Kids, ada seorang penulis Kristen bernama C.S. Lewis yang pernah menjelaskan sesuatu yang sangat penting tentang Yesus. Ia berkata kira-kira begini: kalau Yesus berkata bahwa Dia adalah Anak Allah, maka hanya ada beberapa kemungkinan. Bisa saja Yesus berbohong. Bisa saja Yesus gila. Atau, memang Yesus benar-benar adalah Tuhan.Mari kita pikirkan bersama. Apakah Yesus berbohong? Tidak. Orang yang berbohong biasanya ingin mencari keuntungan untuk dirinya sendiri. Tetapi Yesus justru hidup dalam kasih, kebenaran, dan pengorbanan. Ia tidak memakai orang lain untuk kepentingan-Nya sendiri. Ia malah rela menderita dan mati di kayu salib. Itu bukan hidup seorang pembohong.Lalu, apakah Yesus gila? Juga tidak. Yesus berbicara dengan hikmat yang luar biasa. Ia tenang, penuh kasih, tahu apa yang Ia lakukan, dan mengerti hati manusia. Hidup-Nya tidak kacau. Justru hidup Yesus sangat benar, indah, dan penuh kuasa. Itu bukan tanda orang yang kehilangan akal.Kalau begitu, tinggal satu jawaban yang paling masuk akal: Yesus berkata benar. Yesus memang adalah Tuhan. Yesus bukan hanya guru yang baik. Yesus bukan cuma orang hebat. Yesus adalah Anak Allah yang datang ke dunia untuk menyelamatkan manusia berdosa.Wonder Kids, ini penting sekali. Kadang-kadang orang ingin membuat Yesus terasa “aman,” misalnya hanya menyebut-Nya guru yang bijaksana atau orang baik. Tetapi Yesus tidak memberi kita pilihan itu. Kalau kita sungguh mendengar perkataan-Nya, kita harus mengambil keputusan: apakah kita menolak-Nya, atau percaya kepada-Nya sebagai Tuhan?Firman Tuhan dalam Roma 10:9 berkata bahwa kalau kita mengaku Yesus adalah Tuhan dan percaya bahwa Allah membangkitkan Dia dari antara orang mati, kita akan diselamatkan. Jadi, yang Tuhan mau bukan hanya kita kagum kepada Yesus, tetapi sungguh percaya kepada-Nya dengan hati dan mulut kita.Wonder Kids, hari ini lakukan ini: Katakan kepada Tuhan dalam doamu, “Tuhan Yesus, aku percaya Engkau bukan pembohong atau orang gila. Engkaulah Tuhan dan Juruselamatku.”Mari kita berdoa: Tuhan Yesus, terima kasih karena Engkau berkata benar tentang diri-Mu. Terima kasih karena Engkau adalah Tuhan yang datang menyelamatkanku. Tolong aku supaya sungguh percaya kepada-Mu dengan segenap hatiku dan berani mengaku bahwa Engkaulah Tuhanku. Dalam nama Tuhan Yesus aku berdoa, Amin.Wonder Kids, ingatlah: Yesus bukan pembohong atau orang gila, tetapi Tuhan yang sejati dan layak dipercaya. Tuhan Yesus memberkati.
KATA PEMRED #52PinterPolitik.comBayangkan sebuah kios pulsa di pinggir jalan mana pun di republik ini. Etalase kaca yang buram oleh debu. Deretan kartu perdana digantung dengan penjepit jemuran. Seorang perempuan muda berhenti, menyebut nominal, mengeluarkan uang lusuh dari saku. Selama 2 dekade, transaksi itu selesai dalam 1 menit. Mulai awal Juli, ada 1 langkah baru di antara uang dan kartu: perempuan itu harus menghadapkan wajahnya ke kamera. Bukan untuk kenangan. Untuk dicocokkan dengan basis data kependudukan negara.

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Senin, 6 Juli 2026Bacaan: Lalu berkatalah yang seorang kepada yang lain: "Tidak patut yang kita lakukan ini. Hari ini ialah hari kabar baik, tetapi kita ini tinggal diam saja. Apabila kita menanti sampai terang pagi, maka hukuman akan menimpa kita. Jadi sekarang, marilah kita pergi menghadap untuk memberitahukan hal itu ke istana raja." (2 Raja-raja 7:9)Renungan: Di zaman Israel kuno, salah satu penyakit yang paling ditakuti adalah kusta. Mengapa? Karena penyakit ini tak hanya memberikan rasa sakit secara fisik, tapi juga menyerang mental penderitanya. Bagaimana tidak? Orang kusta akan dicap sebagai orang yang kena tulah dan dikutuk Allah. Orang kusta juga diasingkan dan begitu direndahkan. Bacaan kita hari ini sungguh menarik untuk kita renungkan. Orang kusta yang selama ini diremehkan justru menjadi pahlawan Israel. Sementara rakyat Israel mengalami kelaparan hebat, orang-orang kusta inilah yang memberi tahu mereka bahwa tentara Aram sudah meninggalkan perkemahannya dan meninggalkan banyak perbekalan. Padahal bisa saja orang-orang kusta itu "balas dendam" dan membiarkan rakyat Israel kelaparan sementara mereka bisa menikmati makanan secara berlimpah. Bisa kita bayangkan betapa malunya rakyat Israel saat mengetahui bahwa orang-orang kusta inilah yang menolong mereka dengan mengabarkan berita baik itu. Orang-orang yang selama ini mereka rendahkan justru menjadi pahlawan bagi mereka. Apa yang bisa kita pelajari dari kisah ini? Janganlah kita suka meremehkan, merendahkan, melakukan hal yang jahat, atau memusuhi seseorang. Kita tidak pernah tahu bahwa orang yang kita jahati adalah orang yang kelak kita mintai pertolongan! Bayangkan betapa malunya kita jika hal itu sampai terjadi. Lebih malu lagi kalau orang itu bersedia menolong kita! Orang yang kita remehkan, bisa saja kelak menjadi orang terhormat. Orang yang kita anggap bawahan, bisa saja menjadi atasan kita. Orang yang kita sangka buruk, bisa saja ternyata adalah orang baik yang tidak pernah memamerkan kebaikannya. Orang yang kita jahati, bisa saja orang itu membalasnya dengan berbuat baik kepada kita. Karena itu marilah kita tidak jemu-jemu berbuat baik kepada setiap orang. Singkirkan prasangka-prasangka dan penilaian lahiriah yang nyatanya sering terbukti salah itu. Kita tidak pernah tahu bahwa kita sedang menabur kebaikan yang suatu kali kelak akan kita tuai pada waktu yang tepat. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, berilah aku hati seperti hati-Mu. Hati yang bisa menerima setiap orang apa adanya dan tidak menganggap rendah mereka. Amin. (Dod).

Kementerian Keuangan akan memberlakukan sanksi denda berlapis bagi importir yang menimbun barang di Pelabuhan Tanjung Priok. Langkah ini diambil untuk menekan kepadatan arus logistik dan menurunkan waktu tunggu (dwelling time) pelabuhan yang selama ini tinggi akibat penumpukan kontainer.Menteri Keuangan Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa melakukan sidak di pelabuhan dan menemukan lebih dari 3.000 unit kontainer menumpuk karena tarif denda pelabuhan yang jauh lebih murah dibandingkan sewa gudang. Formula denda baru akan diterapkan secara adil dan transparan, namun tegas menindak importir nakal agar segera mengosongkan lapangan penumpukan.

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Kamis, 14 Mei 2026Bacaan: Ketika Yesus melihat iman mereka, berkatalah la kepada orang lumpuh itu, "Hai anak-Ku, dosa-dosamu sudah diampuni!" (Markus 2:5)Renungan: Seorang pria sedang marah kepada Tuhan. Pagi ini muncul dua anak ayam di depan rumahnya. Padahal malam sebelumnya ia berdoa meminta telur ayam. "Bisa-bisanya Tuhan salah memberi!" katanya geram. "Tuhan tidak salah, Pak," sahut istrinya, "Anak ayam yang Tuhan berikan ini justru supaya nanti kau dapat sering makan telur ayam." Empat orang menggotong seorang lumpuh menuju rumah tempat Yesus berada. Mereka berharap Yesus memberikannya kesembuhan. Karena banyak orang berkerumun di rumah itu mereka tidak dapat masuk untuk menemui Yesus. Maka mereka membuka atap rumah, menurunkan si lumpuh bersama tikarnya di depan Yesus. Kata Yesus kepada si lumpuh, "Hai anak-Ku, dosa-dosamu sudah diampuni!" (ay. 5). Tampaknya seolah Yesus salah memberi. Ia memberi pengampunan dosa bukan kesembuhan. Namun, bila kita perhatikan situasinya lebih saksama, kita tahu kalau pemberian Yesus tidak salah. Selama ini si lumpuh hidup dalam pemikiran bahwa keadaannya yang merana disebabkan oleh besar dosanya. Ia perlu mendengar dirinya diampuni, tidak dihukum oleh Allah. Pengampunan membuka pintu bagi kesembuhan. Si lumpuh menyadari Allah berkenan kepadanya. Saat itulah Yesus memberikan kesembuhan. Kata Yesus, "Bangunlah, angkatlah tikarmu dan pulanglah ke rumahmu!" (ay. 11). Tuhan tidak pernah salah memberikan sesuatu kepada kita. Maka mulai hari ini jangan kita menjadi tawar hati bila pemberian Tuhan datang tidak seperti yang kita harapkan. Sadarilah bahwa pemberian Tuhan tersebut merupakan berkat awal sebelum berkat yang sebenarnya akan kita terima. Contoh sebelum datang kesuksesan, Tuhan memberi kita pengalaman kerendahan hati. Sebelum datang kelimpahan, Tuhan mengajar bagaimana supaya hati tidak terpaut kepada harta duniawi. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, kini aku mengerti bahwa terkadang apa yang aku harapkan tidak seperti yang Kau berikan, karena ternyata dibalik itu semua Engkau sudah mempersiapkan yang terbaik bagiku. Oleh karena itu ajarilah aku untuk tidak cepat kecewa bila yang kuterima tidak seperti harapanku. Amin. (Dod).

Erik Futtrup has been to every country in the world Hey now, I am your host, Ric Gazarian. In this episode, I had the pleasure of meeting Erik at ETF II in Bangkok, and I am looking forward to seeing him this October for ETF III. Erik is looking forward to joining the stage at ETF for the UN Master photo as he just accomplished his quest just last year. Erik was early to the internet, real early, in the late 1980s. Erk was connecting with travelers in the early 90s. Think EPS but from 25 years ago. Erik shares his journey to 193, balancing work, family and travel. I would like to thank everyone for their support of Counting Countries, especially my Patrons. You know them, you love them!

If you're building software in the AI era, speed is everywhere—and that's exactly why discipline matters more than ever. In Part 2 of our interview with Angelo Zanetti, one strategy keeps coming up as the smartest path for founders and product teams: go web first. You validate demand faster, avoid app-store friction, and you get a clearer signal before you spend real money on the mobile "tax." About Angelo Zanetti Angelo Zanetti is the co-founder and CEO of Elemental, a South African-based software development agency helping startups and scaleups worldwide bring digital products to life. Since 2005, his team has specialized in building scalable, high-performance web apps and software platforms that solve complex business problems. With deep technical knowledge and strategic thinking, Angelo has helped founders launch bespoke software products that are lean, user-focused, and future-ready. He's served on boards including BISA and Entrepreneurs' Organisation Cape Town, and he's a proud member of the global founder community OPUS. Go web first in the AI era AI is changing how teams build, but it doesn't change what makes a product succeed. Angelo's take is balanced: AI can absolutely make developers faster—but it can also make mistakes bigger if you don't have the experience to catch what's wrong. He shares a story that captures the risk perfectly: a developer using Cursor accidentally had the database dropped and recreated. The tool didn't intend harm—it simply took a destructive shortcut with confidence. Go web first and use AI like an amplifier. In the hands of an experienced developer, AI accelerates delivery. In the hands of someone guessing, it accelerates failure. Go web first when you're still validating demand If the goal is traction, the fastest route is often not a mobile app. Angelo points out that mobile adds overhead: submissions take time, changes can slow down release cycles, and testing requires compiles plus device/emulator workflows that can drag early iterations. When you go web first, you can ship faster, adjust faster, and learn faster. That matters when you're still figuring out what users actually value. Avoid app-store friction App stores introduce delays and rules. Even when you do everything right, you're waiting on review cycles and dealing with policies that can change. By starting on the web, you keep your feedback loop tight and your roadmap in your control. Shorten the feedback loop This is the hidden advantage: going web first makes iteration feel like steering instead of guessing. You can test onboarding, pricing pages, feature positioning, and workflows in days—not weeks—then respond to what real users do, not what you hope they do. Go web first, but use AI safely AI doesn't remove the need for senior judgment. Angelo's point is that experienced developers still matter because the hard part is translation—turning vision into structure, edge cases, and maintainable architecture. AI can accelerate progress—go web first with guardrails Go web first and set guardrails early: backups, version control, review practices, and clear boundaries for what AI can touch. Tools can generate code quickly, but your team still owns security, data safety, and reliability. Mistakes are cheaper to fix When you're validating, mistakes are inevitable. The goal is to make them inexpensive. A web-first approach keeps the cost of change lower, so you don't "lock in" bad assumptions behind a costly mobile release cycle. Go web first by planning like an architect Angelo uses a metaphor that founders immediately get: building software is like building a house—you don't start by putting up walls. You start with an architect. Planning is a real deliverable: scope, user journeys, exceptions, and specifications. It's often undervalued because it's not as tangible as code, but Angelo calls it key to success—especially if you want to scale later without rebuilding from scratch. Start with a clear scope and user journeys Go web first with a simple, documented path: who the user is, what outcome they want, and what steps they take. When the journey is clear, the MVP stays focused—and your team can defend scope when feature requests start creeping in. Define a foundation you can scale You don't need to over-engineer. But you do need a foundation that won't collapse if adoption spikes. A web-first product can still be built with smart architecture that supports growth—without pretending you already have millions of users. Go web first, then go mobile when users pull you there Angelo shares a practical signal for mobile timing: when people keep asking for it—repeatedly—through engagement, social channels, and real usage patterns, the decision becomes obvious. That's when "it makes sense," not when it's a personal preference. When mobile adds real value If the web product is solving the problem and users are happy, mobile isn't automatically better. Go web first until mobile improves retention, engagement, or access in a way the web can't. When hardware features make going mobile necessary Mobile becomes the right answer when you truly need what mobile devices offer—hardware-level capabilities that a web app can't reliably provide. Closing: Go web first, then expand with confidence Part 2 is a reminder that modern tools don't replace fundamentals—they raise the stakes. Use AI to accelerate, but respect planning and safety. And when you're still proving demand, go web first. You'll learn faster, waste less, and you'll earn your way into mobile when the market makes the call.
