Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Sabtu, 31 Mei 2025Bacaan: "Hai anakku, janganlah pertimbangan dan kebijaksanaan itu menjauh dari matamu, peliharalah itu." (Amsal 3:21) Renungan: Seseorang berkata bahwa Ishak tidaklah terlalu miskin untuk dapat menyediakan makanan bagi keluarganya, atau Ribka adalah seorang ibu rumah tangga yang tidak bisa mengatur kebutuhan makanan untuk seisi rumahnya, sehingga Esau harus menjual hak kesulungannya demi mendapatkan bubur kacang merah. Sebenarnya tindakan bodoh Esau lebih disebabkan karena nafsu yang tidak bisa ditahan dan tidak adanya pertimbangan panjang. Yang ada dalam pikirannya hanyalah memuaskan nafsu makannya saat itu, dan kalau tidak ia akan mati. Untuk saat itu, tidak ada yang dapat menyenangkan serta memuaskan hatinya selain sepiring bubur kacang merah. la menganggap bahwa bubur kacang merah yang sangat menggoda itu lebih penting daripada sebuah hak kesulungan. "Sebentar lagi aku akan mati: apa gunanya bagiku hak kesulungan itu?" Hak kesulungan merupakan gambaran dari hak-hak rohani bagi orang percaya. Salah di dalam menilai seberapa penting hak-hak rohani tersebut, maka kita akan bertindak seperti Esau yang terjebak dengan keinginan sesaat dan karena tidak berpikir panjang, maka ia menganggap tidak berharga hak kesulungan itu. Amsal 3:21 berbunyi, "Hai anakku, janganlah pertimbangan dan kebijaksanaan itu menjauh dari matamu, peliharalah itu." Keputusan Esau menjual hak kesulungannya, salah satunya disebabkan karena tidak adanya pertimbangan atau tidak berpikir panjang. Tentunya Esau juga tahu apa itu hak kesulungan dan berkat-berkat apa saja yang akan diperolehnya melalui hak kesulungan tersebut. Buktinya, setelah ia tahu bahwa ayahnya telah memberkati Yakub, meraung-raunglah ia dengan keras sambil memohon agar Ishak memberkatinya juga (Kej 27:34). Namun apa boleh buat, semua sudah terlambat. Ketika Esau diperhadapkan pada keinginan yang besar untuk makan bubur kacang merah, ia sama sekali tidak berpikir panjang tentang pentingnya hak kesulungan. la terlalu terpikat dengan apa yang ada di depan matanya saat itu. Melalui kisah kehidupan Esau kita belajar tentang satu perkara penting, yaitu membiasakan diri berpikir panjang sebelum mengambil keputusan. Seringkali kita begitu terpaku pada keadaan yang ada di depan mata, sehingga kita lupa untuk berpikir panjang dan menimbang-nimbang mengenai akibat dari keputusan yang kita ambil. Ada sebuah kata bijak yang berkata, "Mujurlah orang yang tidak tergesa-gesa memutuskan, karena pertimbangan akan mencegah air mata penyesalannya." Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, tidak jarang aku bertindak terlalu cepat dalam banyak hal, tanpa berpikir panjang. Tetapi aku bersyukur bahwa Engkau kembali mengingatkanku betapa pentingnya pertimbangan itu bagiku. Amin. (Dod).

READING THE BIBLE WITH THE DEAD/RBWD - Eps #02: Kierkegaard: Knight of faith Pdt. Jimmy Pardede, Denni Girsang, dan Samuel C. Pantou Mungkin hampir tidak ada orang kristen yang tidak pernah mendengar kisah ketaatan Abraham ketika ia diperintahkan oleh Allah untuk mempersembahkan Ishak sebagai korban bagi Allah. Tetapi apakah kita pernah mencoba menyelami dilema dan pergumulan iman Abraham, his fear and trembling, ketika ia menerima dan menjalankan perintah tersebut? Mengapa Allah yang menjanjikan keturunan Abraham akan menjadi bangsa yang besar, dengan Ishak adalah pewaris janji tersebut, ternyata sekarang justru meminta agar Ishak dikorbankan? Adakah Allah mungkin berkontradiksi pada Diri-Nya Sendiri? Bagaimanakah perjalanan iman "Bapa seluruh orang beriman" ini melalui seluruh ujian yang menjadikannya "knight of faith"? Apakah iman menuntut suatu komitmen? Saksikan lengkapnya di: https://grii.to/rbwd-2
"My biggest personal challenge is that I want to do more than I'm capable of ever doing, being just me. I'm open to so many things." - DinesIn this episode, Dahlia Ishak shares her unconventional creative journey from accidentally discovering graphic design during university to running a food and beverage branding studio. Born to Egyptian parents in Northern Ontario, Dahlia initially pursued sciences before stumbling upon design. Her career took her from advertising in Australia to entrepreneurship when she created a pioneering coworking cafe in Brisbane. After building a vibrant community, circumstances forced her return to Canada where she rebuilt her life through new cafes before pivoting to a branding studio following pandemic challenges. Throughout her journey, Dahlia has balanced design work, hospitality businesses, and teaching at Shillington College, consistently finding ways to connect creativity with community.Key TakeawaysDahlia discovered design accidentally despite always being creative – she hadn't made the connection between her passion for collecting designed objects and actual career possibilities.Using her design skills, she created a brochure that established the first student exchange program between her Canadian design school and an Australian university.After experiencing burnout in advertising, Dahlia found new creative fulfillment in Australia's coffee culture, leading her to open a coworking cafe.Rather than abandoning creativity completely when running hospitality businesses, she maintained connections by hosting creative events and building relationships with local designers.When forced to relocate to Canada, Dahlia used her hospitality business to meet people and build a new network in an unfamiliar city.During the pandemic, she pivoted to helping hospitality businesses survive by offering design services, which eventually evolved into her current branding studio.Throughout all her ventures, Dahlia has consistently taught design at night, finding it energizing rather than draining.Her story demonstrates the value of transferable skills across industries – her hospitality experience directly informs her current focus on food and beverage branding.Dahlia's journey shows how creativity can manifest in different ways beyond traditional design roles – as a facilitator, connector, and community builder.Her biggest challenge remains wanting to do more than is possible, highlighting the entrepreneurial drive that has fueled her many successful pivots.

Penting bagi Abraham agar Ishak tidak menikah "dari antara perempuan Kanaan". Ini masalah rohani, bukan etnis; hal teologis, bukan nasional. Kemerosotan moral keagamaan orang Kanaan, menyembah dewa palsu, Ishak mudah jatuh jika menikah dari antara mereka.

Pertanyaan Ishak, terjawab ketika Yesus menampakkan diri dalam daging dan darah, melayani di antara umat-Nya, dan akhirnya mengorbankan hidup-Nya di kayu salib. Jelaslah bahwa Yesus, Anak Domba Allah, adalah Pengganti kita.

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Senin, 4 November 2024 Bacaan: "Maka takutlah ia, lalu bangkit dan pergi menyelamatkan nyawanya; dan setelah sampai ke Bersyeba, yang termasuk wilayah Yehuda, ia meninggalkan bujangnya di sana. Tetapi ia sendiri masuk ke padang gurun sehari perjalanan jauhnya, lalu duduk di bawah sebuah pohon arar. Kemudian ia ingin mati, katanya: "Cukuplah itu! Sekarang, ya TUHAN, ambillah nyawaku, sebab aku ini tidak lebih baik dari pada nenek moyangku." (1 Raja-raja 19:3-4) Renungan: Di gunung Karmel, Elia menantang Raja Ahab beserta 400 orang Nabi Baal untuk membuktikan kehebatan Tuhan. Elia memanjatkan doa yang super beriman, "Ya TUHAN, Allah Abraham, Ishak dan Israel, pada hari ini biarlah diketahui orang, bahwa Engkaulah Allah... dan bahwa aku ini hambaMu... Jawablah aku, ya TUHAN, supaya bangsa ini mengetahui, bahwa Engkaulah Allah." Lalu, turunlah api menyambar habis korban bakaran Elia dan ia membunuh ke 400 Nabi Baal tersebut. Namun keesokan harinya, ia lari ketakutan ketika mendengar ancaman Izebel, dan berkata, "Cukuplah itu! Sekarang, ya TUHAN, ambillah nyawaku." Elia berdiri teguh di puncak gunung Karmel mendeklarasikan fokus dan kekuatan imannya kepada Tuhan dan meyakini 100% akan jawaban doanya. Namun imannya jatuh seketika di titik nol hanya karena ancaman seorang perempuan. la menjadi putus asa dan ingin mati rasanya. Demikian pula Abraham, ia melakukan hal yang sama ketika ia berbohong tentang Sara di hadapan Firaun karena berusaha menyelamatkan nyawanya. Daud yang menuliskan pujian yang indah tentang kesetiaan Tuhan yang besar dalam hidupnya, namun juga yang menyerukan, "Allahku, mengapa Engkau meninggalkan Aku?" (Mzm 22:2). Musa yang menjadi pemimpin besar yang membawa bangsa Israel keluar dari Mesir dengan perbuatan tangan Tuhan yang besar, namun ia pun berseru-seru kepada Tuhan ketika berada di Masa dan Meriba, "Apakah yang akan kulakukan kepada bangsa ini? Sebentar lagi mereka akan melempari aku dengan batu?" Nabi Elia, Raja Daud, dan Musa adalah pahlawan-pahlawan iman yang dipakai oleh Tuhan untuk mendemonstrasikan kuasa-Nya, akan tetapi hal ini tidaklah menjadikan mereka manusia super rohani tanpa kegagalan. Dengan demikian, kita tidak perlu berkecil hati ketika perjalanan iman kita bagai grafik yang menurun secara drastis. Saat-saat kegelisahan, kekhawatiran, dan ketakutan tidak mampu kita halau, apakah yang harus kita lakukan selanjutnya? Nyatakan kepada Tuhan segala kelemahan iman kita dan tetaplah berdiri di gunung Tuhan. Dengan kata lain, iman kita boleh limbung namun tidaklah mati. Demikianlah Tuhan berkata setelah Elia menyampaikan ketakutannya, "Bangunlah, makanlah! Sebab kalau tidak, perjalananmu nanti terlalu jauh bagimu." Kita tidak berdiam diri ketika kondisi iman kita tercekik, namun kita harus bangkit dan meraih kekuatan Tuhan untuk menjalani hari-hari yang penuh tantangan dan menyadari la selalu setia di dalam kehidupan kita. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. DOA: Tuhan Yesus, aku mohon kekuatan untuk bisa bangkit ketika imanku runtuh, sehingga aku sanggup menapaki jalan kehidupanku sampai akhir. Amin. (Dod).
Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Jumat, 25 Oktober 2024 Bacaan: Tetapi malaikat itu berkata kepadanya: "Jangan takut, hai Zakharia, sebab doamu telah dikabulkan dan Elisabet, isterimu, akan melahirkan seorang anak laki-laki bagimu dan haruslah engkau menamai dia Yohanes." (Lukas 1:13) Renungan: Ada seorang ibu, ketika anaknya meninggalkan kampung halamannya untuk masuk universitas, dia membekalinya dengan sebuah Alkitab yang ditulisi nama anaknya dan sebuah kutipan ayat Alkitab. Kehidupan anaknya selama kuliah di kota ternyata merupakan permulaan gaya hidup yang mendukakan hati sang ibu yang saleh itu. Suatu ketika karena kesulitan uang anak itu menjual Alkitab kenangan khusus dari ibunya demi membeli sebotol minuman keras. Meskipun demikian, sang ibu tidak pernah berhenti mendoakan anaknya. Bahkan sampai akhir hayatnya, dia terus mendoakan anaknya. Setelah kepergian ibunya, ia berhasil menjadi seorang dokter di sebuah rumah sakit. Suatu hari seorang pasien yang sekarat minta diambilkan buku kesayangannya. Setelah pasien itu meninggal, dokter tersebut ingin tahu buku apakah yang sangat berharga bagi pasien itu, sehingga ia masih mengingatnya saat mau meninggal. Dia lalu mencarinya. Dan dia terkejut ketika menemukan Alkitab yang pernah dijualnya beberapa tahun silam. Lalu dia pergi ke ruang kantornya dan meneliti Alkitab yang dulu dijualnya itu. Dia memeriksa kembali tulisan di bagian dalamnya yang sangat dikenalnya. Ia memperhatikan halaman yang ayat- ayatnya diberi garis bawah, yang diharapkan ibunya agar dia ingat. Sekian lama di dalam kantornya, akhirnya ia berlutut dan berdoa kepada Allah atas pengasihanNya. Dokter ini kemudian menjadi pelayan Tuhan. Buku mulia yang pernah dijualnya itu kini menjadi harta miliknya yang paling berharga. Ternyata, meskipun ibunya telah meninggal tapi kuasa doa terus berjalan. Benarlah apa yang dikatakan seseorang, "Saya sendiri sangat yakin doa seorang ibu yang baik tidak pernah mati." Firman yang diberikan oleh malaikat kepada Zakharia adalah tentang kelahiran Yohanes Pembaptis sebagai jawaban doa mereka. Kata 'doamu' (ay 13) tidak menunjuk pada doa Zakharia pada saat itu, tetapi pada doa-doanya yang lalu pada saat ia meminta anak. Ini menunjukkan bahwa doa yang lama sekali belum dijawab bukannya tidak didengar atau ditolak oleh Allah. Ini mengajar kita untuk tetap tekun berdoa sebelum doa kita dijawab. Ketika Allah seolah tidak menjawab doa kita, bukan berarti Allah diam dan tidak bekerja, tetapi Dia memberi kita waktu untuk mempersiapkan diri guna menerima jawaban dari-Nya. Sebelum Allah menjawab masalah kita, Dia akan bekerja terlebih dahulu dalam diri kita. Hal ini sama seperti Allah mempersiapkan Nuh membangun bahtera selama hampir 100 tahun sebelum hujan turun; Abraham menunggu selama 25 tahun sejak Allah menjanjikan seorang anak sebelum Ishak lahir, Musa menggembalakan domba di padang gurun selama 40 tahun sebelum Allah berbicara kepadanya dalam semak duri yang menyala! Daftar ini dapat terus diperpanjang dan mungkin sampai kepada Anda dan saya! Pada hari ini Kencan Dengan Tuhan genap 14 tahun, mengisi sedikit kehidupan rohani kita. Tuhan mempersiapkan saya selama 19 tahun, sejak mulai kuliah di FKIP Kateketik Atmajaya tahun 1991 sampai menjadi guru di SD Regina Pacis Jakarta tahun 1996, untuk kemudian di tahun 2010 mulai berani mewartakan firman Tuhan melalui renungan Kencan Dengan Tuhan. Terima kasih untuk setiap doa dan perhatian kepada saya dan kesetiaan dalam membaca dan mendengarkan renungan Kencan Dengan Tuhan. Semoga selalu menjadi berkat bagi kehidupan kita. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa: Tuhan Yesus, terima kasih untuk setiap penyertaan-Mu dalam hidupku. Teristimewa melalui penyertaan-Mu, Engkau sedang mempersiapkan aku untuk melakukan hal-hal yang besar di kemudian hari. Mampukanlah aku untuk mewujudkan setiap rencana dan kehendak-Mu yang telah dan akan terjadi dalam hidupku. Amin. (Dod).

Kencan Dengan Tuhan Jumat, 31 Mei 2024 Bacaan: Kejadian 27:41 Esau menaruh dendam kepada Yakub karena berkat yang telah diberikan oleh ayahnya kepadanya, lalu ia berkata kepada dirinya sendiri: "Hari-hari berkabung karena kematian ayahku itu tidak akan lama lagi; pada waktu itulah Yakub, adikku, akan kubunuh." Renungan: Di dalam Alkitab kita bisa membaca sebuah kisah menarik tentang dua orang bersaudara, yaitu Yakub dan Esau. Kisah Yakub dan Esau ini sebenarnya menunjukkan keadaan keluarga Ishak yang tidak begitu harmonis. Pangkal persoalannya karena baik Ishak maupun Ribka bertindak pilih kasih. Ishak lebih mengasihi Esau dan Ribka lebih mengasihi Yakub. Masalahnya menjadi lebih parah karena Ribka membuat kesalahan yang besar, yaitu membantu Yakub untuk mengambil berkat kesulungan Esau. Namun, sekaligus di sini juga menunjukkan kesalahan Yakub, sebab Yakub mengikuti petunjuk Ribka yang salah. Kita bisa melihat dampak negatif dalam kehidupan keluarga itu karena tindakan ceroboh tersebut. Dampak bagi Esau. Esau menjadi dendam kepada Yakub dan mempunyai rencana untuk membunuh Yakub. Dendam artinya memendam kebencian kepada seseorang. Begitu sakit hatinya Esau sehingga dengan adiknya sendiri dia bisa sangat benci, bahkan lebih dari itu, yaitu ada rencana untuk membunuh adiknya. Dampak bagi Yakub. Yakub harus hidup dalam pelarian. Kata "lari" menunjukkan tindakan yang harus segera dilakukan, tidak boleh ditunda-tunda lagi. Memang tempat tujuan sudah jelas, yaitu Haran, tetapi bukan berarti tempat yang nyaman bagi Yakub, sebab pada kenyataannya Yakub harus menerima perlakuan yang tidak menyenangkan dari Laban. Kita bisa melihat pelajaran penting dalam kisah Yakub dan Esau ini, yaitu: Pertama, kita harus senantiasa bertindak dengan hati-hati. Jangan ceroboh dan asal menerima saja saran orang lain. Sekalipun ada saran dari orang-orang yang dekat dengan kita, bahkan mungkin dari keluarga kita, namun jika saran tersebut untuk melakukan sesuatu yang tidak benar, kita harus menolaknya. Ingat, kita tidak boleh kompromi dengan ketidakbenaran. Sebab, hal itu pasti akan berakibat buruk bagi kita dan bagi orang lain yang bersangkut-paut dengan tindakan kita. Kedua, kita tidak boleh dendam. Betapapun sakitnya hati kita atas perlakuan orang lain, kita tetap tidak boleh dendam. Sebab, tanpa kita sadari, dendam akan merugikan diri kita sendiri. Dendam akan menghilangkan kebahagiaan kita, dendam juga akan mengganggu kehidupan kita karena kita menjadi tidak tenang, sementara orang yang membuat kita dendam itu tenang-tenang saja. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa: Tuhan Yesus, mampukanlah aku menjaga perbuatanku agar tidak menimbulkan penderitaan bagi orang lain dan jauhkanlah aku dari rasa dendam atas perbuatan orang lain. Amin. (Dod).
Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Senin, 27 Mei 2024 Bacaan: Karena Ia tahu jalan hidupku; seandainya Ia menguji aku, aku akan timbul seperti emas." (Ayub 23:10) Renungan: Abraham menjalani ujian iman terberat ketika ia diminta untuk mempersembahkan Ishak anak tunggalnya. Demikian pula dengan Ayub, yang dalam kesalehannya Tuhan justru mengizinkan Iblis untuk mengambil harta, anak-anak, dan kesehatannya. Namun dalam ketidakmengertiannya, ia mendeklarasikan imannya, "Seandainya la menguji aku, aku akan timbul seperti emas." Sementara itu, bangsa Israel justru mengalami kegagalan demi kegagalan ketika iman mereka diperhadapkan pada situasi yang sulit di padang gurun. Dengan bersungut-sungut mereka berkata, "Mengapakah TUHAN membawa kami ke negeri ini, supaya kami tewas oleh pedang, dan isteri serta anak-anak kami menjadi tawanan? Bukankah lebih baik kami pulang ke Mesir?" Kebebalan bangsa Israel membuat mereka melihat situasi sulit yang dihadapi sebagai bencana di dalam hidup mereka. Sebaliknya, ketajaman mata rohani Abraham dan Ayub telah membuat mereka melihat situasi yang sulit sebagai sebuah kesempatan emas untuk melihat kehebatan karya Tuhan. Kebebalan rohani hanya akan menghadirkan kepanikan semata, namun kepekaan rohani akan membuat kita tinggal tenang menantikan kemenangan iman. Seseorang berkata, "Di saat kereta iman kita sedang melaju melewati terowongan yang gelap, tetaplah tinggal tenang dengan menggenggam tiket penyertaan Tuhan. Jika Kristus harus berjuang dengan keringat darah di Taman Getsemani, maka kekristenan kita pun akan melewati batu ujian iman. Ketajaman mata rohani yang mampu melihat ujian iman tersebut akan melahirkan pertahanan iman, sehingga kita mampu mendeklarasikan iman kita sama seperti Ayub, "Seandainya la menguji aku, aku akan timbul seperti emas." Ujian terhadap iman akan melahirkan ketekunan dan ketekunan akan menghasilkan buah yang matang, yaitu kesaksian kehidupan tentang cinta kasih Tuhan yang tidak pernah gagal. Oleh sebab itu, jadilah tenang dan tinggal percaya untuk mendulang emas rohani di setiap ujian iman yang kita jalani. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa: Tuhan Yesus, berikanlah aku kekuatan-Mu agar dapat menjalani setiap ujian imanku dengan tidak bersungut-sungut, tetapi tetap bersyukur karena aku percaya ujian imanku itu pada akhirnya akan menjadi berkat bagi kehidupanku. Amin. (Dod).
Many forget that Johnny Cash had a first wife, and if they do remember her, they think of her as a vindictive shrew who hated his career. Vivian Liberto Cash has been horribly misrepresented in popular culture, but she supported her husband throughout much of his early career and dealt with anxiety and depression from her husband's drug use and from attacks by the KKK concerning her non-European appearance.

Wigand Sugandi - Lukas 13:27-28 (TB) Tetapi Ia akan berkata kepadamu: Aku tidak tahu dari mana kamu datang, enyahlah dari hadapan-Ku, hai kamu sekalian yang melakukan kejahatan! Di sanalah akan terdapat ratap dan kertak gigi, apabila kamu akan melihat Abraham dan Ishak dan Yakub dan semua nabi di dalam Kerajaan Allah, tetapi kamu sendiri dicampakkan ke luar.
Kej 35:28-29 PENDAHULUAN-Zaman sekarang orang seolah berlomba prestasi. ISHAK-Walaupun kehidupan Ishak tidak ditandai oleh prestasi yang dramatis,melalui garis keturunannya Sang Mesias, Yesus dihadirkan didunia ini. BAGAIMANA TANPA PRESTASI YANG MENONJOL?-Bagaimana kita mensikapi kalau hidup kita biasa biasa saja seperti Ishak tanpa prestasi yang menonjol? PENUTUP-Apa yang seharusnya menjadi ukuran kebahagiaan kita?
Kristus adalah dasar dan Pusat Upacara Persembahan Korban baik pada zaman bapa-bapa dan juga pada zaman Israel, semenjak kejatuhan leluhur kita itu tidak ada lagi komunikasi langsung antara Allah dengan manusia.

More often than not when trying to progress towards a certain performance or body composition related goal (e.g. build muscle, get stronger, or lose body fat) people are immediately drawn to what sounds like ‘the best' approach, or the complexities of nutrition and resistance training..This prevents them from mastering the basics and seeing the big picture..We look for advanced methodologies, techniques, or protocols and proceed to pursue an approach that is inappropriate for our current level of advancement and unsustainable long term..This is sort of like trying to build a house, or skyscraper, without a proper foundation in place..We fail to recognize that before we apply the science of muscle building, we must first learn how to master the basics..These are among a few topics of conversation I had with nutrition overlord Alan Aragon and easily one of my favorite episodes to date..➢ HAWK FIT COACHING: https://hawkfitcoaching.com/.➢ SHOP LEGION: BuyLegion.com/Ishak 'HAWKFIT' FOR 20% OFFSupport the show

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Minggu, 9 Juli 2023 Bacaan: "Hai anakku, janganlah pertimbangan dan kebijaksanaan itu menjauh dari matamu, peliharalah itu." (Amsal 3:21) Renungan: Keputusan Esau menjual hak kesulungannya, salah satunya disebabkan karena tidak adanya pertimbangan atau tidak berpikir panjang. Tentunya Esau juga tahu apa itu hak kesulungan dan berkat-berkat apa saja yang akan diperolehnya melalui hak kesulungan itu. Buktinya setelah ia tahu bahwa ayahnya telah memberkati Yakub, meraung-raunglah ia dengan keras sambil memohon agar Ishak memberkatinya juga. Namun apa boleh buat, semua sudah terlambat. Ketika Esau diperhadapkan pada keinginan yang besar untuk makan bubur kacang merah, ia sama sekali tidak berpikir panjang tentang pentingnya hak kesulungan. Ia terpikat dengan apa yang ada di depan matanya saat itu. Melalui kisah kehidupan Esau kita belajar tentang satu perkara penting, yaitu membiasakan diri berpikir panjang sebelum mengambil keputusan. Seringkali kita begitu terpaku pada keadaan yang ada di depan mata kita, sehingga kita lupa untuk berpikir panjang dan menimbang-nimbang mengenai akibat dari keputusan yang kita ambil. Ada sebuah kata bijak yang berkata, "Mujurlah orang yang tidak tergesa-gesa memutuskan, karena pertimbangan akan mencegah air mata penyesalannya." Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa: Tuhan Yesus, ingatkan aku ketika aku hendak mengambil keputusan. Biarlah hikmat dan kebijaksaan-Mu menguasai hati dan pikiranku, sehingga setiap keputusan yang aku ambil sungguh sesuai dengan kehendak-Mu dan bukan kehendakku sendiri, Yesus, Engkaulah sumber kebijaksanaanku, Amin.

المقابلة الأخيرة للأستاذ المناضل جورج اسحق - تم تسجيل الحلقة قبل وفاته بثلاثة ايام.
In the latest episode of Anabolic Radio I had the pleasure of chatting to @FORTITUDE_TRAINING where we discuss Nuances of Range of Motion.Range of motion is simply the objective measurement our joints/muscles are able to move through..In every exercise there will be 4 phases of a rep:Eccentric (in a squat that will be the downwards motion)Isometric in the Lengthened position (bottom of a squat)Concentric (upwards motion in a squat)Isometric in the Shortened position (top of a squat).For myself and my clients I always program tempo, which is simply allowing us to standardize how long we spend in each 4 phase of a rep. This is incredibly important when it comes to standardization of what you're doing during a set..Back to range of motion- as of late in the industry people have been off their rocker about emphasizing the lengthened position in an exercise. Dr. Scott took a few days, before the episode to brush up on what the current body of literature is suggesting when it comes to whether it's best to train a muscle through a full range of motion, partial, or emphasize the lengthened position..I couldn't think of anyone better to have a deep dive on this topic with, thank you for your time Dr. Scott!!.➢ HAWK FIT COACHING: https://hawkfitcoaching.com/➢ SHOP LEGION: BuyLegion.com/Ishak 'HAWKFIT' FOR 20% OFFCONNECT WITH ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:➢ INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/Ishak_IshakSupport the show
Andrea Acri and Peter Sharrock's The Creative South: Buddhist and Hindu Art in Mediaeval Maritime Asia (2 volumes; Iseas-Yusof Ishak Institute, 2022) examines the creative contribution of Maritime Asia towards shaping new paradigms in the Buddhist and Hindu art and architecture of the mediaeval Asian world. Far from being a mere southern conduit for the maritime circulation of Indic religions, in the period from ca. the 7th to the 14th century those regions transformed across mainland and island polities the rituals, icons, and architecture that embodied these religious insights with a dynamism that often eclipsed the established cultural centres in Northern India, Central Asia, and mainland China. Raj Balkaran is a scholar of Sanskrit narrative texts. He teaches at the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies and at his own virtual School of Indian Wisdom. For information see rajbalkaran.com.

The act of daily kindness can help overcome pain, anxiety, and depression. This episode was partly inspired by an Article from Dr. William IsHak, a professor of psychiatry at Cedars-Sinai medical center where Dr. Ishak uncovers that acts of kindness and giving can be an effective treatment modality for pain, depression, and anxiety. In the article titled the act of kindness, he discusses The simple practice of being kind to others not only elevates our serotonin levels which is also referred to as our happy hormones, but also strengthens the immune system for both the giver and receiver. However, the power of kindness doesn't stop there, recent studies uncovered that those who simply observe the act of giving or kindness achieve the same benefits as the giver and recipient. This is the reason why I titled the episode the "triangle effect of kindness and giving." Because the power and benefits of giving are endless.

Tu as sans doute déjà touché la peau d'un poisson. Sais-tu pourquoi elle est gluante ? Et à quoi servent les écailles qui la recouvrent ? Pour te l'expliquer, Grâce et les Petits Curieux de sciences – Ishak, Salomé et Guillaume – ont rencontré Alan Pradel, maître de conférences du Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle, paléontologue (c'est un scientifique qui étudie l'évolution des espèces) et spécialiste des requins. Il leur a aussi parlé de l'origine des dents (surprise !) et de son métier. Une armure pour les poissons Les écailles servent à protéger les poissons, un peu comme une armure ou une carapace ! Elles leur permettent aussi de nager très vite (tu vas comprendre comment avec l'exemple du requin) ! Mais sais-tu que certains poissons n'en ont pas ? Les écailles, “ancêtres” des dents ? Les écailles tombent et repoussent, un peu comme tes dents ! D'ailleurs, leur structure se ressemble. Des recherches sur des fossiles vieux de plus de 400 millions d'années ont permis de se rendre compte que les écailles ont migré vers la bouche durant l'évolution et que les dents seraient des écailles modifiées… “Curieux de sciences” est une aventure sonore qui entraine les enfants dans l'univers fascinant de la science en stimulant l'imaginaire tout en dévoilant la rigueur et les surprises qui accompagnent les découvertes scientifiques.

Peser la Terre, c'est vraiment très compliqué. Tu veux savoir pourquoi ? Alors, c'est parti pour un petit voyage dans le système solaire pendant lequel tu apprendras aussi beaucoup de choses sur la gravité, les étoiles filantes, les astéroïdes, les météorites, l'origine de notre planète et de la Lune… “On ne connaît jamais vraiment précisément la masse de la Terre…” “Ce sont des nombres gigantesques…” Grâce et les Petits curieux de sciences – Sarah, Amine, Ishak – ont interrogé Brigitte Zanda, enseignante-chercheuse du Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle, spécialiste des météorites. Elle a répondu à leurs nombreuses questions (“Est-ce que la Terre peut s'alourdir ?” “Comment s'est formée la Terre ?” “Si une grosse météorite tombait sur la Terre, comment ferait-on ?”…) et leur a montré une météorite… “Curieux de sciences” est une aventure sonore qui entraine les enfants dans l'univers fascinant de la science en stimulant l'imaginaire tout en dévoilant la rigueur et les surprises qui accompagnent les découvertes scientifiques.

What is the relationship between the military and the monarchy in Thailand? How has that relationship changed since King Vajiralongkorn (Rama X) assumed the throne in 2016? Why have recent military coups in Thailand been staged partly in order to defend the throne? And how far can earlier interpretations of Thai politics be adapted to explain the growing influence of the monarchy in recent years? Supalak Ganjanakhundee discusses his new fascinating book A Soldier King: Monarchy and Military in the Thailand of Rama X (ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute, 2022) with Duncan McCargo, director of the Nordic Institute of Asian Studies, University of Copenhagen. Supalak is a former editor of The Nation newspaper, and a visiting fellow at the Pridi Banomyong Institute, Thammasat University, Thailand. “The book is a significant contribution to understanding the important yet shifting patterns of relationship between the monarchy and military in Thailand. It is widely known that the monarchy-military union has played crucial roles in politics throughout modern Thai history. This book: A Soldier King: Monarchy and Military in the Thailand of Rama X offers a comprehensive account and sound analysis about the newly formed monarchy-military network, demonstrating clearly how the new king tightens his grip since late 2016 as well as his different style from his late father King Bhumibol.” -- Charnvit Kasetsiri, Thammasat University, Bangkok Enjoyed this episode?
