“Bon Camino!”

June 25, 2022
in Im on my Way, Opinion
Anugerah Tuhan

SEMUA orang tahu kisah Hansel dan Gretel serta jejak serbuk roti yang membawa mereka pulang dengan selamat. Perumpamaan yang indah tentang orang yang sedang dalam penziarahan  mencari jalan pulang. Sebuah kisah tentang ziarah kita melalui kehidupan.

Jalan yang kita lalui tidak pernah lurus, tetapi, seperti sungai yang berliku-liku, membawa kita sekarang ke kanan kemudian ke kiri, ke atas dan ke bawah, ke hadapan dan sekali lagi ke belakang. Berada di jalan ini, kita seperti kanak-kanak di pesta ria, ditarik oleh pelbagai tarikan untuk mengalih perhatian dan menarik kita dari tempat yang sepatutnya ditujui. Hanya serbuk roti yang menunjukkan jalan pulang.

Beberapa tahun yang lalu, saya menyertai “The Camino” (Bahasa Sepanyol untuk “jalan”) ke Santiago de Compostela. Sejak awal Abad Pertengahan, beribu-ribu penziarah mengembara dari mana sahaja di Eropah ke makam Rasul Yakobus, yang dihormati di Katedral Santiago de Compostela.

Saya bertolak dari León di utara Sepanyol dengan berjalan kaki sejauh 300 km. Secara automatik perkataan Yesus terlintas di fikiran, “Akulah jalan, kebenaran dan hidup”.

Di Camino, semua orang menyapa orang lain dengan “Bon Camino” (selamat jalan). Sesungguhnya, kita akan menjalani ziarah yang baik dalam kehidupan dengan mengambil apa yang Yesus katakan ke dalam hati, “Setiap orang yang mau mengikut Aku, ia harus menyangkal dirinya, memikul salibnya dan mengikut Aku” (Matius 16:24).

Pada perjamuan terakhir, Yesus memberikan kepada murid-muridNya tubuh dan darahNya, Ekaristi, yang dalam banyak cara merumuskan semua yang Dia berikan kepada kita dalam tujuh sakramen, iaitu, Jalan untuk mengikut Dia.

Sakramen ditakrifkan sebagai tanda lahiriah realiti dalaman. Tanda luaran ialah perayaan di gereja pada hari dan masa tertentu, tetapi realiti dalaman adalah bahagian yang lebih penting iaitu hubungan dinamik dengan Tuhan. Tanpa ini, dalam kata-kata Santo Paulus VI, kita adalah “orang kafir yang dibaptiskan”.

Katekesis yang lebih baik dan bantuan pastoral adalah bertepatan. Banyak buku teologi membantu kita memahami inti perayaan sakramen, iaitu kasih Tuhan yang kekal dan setia, yang ditandatangani dengan darah Yesus di kayu salib. Terdapat juga banyak terbitan mengenai perkara yang boleh dan tidak boleh dilakukan, tetapi, saya percaya, terdapat sedikit pandangan pastoral tentang cara menjalankan sakramen setiap hari.

Sebagai kesimpulan, saya cuba di sini untuk memberikan perspektif pastoral tentang beberapa sakramen.

Pembaptisan bermaksud rendaman dalam air! Yesus membenamkan diriNya ke dalam kemanusiaan kita, mendahului keilahian dan kemuliaanNya di surga. Apabila kita mengikut Yesus, kita mesti menerima keadaan dan batasan manusia yang berdosa dan tidak berlindung dalam realiti palsu (kuasa, wang, menjadi “orang kudus”). Hanya dengan itu kita akan tahu “Bukan kita yang telah mengasihi Tuhan, tetapi Tuhan yang telah mengasihi kita” (1 Yohanes 4:10).

Penguatan ialah turunnya Roh Kudus! Apabila Roh turun ke atas Yesus, Anak Terkasih, Bapa segera mengutus Dia ke padang gurun di antara binatang buas untuk digoda oleh syaitan tetapi dilayani oleh malaikat. Mengikuti Yesus, Roh mendorong kita setiap hari ke dalam kejahatan dunia ini, di mana setiap hari kita dicobai, tetapi tidak pernah tanpa malaikat untuk melayani kita.

Pertobatan dan Pengurapan orang sakit adalah dua sisi pengampunan dan penyembuhan Tuhan. Yesus menunjukkan hubungan mereka apabila Dia berkata kepada orang lumpuh itu “supaya kamu tahu, bahwa di dunia ini Anak Manusia berkuasa mengampuni dosa — Kepadamu Kukatakan, bangunlah, angkatlah tempat tidurmu dan pulanglah ke rumahmu!”(Markus 2:10).

Apabila kita pergi untuk mengaku dosa atau menerima pengurapan orang sakit, kita meminta terang Yesus untuk menunjukkan kepada kita karya Tuhan di dalam kita, iaitu, “mendamaikan dunia dengan diriNya” (2 Korintus 5:19).

Oleh itu, mengikut Yesus tidak bermakna pertama sekali mengaku dosa kita (ini hanya satu bahagian), tetapi bekerjasama dengan Dia dalam kerja pendamaianNya (dengan Tuhan, orang lain, dan ciptaan).

Soalan-soalan:

  1. Apakah realiti palsu dalam hidup anda di mana anda berlindung?
  2. Untuk mengikut Yesus, apakah realiti dan batasan manusia yang perlu anda terima?

Fr Guido Gockel MHM

Seorang ahli St Joseph’s Missionary Society of Mill Hill, berpusat di London, Father Guido ditahbis menjadi paderi pada tahun 1969. Sejurus selepas pentahbisannya, dia diutus ke Malaysia (Sarawak) di mana dia melayani sebagai misionaris selama 18 tahun.

Sewaktu bercuti di Sabah, dia diperkenalkan kepada sekumpulan anak muda yang terlibat dengan Pergerakan Karismatik (CCR). Pengalaman ini membantunya menjadi instrumental dalam memperkenalkan CCR di Miri, Sarawak, di mana dia diberi misi di stasi luar.

Setelah tujuh tahun tempoh misionarisnya yang pertama pada awal tahun 70-an, dia kembali ke Malaysia untuk tiga lagi misi dan banyak lawatan jangka pendek. Dia tahu berbahasa ‘Melayu pasar’ dan lain-lain Bahasa negeri Sarawak.

Catholic Sabah berpeluang mendekati Fr Guido, yang sangat bermurah hati memberi masanya untuk menulis selama satu tahun di bawah kolum bertajuk “I’m On My Way”, sejak pelancaran portal online Catholic Sabah pada tahun 2020.

Berbekal sedikit galakan, Fr Guido bersetuju untuk terus menulis, dan Catholic Sabah membuat keputusan untuk memuat naik penulisannya sekali sebulan, dalam Bahasa Inggeris dan Bahasa Melayu.

Fr Guido terbuka untuk sebarang soalan untuk perbincangan dan penjelasan lanjut. Dia boleh dihubungi melalui emel  frguidomhm@gmail.com.
