Pesan Paska 2022 oleh Uskup Cornelius Piong (dwi-bahasa)

Pesan Paska 2022 oleh Uskup Cornelius Piong (dwi-bahasa)

Kepada siapa kita menaruh harapan dalam hidup ini?

Selamat Paska. Kristus bangkit dari mati dan kini hidup selama-lamanya. Syukur kita hidup dalam era sesudah kebangkitan Kristus dan Dia berjanji menyertai kita sampai akhir zaman (Mat.28:20). Bagi kita yang hidup sesudah kebangkitan-Nya kita hanya perlu percaya dan menaruh harapan kepada-Nya.

Pernahkah kita bertanya pada diri kita bagaimana harapan para pengikut Yesus, sewaktu Dia memberitahu bahawa Dia akan mengalami penganiayaan, kesengsaraan dan kematian tetapi pada hari ketiga akan bangkit? Kita boleh bayangkan bagaimana perasaan antara percaya dan ragu-ragu yang ada pada mereka sampailah ke hari kebangkitan Yesus, apabila mereka melihat dan mengalami kehadiran-Nya bersama mereka, itupun ada yang percaya, tetapi ada juga yang masih ragu-ragu (Mat. 28:17).

Melihat dan merenung tentang keadaan dunia kita pada masa kini, dengan berbagai  macam kejadian yang merisaukan dan menakutkan – virus Covid-19, bencana alam hampir di seluruh dunia, keganasan yang sedang berlaku di Myanmar dan Ukraine – bagaimanakah pengharapan kita kepada kehadiran dan perlindungan Tuhan? Apakah keraguan sudah mulai menguasai hati kita, seperti yang selalu diungkapkan oleh mereka yang tidak percaya kepada kehadiran dan penyelanggaraan Tuhan, “Jika Tuhan ada dan hadir, mengapa Dia biarkan semuanya ini berlaku?”

Saudara-saudari, perayaan Paska bagi kita umat beriman, adalah kesempatan membaharui dan menetapkan kembali iman, harapan dan kasih kita kepada Tuhan. Dengan bimbingan dan kuasa Roh Kudus marilah kita belajar dari gaya hidup umat Kristian awal yang diilhami dan disemangati oleh harapan kepada kebangkitan Kristus, hidup dalam semangat komuniti, ambil peduli terhadap kebajikan sesama dan mewartakan Kristus, (KPR. 2:41-47;4:32-33).

Kita yakin bahawa perjalanan kita bersama sebagai Umat Paska yang dibantu, diajar dan dingatkan oleh Roh Kudus serta didampingi oleh Bonda Maria, kita akan mampu menghadapi dan mengatasi cabaran-cabaran hidup yang merisaukan dan menakutkan pada masa kini, kerana Tuhan kita Yesus sudah bangkit dan kini hidup bersama kita selama-lamanya.

Semoga perayaan Paska ini membawa suatu pengalaman pembaharuan dan peneguhan keyakinan kita kepada penyelenggaraan Kristus dalam diri kita, keluarga dan komuniti.

Selamat Paska!

+Bishop Datuk Cornelius Piong

Easter Message 2022

 

To whom do we place our hope in this life?

Blessed Easter. Christ rose from the dead and now lives forever. We are thankful  to live in the era after the resurrection of Christ and He promises to be with us until the end of time (Matt. 28: 20). For those of us who live after His resurrection, we just need to believe and put our hope in Him.

Have we ever asked ourselves what was the hope of the followers of Jesus, when He told us that He would experience persecution, suffering and death but on the third day would rise? We can imagine how the feeling between believing and doubting was in them until the day of Jesus’ resurrection, when they saw and experienced His presence with them, even then some believed, but some still doubted (Matt. 28: 17).

Looking and contemplating the state of our world today, with all sorts of disturbing and frightening events – the Covid-19 virus, natural disasters almost all over the world, the ongoing violence in Myanmar and Ukraine – how is our hope for God’s presence and protection? Has doubt begun to take over our hearts, as has always been expressed by those who do not believe in God’s presence and omission, “If God exists and is present, why does He allow all these to happen?”

Brothers and sisters, the celebration of Easter for us believers is an opportunity to renew and reaffirm our faith, hope and love for God. With the guidance and power of the Holy Spirit, let us learn from the early Christian lifestyle inspired by the hope of Christ’s resurrection, living in the spirit of community, caring for the welfare of others and preaching Christ, (Acts 2: 41-47; 4: 32-33).

We are confident that our journey together as Easter People assisted, taught and reminded by the Holy Spirit and accompanied by the Virgin Mary, we will be able to face and overcome the challenges of life that are troubling and frightening today, because our Lord Jesus has risen and now live with us forever.

May this Easter celebration bring an experience of renewal and strengthens our faith in Christ’s care and love for us, our families and communities.

Blessed Easter!

+Bishop Datuk Cornelius Piong
