beberapa saat lalu gua mendengarkan lagu berjudul "Jesus take the wheel" dari carrie underwood, yang lirik lengkapnya seperti di bawah ini..

"Jesus take the wheel"
carrie underwood
lirik diambil dari sini
she was driving last friday on her way to cincinnati
on a snow white christmas eve
going home to see her mama and her daddy with the baby in the backseat
fifty miles to go and she was running low on faith and gasoline
it would been a long hard year
she had a lot on her mind and she didn't pay attention
she was going way to fast
before she knew it she was spinning on a thin black sheet of glass
she saw both their lives flash before her eyes
she didn't even have time to cry
she was sooo scared
she threw her hands up in the air
Jesus take the wheel
take it from my hands
cause i can't do this all on my own
i'm letting go
so give me one more chance
so save me from this road i'm on
Jesus take the wheel
it was still getting colder when she made it to the shoulder
and the car came to a stop
she cried when she saw that baby in the backseat sleeping like a rock
and for the first time in a long time
she bowed her head to pray
she said i'm sorry for the way
i've been living my life
i know i've got to change
so from now on tonight
Jesus take the wheel
take it from my hands
cause i can't do this on my own
i'm letting go
so give me one more chance
to save me from this road i'm on
oh, Jesus take the wheel
oh, i'm letting go
so give me one more chance
save me from this road i'm on
from this road i'm on
Jesus take the wheel
oh, take it, take it from me
oh, why, oh

ada banyak kata2 dalam lirik lagu ini yang buat gua membawa pesan mendalam.. di antaranya :
she was running low on faith and gasoline
it would been a long hard year
disadari ataupun tidak, ketika hidup sedang menghadapi badai, biasanya masalah iman itu mengemuka.. can you still be faithful when things don't go as you plan? can you still be faithful when you didn't get what you've always wanted? can you still be faithful if you still can't see the fulfilled promised? can you still be faithful when things seem to go from bad to worse and there's no sign of getting better? can you?
mengikut Tuhan di kala doa dengan cepat terjawab itu amatlah mudah. mengikut Tuhan di kala kemenangan demi kemenanganlah yang berhasil dipetik tidak membutuhkan usaha keras.
tapi bisakah kita tetap setia di dalamNya di kala doa lamaa sekali tidak dijawab2? bisakah tetap setia ketika lagi2 membentur jalan buntu dan kemenangan amat jauh dari genggaman?
she threw her hands up in the air
Jesus take the wheel
take it from my hands
cause i can't do this all on my own
menyerah dan berserah walaupun sama2 ada kata 'erah'-nya itu tapi maknanya jelas jauh sekali berbeda lho! menyerah itu tanda mengakui kekalahan, sudah kaga ada keinginan untuk memperjuangkan sesuatu. sementara berserah itu mengakui ada kuasa lain yang jauh lebih besar yang bisa mengendalikan semuanya, jadi ia akan tetap melakukan yang terbaik tapi tidak berusaha mengendalikan hasilnya.
seberapa sering ya kita berusaha mengambil kendali kehidupan kita? padahal cape lho berusaha untuk mengendalikan segala sesuatu agar berjalan sesuai keinginan kita tanpa ada celah sedikitpun untuk melenceng! dan mungkin ini juga yang membuat kita seringkali merasa lelah dan berujung pada krisis iman.
for the first time in a long time
she bowed her head to pray
she said i'm sorry for the way
i've been living my life
i know i've got to change
menyadari bahwa ada sesuatu yang salah itu adalah sebuah langkah yang bagus menuju perubahan tapi agar perubahan itu benar2 terjadi, diperlukan suatu tindakan nyata agar perubahan itu bisa dirasakan hasilnya, dann.. ini susah lho, terutama untuk mengubah kebiasaan yang seolah sudah mendarah daging, yaikss..
the question remains..
will us let Jesus to take the wheel and be in fully-control of our life? ;)
