| Yoh 21:1 | Kemudian Yesus menampakkan diri lagi kepada murid-murid-Nya di pantai danau Tiberias dan Ia menampakkan diri sebagai berikut. |
| Yoh 21:2 | Di pantai itu berkumpul Simon Petrus, Tomas yang disebut Didimus, Natanael dari Kana yang di Galilea, anak-anak Zebedeus dan dua orang murid-Nya yang lain. |
| Yoh 21:3 | Kata Simon Petrus kepada mereka: "Aku pergi menangkap ikan." Kata mereka kepadanya: "Kami pergi juga dengan engkau." Mereka berangkat lalu naik ke perahu, tetapi malam itu mereka tidak menangkap apa-apa. |
| Yoh 21:4 | Ketika hari mulai siang, Yesus berdiri di pantai; akan tetapi murid-murid itu tidak tahu, bahwa itu adalah Yesus. |
| Yoh 21:5 | Kata Yesus kepada mereka: "Hai anak-anak, adakah kamu mempunyai lauk-pauk?" Jawab mereka: "Tidak ada." |
| Yoh 21:6 | Maka kata Yesus kepada mereka: "Tebarkanlah jalamu di sebelah kanan perahu, maka akan kamu peroleh." Lalu mereka menebarkannya dan mereka tidak dapat menariknya lagi karena banyaknya ikan. |
| Yoh 21:7 | Maka murid yang dikasihi Yesus itu berkata kepada Petrus: "Itu Tuhan." Ketika Petrus mendengar, bahwa itu adalah Tuhan, maka ia mengenakan pakaiannya, sebab ia tidak berpakaian, lalu terjun ke dalam danau. |
| Yoh 21:8 | Murid-murid yang lain datang dengan perahu karena mereka tidak jauh dari darat, hanya kira-kira dua ratus hasta saja dan mereka menghela jala yang penuh ikan itu. |
| Yoh 21:9 | Ketika mereka tiba di darat, mereka melihat api arang dan di atasnya ikan dan roti. |
| Yoh 21:10 | Kata Yesus kepada mereka: "Bawalah beberapa ikan, yang baru kamu tangkap itu." |
| Yoh 21:11 | Simon Petrus naik ke perahu lalu menghela jala itu ke darat, penuh ikan-ikan besar: seratus lima puluh tiga ekor banyaknya, dan sungguhpun sebanyak itu, jala itu tidak koyak. |
| Yoh 21:12 | Kata Yesus kepada mereka: "Marilah dan sarapanlah." Tidak ada di antara murid-murid itu yang berani bertanya kepada-Nya: "Siapakah Engkau?" Sebab mereka tahu, bahwa Ia adalah Tuhan. |
| Yoh 21:13 | Yesus maju ke depan, mengambil roti dan memberikannya kepada mereka, demikian juga ikan itu. |
| Yoh 21:14 | Itulah ketiga kalinya Yesus menampakkan diri kepada murid-murid-Nya sesudah Ia bangkit dari antara orang mati. |
RENUNGAN
Tuhan Yesus menampakan diri Nya kepada para murid Nya untuk ketiga kalinya, sama seperti ketika Tuhan Yesus memanggil Petrus untuk menjadi murid Nya dengan mukjizat tangkapan yang banyak, kali ini Tuhan Yesus juga membuat jala yang ditebarkan Petrus dan para murid yang lain menjadi banyak. Sehingga salah satu murid Yesus menyadari bahwa itu adalah Tuhan Yesus sendiri.
Tuhan Yesus sangat mengasihi murid Nya hingga pada penampakan kali ini Tuhan Yesus membuat mukjizat mendapatkan ikan yang banyak sekali sampai 150 ekor ikan yang besar - besar. Setelah kebangkitan Tuhan Yesus, mukjizat ini memberikan para murid bahan makanan karena mereka sedang lapar dan tidak mendapat apapun untuk dimakan. Ia sangat mengasihi murid Nya hingga Ia memberikan pengajaran memberikan roti dan makan ikan bersama Dia.
Mukjizat Nya pun terjadi karena Murid Tuhan Yesus mematuhi perintah Tuhan untuk menebarkan Jala ke arah yang dituju oleh Tuhan Yesus. Akankah kita mendengarkan perintah Tuhan untuk mencari rejeki yang sudah Tuhan arahkan kepada kita. Terkadang Tuhan menunjukan jalan untuk mencari rejeki kepada kita dengan berbagai cara, apakah kita sudah menuruti kehendak Nya ? sebab Tuhan tidak mungkin membuat kita kelaparan, Tuhan pasti memberi kita makan bagi yang percaya kepada Nya, Ia tidak mungkin meninggalkan kita, sebab mukjizat Nya adalah kasih cinta Nya kepada kita manusia ini. Ia mengetahui kerapuhan manusia, lapar, haus, ingin mendapatkan makanan yang banyak, jika kita menuruti perintah Nya maka semua itu akan ditambahkan kepada kita, seperti ajaran Nya carilah dahulu kerajaan Allah maka semua akan ditambahkan bagi Mu.
DOA
Ya Tuhan aku mau menebarkan jalan
Sesuai dengan perintah yang kau beri kepada Ku
Aku ingin mendapatkan ikan sesuai yang perintah kan Tuhan
Aku tahu Engkau akan memberikan aku rejeki
Hanya di dalam nama Mu lah aku berharap Tuhan
Amen
ENGLISH
John 21:1-14 (English Standard Version)
After this Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, and he revealed himself in this way.
Simon Peter, Thomas (called the Twin), Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together.
Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said to him, “We will go with you.” They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.
Just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.
Jesus said to them, “Children, do you have any fish?” They answered him, “No.”
He said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, because of the quantity of fish.
That disciple whom Jesus loved therefore said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment, for he was stripped for work, and threw himself into the sea.
The other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from the land, but about a hundred yards off.
When they got out on land, they saw a charcoal fire in place, with fish laid out on it, and bread.
Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish that you have just caught.”
So Simon Peter went aboard and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish, 153 of them. And although there were so many, the net was not torn.
Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” Now none of the disciples dared ask him, “Who are you?” They knew it was the Lord.
Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and so with the fish.
This was now the third time that Jesus was revealed to the disciples after he was raised from the dead.
REFLECTION
Lord Jesus revealed Himself to His disciples for the third time, just as when He called Peter to be His disciple with the miracle of a great catch of fish. This time, Jesus also made the net cast by Peter and the other disciples abundant. So, one of Jesus' disciples realized that it was the Lord Jesus Himself.
Lord Jesus loved His disciples so much that in this appearance, He performed the miracle of obtaining a large number of fish, up to 150 large fish. After the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, this miracle provided food for the disciples because they were hungry and had nothing to eat. He loved His disciples so much that He gave them instructions to break bread and eat fish with Him.
His miracles happened because the disciples of the Lord Jesus obeyed God's command to cast the net in the direction pointed out by Jesus. Will we listen to God's command to seek the provision that He has directed us to? Sometimes, God shows us the way to seek provision in various ways. Have we obeyed His will? For God will not let us go hungry; He will surely provide food for those who believe in Him. He will not forsake us, for His miracles are His love for us humans. He knows the frailty of humans, hungry, thirsty, wanting plenty of food. If we follow His command, all of these will be added unto us, as His teachings say, seek first the kingdom of God and all these things will be added unto you.
PRAYER
Oh Lord, I want to cast the net
According to the command you have given to me
I want to obtain fish as you command, Lord
I know You will provide for me
In Your name alone, I hope, Lord
Amen.
