There was a black family in Scotland years ago. They were
Clark family with nine children. They had a dream to go to America. The family
worked and saved. They were making plan to travel with their children to
America. It had taken several years but finally they had saved enough money.
They had gotten passport. They had booked seats for the whole family member in
a new liner to America.
The entire family was full of anticipation and excitement
with their new life in America. However few days before their departure, the
youngest son was bitten by a dog. The doctor sewed up the boy. Because of the
possibility of getting rabies, there were being quarantined for long days. They were in
quarantine when the departure time came. The family dreams were dashed. They
could not make the trip to America as they had planned.
The father was full of disappointed and anger. He stomped
the dock to watch the ship leaved without him and his family. He shed tears of
disappointment. He cursed both his son and God for the misfortune.
Five days latter, the tragic news spread throughout
Scotland. The ship, the mighty Titanic, had shank. It took hundreds of
passenger and crew with it. Titanic which had been called the unsinkable ship
had sunk. It was unbelievable but it was.
The Clark family should
have been on that ship, but because of the bitten son by a dog, they were left
behind. When the father heard the news, he hugged the son and thanked him for saving
the family. He thanked God for saving their lives. It was a blessing behind a
tragedy. (Adapted from Look Ahead 2)

Berkah
Dibalik Tragedi
Beberapa tahun yang lalu ada sebuah keluarga kulit hitam di Skotlandia. Mereka adalah keluarga Clark dengan sembilan anaknya. Mereka memiliki mimpi untuk pergi ke Amerika. Keluarga itu bekerja dan hasilnya ditabung. Mereka membuat rencana untuk bepergian dengan anak-anak mereka ke Amerika. Hal ini terjadi selama beberapa tahun, hingga akhirnya mereka mempunyai tabungan yang cukup banyak . Mereka sudah memiliki paspor. Mereka telah memesan kursi untuk seluruh anggota keluarga di sebuah kapal baru untuk pergi ke Amerika.
Seluruh keluarga itu sangat antisipasi dan gembira dengan kehidupan baru mereka di Amerika. Namun beberapa hari sebelum keberangkatan , putra bungsu mereka digigit anjing. Dokter menjahit luka anak itu. Karena kemungkinan terkena rabies, dia harus dirawat selama berhari-hari. Mereka masih berada di rumah sakit waktu keberangkatan tiba. Mimpi-mimpi keluarga mereka putus. Mereka tidak bisa melakukan perjalanan ke Amerika seperti yang mereka rencanakan.
Sang ayah merasa sangat kecewa dan marah. Dia menghentakan kaki di dermaga untuk melihat kapal pergi berlayar tanpa dia dan keluarganya. Dia meneteskan air mata kekecewaan. Dia mengutuk kepada anaknya dan Tuhan atas kemalangan yang terjadi.
Lima hari terakhir, berita tragis menyebar di seluruh Skotlandia. Kapal, perkasa Titanic, telah tenggelam. Itu mengangkut ratusan penumpang dan kru. Titanic yang dianggap sebagai kapal yg tidak dapat tenggelam, akhirnya tenggelam. Itu sangat sulit dipercaya.
Keluarga Clark seharusnya berada di kapal itu, tetapi karena anak mereka digigit anjing, mereka tertinggal. Ketika ayah itu mendengar berita itu, ia memeluk anak dan mengucapkan terima kasih karena telah menyelamatkan keluarga. Ia bersyukur pada Allah karena telah menyelamatkan hidup mereka. Ini adalah berkah di balik tragedi.
