May isa akong Gospel na narinig a few weeks ago na hindi ko masyado naiintindihan. yung "we do not sew old patches of cloth with new ones and we do not pour new wine into old wineskins". sige pending question ko iyan. hehe. itatanong ko bukas, kasi may study ako bukas ulit ^__^ yay

Bale ang reflection ko ngayon ay isa sa mga sinabi ni Jesus pagkatapos Niyang piliin ang 12 desciples, "you cannot bring earthly riches into the Kingdom of Heaven, thus you should collect Heavenly treasures instead"

Tama nga naman. Kasi karamihan ng mga tao ngayon ay concentrated sa pera. Hindi ko din naman sila masisisi kasi napaka-hirap na nga ng buhay ngayon pero sabi din ni Jesus na "don't worry about what you will eat tomorrow" at "man shouldn't live on bread alone but on the Word of God" pero practically speaking "nasa Diyos ang awa nasa tao ang gawa" di ba? Sa palagay ko, God uncovers all the choices. He gives us all the means to survive as well as the free will to choose whichever path we want. And it's up to us if we will use these talents and gifts for the betterment of mankind.

Kapag tinatanong ang college students kung bakit nila kinuha ang kursong pinag-gugugulan nila ng panahon ngayon, madalas financial reasons ang sagot. Pero sana sa lahat ng ginagawa natin, we should always focus on how to change things for the better. Every step, I hope, would lead us to the path God wants us to follow - the one that He knows would be good for us. Everything has a reason and we may not understand it as we are today but the time will come and the truth will be unfolded before our very eyes. And by that time, we should be ready.

Therefore in preparation of that fateful day, we should gather kind deeds. No act of generosity is too small to be ignored by God. Everything is recorded, even if we think no one is watching. Kahit gaano kaliit pa yan, siguradong dagdag 10,000 pogi/ganda points yan kay God. well, as long as hindi naman natin masyado pinangangalandakan just for the fame (or other ulterior motives).

Kaya ang lesson for the day, keep God at the center of everything that we do. Because if He's there, we can be certain that nothing would go wrong.

Hey there! hehe

yay! start nanaman ako ng reflection ko for today. ang verse na isa sa mga nagustuhan ko sa manga na "Messiah" ay yung John 4: 46-54.
Isa ito sa mga maraming pagpapatunay ng kapangyarihan na ipinamalas ni Jesus habang nandito Siya sa lupa.

Isang araw, may biglang lumapit sa kanya na isang mataas na Roman officer na humihingi ng tulong kasi may malubhang sakit yung anak niya. Nagrerequest siya na sumama sa kanya si Jesus para pagalingin ang anak nya pero hindi na pumunta sa Capernaum si Jesus, sinabi lang Niya na mabubuhay ang anak ng sundalo at yun na yun. Infairness, gumaling nga ang anak nya, as soon as Jesus spoke the words "Your son will live" Astig di ba? galing talaga ng kapangyarihan ni God. Anything can happen and He can make it happen with just a few words.

Madami nang "everyday miracles" na nangyari sa buhay ko - at napatunayan ko nang totoo ang verse na ito. Naalala ko tuloy yung UPCAT. Sobrang hindi ako confident duon, paranoid na paranoid ako sa totoo lang. Ang daming "what ifs" nang dumaan sa isip ko, out of desperation na din siguro, naisipan ko mag Simbang Gabi kasama yung kasambahay namin dati na si Ate Luman.

Yung pamilya namin kasi, nung kasama pa namin si Nanay C, relihiyoso talaga. May mga padasal pa noon at naalala ko pa yung pagro-rosary namin nung bata pa ako. Pero ngayon, nakakalungkot mang isipin, tumamlay na ang "church activities" na pinupuntahan namin. Nagkakaroon lang ng pagkakataon pag bumibisita sa amin yung figurine ni Mama Mary na galing sa chapel namin dito sa village. Ayun nakakapag rosary kami.

Anyway, sa kabutihang palad, dininig naman ang aking mga panalangin and right now I'm living my dream to be an "Iskolar ng Bayan". Nakakalungkot din nga at medyo masama ang studying habits ko at hindi ko masyadong napapaghandaan ang mga exams ko. Narealize ko ngayon na sobrang laking bagay ngapala ang ibinigay sa akin ni Lord. Isa itong malaking blessing as well as a big responsibility because whatever i do with my life right now will determine the outcome of my future.

Ang saya pala mag reflection. Nostalgic at nakaka-enlighten. Lesson for the day, believe in Jesus, believe in God because with Him, nothing is impossible =) Winner Ka po talaga Lord. Thank you for bringing me this far. Aja!

It's happenning.

Matagal na akong nagbabalak na magbasa ng Bible. Sa totoo lang, I had several attempts. I started with the creation of the earth but I didn't get the chance to finish it. Nakakalungkot nga kasi parang Ningas Cogon lang ako. Pero ngayon, I'm taking the step that can change my spiritual life forever. Nag-bi-bible study na ako! yay! Medyo late na nga ang reflection na ito kasi 2nd study ko na nung wednesday. >__<

Ang pinag-aralan namin last time ay tungkol kay Jesus; kung anong klaseng tao Siya nung bumaba Siya dito sa lupa. I learned that the Holy Trinity represents the three phases of one supreme Being, si God. So far, maganda naman ang mga nakukuha kong lessons at hindi naman ako masyado na co-confuse. Yun ngalang may mga "conflicting" teachings. Sabagay, kanya-kanyang interpretation naman yan. Ako nga eh, laging weird ang interpretation sa mga reading comprehension. Naalala ko tuloy ang aking "Wooden Table" days.

Anyway, that's beside the point. hehe. So, ang reflection ko ngayon ay yung Gospel kahapon (parable of the weeds and the mustard seed: 13:24-32). Sabi ni Father Arre, "We don't need to be perfect to please God. As long as we strive to do better and accept that we have faults the right time will come and we will be rewarded" <--yun ang pagkaka-intindi ko hehe.

Tagos sa akin yung Gospel na yun, kasi aminado akong OC ako. hehe ^^. Tama nga naman, we could never be perfect pero we could always do our best to change the things that we can (prayer of St. Francis) di ba? kaya ngayon, natuturuan na talaga ako ng leksyon. Sa aking paghahangad na gawing "perfect" ang mga bagay-bagay, ang dami kong kinuhang responsibilidad. I bit more than I could chew, ika nga. Hindi ko naman pwedeng i-discard lang bigla ang lahat ng iyon kaya hindi na muna ako kukuha ng additional. At pagbubutihan ko kung ano man ang nasa kamay ko ngayon. Ang OC ko kasi e, sana ma-covert nalang yung O sa G! hahaha wish ko lang. Dito na nagtatapos ang reflection ko para sa araw na ito. sana regular na akong mag-update ng reflections para masaya. ^__^ AJA!
