THE 4 GIVES
Nakakatawa. First breather ko from the stress of acads ang pag-attend ko ng Renewal Seminar para sa mga Lectors and Commentators kahapon (Saturday). First breather ko rin ito from the stress brought about by HIM. Pero pero pero, parang ayaw akong lubayan ng mga kyeme reminding me of who else--- HIM and the pain brought by, guess who--- HIM.
Pa’no kamo nangyari ‘yon? Kasi naman, itong si Fr. Dennis na speaker/facilitator ng seminar--- ang iskema niya to get the attention of the assembly was some love-connected discussion. Edi syempre, attentive ang ate mo! Pero kasi naman, the subject of the whole seminar was God’s love for us and how we may love Him in return. So love talaga ang usapan. God’s love. Pero alam niyo naman ako, syempre, nakahanap na naman ako ng paraan para mai-connect na naman ito sa aking pressing love concerns. Hahaha…
So there. Fr. Dennis discussed the 4 GIVES. Natauhan na naman ako sa 4 gives na ito. Sabi ko nga kay Kambal, abangan niya dahil paniguradong nasa blog ko na ito pagkatapos…kaya ayan, heto na siya.
THE 4 GIVES (according to my notes)
1 Give up revenge
Sabi ni Father, we have to be convinced that vengeance brings us nowhere. Kasi cyclical ‘yan---continuous. Instead of revenge, dapat daw we allow the pain that we’re feeling to empower us--- to go with the feeling of pain and we will definitely find the power to strike back.
Teka wait--- wala naman akong planong revenge, pero syempre, parang revenge na rin ‘yung winiwish ko na maramdaman niya ‘yung pain na nararamdaman ko. Na nahihirapan ako, dapat siya rin. Bad ‘yun.
2 Give up PRIDE
Hay--- ito na ang pinaka-mahirap sa lahat para sa akin. Sabi ni Father, dapat daw we humble ourselves to accept that we have also hurt other people. Na at one point, nakasakit ‘din naman tayo. And if napatawad tayo ng mga nasaktan natin, we have no right na hindi patawarin ang mga nagkasala sa atin, diba?
Iba naman kasi ang pagiging humble sa pagpapaka-tanga. I think one swallows his pride when he allows himself to feel tha pain and to accept his fate and ‘yun nga, eventually finds strength on the pain. Pagpapakatanga I think if you allow yourself to be vulnerable because of the pain.
3 Give another chance
Sos. Kailangan pa bang i-memorize ‘yan? Hindi naman issue yung pagbibigay ng isa pang chance. Dahil wala namang chance na nasayang--- at wala namang chance na dapat ibigay to start with.
4 Give the love of Jesus
It was unconditional. Regardless of. No matter what. Hindi naghihintay o naghahanap ng reciprocation o ng kapalit. It was the love I was willing to give--- actually, if you really think about it, it was the love that I felt for him. Hay…
Pero there were two important things mentioned in the seminar that eventually got me---
God has another plan…and---
…may mga pagpili na nakakapagpabago ng buhay--- any choice made by faith is life-changing.
‘nuf said naman di’ba?
