The Sunday Gospel and The Monday Scripture

Dear Anak,

Naipadala ko na ang 50thousand pesos na pang tuition mo, pinagbili na namin yung kalabaw natin. ang mahal pala, COUNTERSTRIKE na kurso!

Wala na rin pala tayong mga baboy, naipagbili na rin namin, para sa sinasabi mong project, Nokia N75 ba yun? Ang mahal naman ng project mo!

Kasama din doon ang 7thousand pesos para sa field trip ninyo sa Mall Of Asia, malayo ba yun? Bakit ang mahal?

Isasanla pa namin yung palayan natin para mabili mo yung instrumento mong i-pod.

Napailaw ninyo na ba yung pinagpupuyatan ninyong San Mig Lights?

Sana gumaraduate ka na...



ITAY

(Thanks Anne for this wonderful and meaningful forwarded SMS message)

****The Sunday Gospel came from the book of John -

John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.


At that moment, my phone received a text message from Anne, and of course I didnt pay attention cos I was hopelessly helping myself to concentrate, and trying so hard to focus my reflection on that Sunday evening's Gospel. And it worked!

******Monday Gospel
Luke 24:13-35 - ON THE ROAD TO EMMAUS

25And he said to them, "O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! 26(AE) Was it not necessary that(AF) the Christ should suffer these things and enter into(AG) his glory?" 27And(AH) beginning with(AI) Moses and(AJ) all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.


We were grouped into triads to discuss this scripture last night. I was so into it that I even read Anne's text message to my groupmates. It was not an ordinary SMS. Its relevance to the said scripture was powerful and meaningful, for it was clearly citing a realistic example of How people tend to Recognize God's work and love for all mankind.


Nakakahiya no? We acknowledge God when we're down, when we feel that there is a need to question God about the burdens we are carrying.
Bad trip no?Cos not all of us do not fully understand the essence of Christ's sufferings, His death and resurreccion.
Kirara ka! If you wont read this and reflect on this. Learn to ask yourself , and share your most sensible opinion about this.

4 kinds of W stuff

The Power of Easter helps us to fight these 4 kinds of W stuff namely:
1. Worries (worry-ness )
2. Weaknesses
3. Weariness
4. Woundedness

and oh, this sharing makes sense....just forgot the complete explanation from our prayer meeting last Monday. next time.

Something light and funny :)

The quote was:" Kung may aaway, mananakit, aapi or magpapaiyak sayo....


BULLET OF THE SUN

I WILL GIANT YOU!!!!"


in tagalog..

"Balang Araw,ipaghiHIGANTE kita!"

illegitimate

When i was young,

  • I used to think that being called as "adopted" was just a welcoming fad in our little neighborhood. I didn't believe the hear-and-says talks, who cares anyway, I was too confident that time. Cos till now I only have one answer, "No,just a menopausal baby! " My brother was 17, and my mom was 47, when the world welcomed me as a baby.

  • I used to mind keeping albums - pictures of moi and my so-called family. and I got tired of searching for my infant pictures, cos I didn't find any. Neither thought of asking my mom, my pops, "Where did you keep my baby pictures?"
  • I used to tear my pictures with my sister whenever we had our sibling fights, and I had a song for her that time, "I hate my sister, she's such a bitch, she acts as if she doesn't even know that i exist. but i would do anything, to let her know i care..." I tried to reach out, oh well, I guess we are better today than yesterday.
  • I used to hear our neighbors, even my mom's tenants, telling their own versions of how I came out - my real roots. My initial reaction was to run, away from their gossiping mouths! How could they...such a shame...till it became an undying whenever I hang out with my childhood friends.
  • I used to accept it, maybe it's true...maybe not. Til somebody took the courage to reveal the truth.i heard a lot of versions, and finally the truth, and i need a solid evidence.

Breast cyst aspiration

Do I need to see my doctor again after I have breast cyst aspiration?

Yes. If the lump in your breast is a cyst and the cyst is drained successfully, your doctor will want to check the area in 4 to 6 weeks to make sure that the cyst has not filled up with fluid again. This follow-up visit is important. A cyst that refills with fluid can be a problem. If you have a cyst that refills at any time, call your doctor.

Me makatwiran akong sagot sa tanong na ito

Pupunta ka sa isang 20-storey building.
Bawat palapag (floor) ay may guard.
Bawat guard ay kailangan mong magbayad ng kalahati (50%) ng perang iyong dala
At susuklian ka ng guard ng Piso.

TANONG:

magkano ang minimum na perang iyong kailangang dalhin
upang matapos mong marating ang 20-storey building, ay meron ka pang sukling 2 piso?

;D

si Feb

Ang kaarawan ko ay nalalapit na, ito kaya ay iyo pang maalala?
Maaaring hindi na,
pagka't andyan na si Feb.
Kapag ako kaya ay nawalan ng malay at nalaman mo, kakabahan ka pa kaya?
Maaaring hindi na,
pagka't andyan na si Feb.
Sa gimikan ang alak at sigarilyo ay nagbabadyang maging bisyo ko, paaalalahanan mo pa kaya ako?
Maaaring hindi na,
pagka't andyan na si Feb.
Sa umaga at gabing pagtatapos ng trabaho, itatanong mo pa ba kung ako ay nakarating na sa opisina o nakauwi na?
Maaaring hindi na,
pagka't andyan na si Feb.
Mahal pa kita, mahal na mahal mo ako...dati iyon, ngayon kaya?
Maaaring hindi na,
pagka't andyan na si Feb.

Si Feb si Feb si Feb si Feb.
dati ako ang ka-anibersaryo mo pag Feb, ngayo'y hindi na.
pagka't sinayang ko ang halaga nun,
ako ay napalitan ng panghabang buhay mo na atang ka-Feb.

Hawak Kamayan

Basta't lagi ko kayong kasama,
kampante ako na ako'y laging kumpleto
Hindi ko kayang mawala ang isa man sa inyo ni mabawasan ang kabuuan ninyo
Sabihin na ng iba, na ginagamit ko lang kayo
Alam nio sa mga sarili ninyong hindi iyon totoo
Sapagkat tuwing nakikita ko ang pagod nio sinusuklian ko agad iyon ng pag-aalala at hagod sa pag-aalaga
Minsan nga lang sa pg sumusobra, muntik ng bumigay ang isa sa inyo
Ngunit kaagad kong inagapan naman upang ang lahat ay bumalik sa normal.

Hindi ko kayo ipagpapalit kahit kanino, ang mga nagagawa nio ay pawang gawang-henyo ngunit pang-tao
Ang hirap at tulong nio...

sa pag-abot ng mga pangarap ko
sa pagdasal sa mga panalangin ko
sa pagsasagawa ng mga gusto ko
sa pagkupkop sa mga layunin ko

Ang lahat ng ito (iilan lang sa hindi matatapos na naisasabuhay nio),
Ay walang katumbas, sapagkat iilan lang kayong sinangkap ng Diyos upang ako (at ang iba pa) ay mabuo.
Kaya't, alam nio, alam ko, at ng lahat, hindi matatapos ang pasasalamat ko sa inyo.

Mahal ko kayo.
