Psalm 34:18

The LORD is there to rescue all who are discouraged and have given up hope.

When alone and lonely, think that you are not alone being alone. Dapat nating maalala na hindi tayo nag-iisa sa ating pag-iisa dahil maraming tao ang nag-iisa rin.

Jesus was alone in the very important moments of his life and ministry. As the God-man, nag-iisa siya sa ganoong distinction. Dios na, tao pa, kaya kaisa-isa. He alone is the Mediator and Savior. Sa Gethsemane, mag-isa rin siya. In his trial and conviction, he was alone. He was alone on the cross. Alam na alam nya ang ibig sabihin ng mapag-isa. At kung alam nya yun, puedeng-puede nya tayong tulungan.

Pag pinag-aralan natin ang Biblia, napakaraming dakilang babae at lalaki ang madalas nag-iisa sa kanilang paninindigan at kalagayan, maging sa kanilang pagiging maka-Dios. Many people up to now are isolated emotionally, socially, and physically. Napakaraming mag-asawa ang magkahiwalay dahil sa phenomenon ng pagtatrabaho sa iba’t-ibang malalayong lugar. Napakaraming uri ng pag-iisa at kalungkutan ang hinaharap ng marami. And we have a positional, even a spiritual fellowship, with others who are also alone. Yun pa lang siguro dapat na nating kuhanan ng lakas yun na hindi ka nag-iisa sa pagiging isa o sa iyong pag-iisa.

Dahil dinanas din ng Panginoon ang ating mga dinaranas, lubos nya tayong matutulungan. The Lord experienced what we experience, so he is now able to give us great help. At maaari nating i-apply yan sa aloneness, because he himself experienced being alone, then he is able to help those who experience being alone.

UMAMIN NA

Romans 7:18-19

I know that my selfish desires won’t let me do anything that is good. Even when I want to do right, I cannot. Instead of doing what I know is right, I do wrong.

Kapag inaamin natin ang ating mga kahinaan, parang sugat ito na tinatanggalan ng langib para malinis, malanggas, at magamot. Hindi puedeng takpan ang sugat at asahang gagaling ito. Hindi puedeng takpan ang mga kamalian na hindi naitutuwid dahil ito’y hindi na maitutuwid pa kailanman.

Admission could also win sympathy, if not understanding or even support. Kung marami kayong mga katangian; halimbawa, ang talino, yaman, ganda, o napakatagumpay nyo, maraming maiinggit sa inyo. Dun sa mga potensyal na maiinggit, makabubuting umamin kayo ng ilang kapintasan. “Ang dami-dami ko ngang pera pero hindi kami nagkakasundo ng asawa ko.” Yung totoo lang. Pag nakita nung mga kandidatong maiinggit sa inyo na mayroon din kayong mga kulang at kapintasan, mababawasan yung inggit nila at baka maging supportive pa sila sa inyo.

Maling-mali yung mga tao na nagke-create ng superman/superwoman image. Yung “I can handle everything.” “Ang talino ko…” “Ang galing ko..” “Efficient ako.” Actually wala namang matutuwa sa inyo e kung hindi amo nyo kung pinapakinabangan kayo dahil ang galing-galing nyo’t ang husay-husay nyo. Pero yung mga karaniwang tao, kaibigan at kapwa manggagawa, maiinis pa nga sila sa inyo e. So, hayaan nyo nang makita nila yung mga pingas ng inyong pagkatao. Hindi na sila maiinggit sa inyo. And when you show a little bit of your weakness, when you admit little bits of your imperfections, people tend to be kinder to you.

Psalm 103:13-14

The LORD is kind to all who worship him, because he knows we are made of dust.

Tayo ay mga alikabok. Ibig sabihin, hindi perfect. Kahit ikaw ay mag-aasawa, tatandaan mo na ang pakakasalan mo at ang tinatanggap mong mapapangasawa ay alikabok. Yung nanay mo ay alikabok. Yung asawa ng kapatid mo ay alikabok. Yun pa lang ang huwag mong lilimutin, mababawasan na ang frustration mo pag nabibigo ka na sa kanila. Nagkakamali sila o kaya ay nagmumula sa kanila ang mga problema natin. Mas mataas ang kinalalagyan nung expectation natin, mas masakit ang pagbagsak pagka tayo ay nabigo. In our human relationships, we hope for the best but we prepare ourselves for the worst.

Pagka tayo ay pinagtaksilan ng ating girlfriend, boyfriend, wife, husband, business partner o kaibigan, talagang malulungkot tayo. Sino bang tao ang sumasaya kapag siya’y pinagtaksilan ng pinagkakatiwalaan? At tandaan natin, ang mga taong pinagkakatiwalaan lang natin ang puedeng magtaksil sa atin.

Pero pagka mahal natin ang isang tao, we should learn to accept that human being lang siya. Dahil tao nga siya, magkakasala yan, magkakamali at magkukulang. Magkakaroon ka ng frustration. Bago pa man dumating yun, decide to accept the humanness of your friend, your relative and your loved ones.

KUNG NASA IYO ANG KAPANGYARIHAN

Proverbs 22:22

Don’t take advantage of the poor or cheat them in court.

God is on the side of the weak. Kaya isang malaking no-no ang mang-api ng kawawa, mahina, mahirap, maysakit, matanda, o bata. Kung ano ang ginagawa natin para sa mga walang kalaban-laban, inaari ng Dios na ginagawa natin sa Kanya. Kapag ginagawan natin ng mabuti ang mga ito, ang Dios na ang magsusukli. Kung ginagawan natin sila ng masama, ang Dios ang maniningil. God’s justice is always at work, nararamdaman man natin o hindi, kaya huwag nating i-provoke ang galit ng Dios.

Ang kapangyarihan ay ipinahihiram ng Dios sa atin para kupkupin natin ang mga kawawa at mahihina. Hindi yung pinagsasamantalahan ang kanilang kamangmangan kahit sa mga korte. Hindi nabibigyan ng katarungan ang kanilang mga sumbong. Hindi tayo binibigyan ng kapangyarihan para lang palakasin natin at pasarapin ang ating buhay. May kakambal na responsibilidad ang kapangyarihang ipinahihiram sa atin. Pag naging supervisor, manager, executive, o kaya ay may-ari tayo ng isang kumpanya, mayroon tayong pananagutan sa maliliit na nasa ilalim ng kapangyarihan natin at mayroon tayong pananagutan sa Dios. We do not take advantage of the weak.

Hindi lamang ang mga mahihirap ang itinuturing na mahina. Maging ang mga taong nagmamahal sa atin ay hindi dapat pinagsasamantalahan. Lalo na’t alam na alam nating mahal na mahal tayo. Maraming nagmamahal ang inaabuso. Mga asawa, boyfriend, girlfriend, kaibigan na nilalaro lang ang damdamin. Kahit patalunin sa building, tatalon. Bakit pagsasamantalahan at kakawawain yung nagmamahal sa atin? Hindi ba dapat na sila’y ginagantimpalaan? Hindi ba dapat na sila’y sinusuklian ng kapwa pagmamahal?

Proverbs 18:2

Fools have no desire to learn; they would much rather give their own opinions

         Do not always outtalk and outsmart people. Nobody will like you. In other words, do not be tactless and rude. Pagka hindi hinihingi ang iyong opinion, huwag mong laging ibigay. Hintayin mong hingin. O kung gusto mong i-volunteer, make sure it is well-timed and the words are well-chosen. Avoid preempting people. Maraming tao gustong gumawa ng mabuti pero dahil pinangunahan sila, hindi na lang ginawa yung dapat gawin. So huwag tayong mangunguna.

    It will keep you from so much trouble if you only know how to hold your tongue. Matutong magtimpi. And then give people their five-second fame. May nagpapasikat,

    “May bahay ako sa Camella Homes.”

    “Aba, ang bahay ko sa BF Executives.

Tinabunan mo na siya. Hayaan mo siya, it’s her moment. Maghanap ka ng ibang moment mo, but let people shine if they want to.

    Do not embarrass people by constantly correcting them in public. Maraming ganyan, lalo sa mag-asawa. Halimbawa, nag-Ingles si lalaki, sasabihin naman ng asawa nya, “Daddy, wrong grammar. Sabihin mo ganito, ganyan.” Akala nyo bang humanga ang mga nakinig? Hindi. Sasabihin nila, “Yang babaeng yan, mahirap kasama. Hinihiya nya ang asawa sa harap ng iba.” Walang matutuwa sa iyo lalo na yung asawa mo. Pag-uwi mo, may sapak ka. Baka nga hindi makapagtimpi, sa likod ng palmera ka nya sapakin dahil pinapahiya mo siya.

    Correction is good but it should not be done in public whenever it could wait. Masarap at tama na mag-correct sa tamang lugar. Spare the dignity of the person that you like to correct.
