Mark 15:40-42

Some women were looking on from a distance. They had come with Jesus to Jerusalem. But even before this, they had been his followers and had helped him while he was in Galilee. Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of the younger James and Joseph were two of these women. Salome was also one of them.

Jesus fellowshiped and sided with women. Noong nagsabi si Martha kay Jesus na tulungan siya ni Mary sa kusina, hindi talaga malaking issue ang hindi pagtulong ni Mary kundi yung nakaupo siya na kababaeng tao sa paanan ni Hesus at nakikinig sa mga pagtuturo na tila tine-train siyang maging alagad. Martha politely reminded Jesus of where Mary should be. “Hindi nyo ba papatulungin ang kapatid kong babae na yan sa kusina?” But the Lord said, “She has chosen the better portion”– to sit at his feet and learn like a man. Noong araw, lalaki lang ang mga tagasunod ng sinumang religious leader o itinerant preacher. But this time, the Lord was opening the door to women. He was saying, “Women are welcome to fellowship with us, to learn with us, and, if they like, to be trained.”

Many women were in Jesus’ entourage. At sinabi dito, inaalagaan nila ang mga pangangailangan ng Panginoon at ng mga disciples habang may healing, teaching and preaching sila. Kaya noong napako ang Panginoong Hesus sa Jerusalem, ang naiwan sa bundok ng Kalbaryo ay mga kababaihang sumunud-sunod sa kanya. Ipinakita ng Panginoon na women were welcome in the company of men, especially in ministry. We must value women who do the work of the Lord.

Psalm 105:2

Sing praises to the LORD! Tell about his miracles.

Optimistic Christians talk about God’s goodness, graciousness and greatness. Kung mayroon daw ilalabas ang ating bibig, yun ay mga pag-awit at papuri sa Panginoon. Ikwento ang mga kabutihan ng Panginoon. People who often talk of negative things discourage themselves, disappoint others, and displease God. Ang hirap naman na tuwing lalapit ka sa iba, sasabihin sa iyo, “Eto ka na naman. Huwag mong sirain ang araw ko, ha? Tuwing leap year ka na lang kaya pupunta sa akin.”

Ayaw ng Dios ng mga negative things coming out of our mouth. In the correct forum, yes. Kung mayroong discussion at analysis, why not? Para ma-improve ang situation.

Happiness is the primary duty of life. Hindi naman tayo nilikha ng Dios para maging malungkot. Kaya ipinaglalaban natin na maging masaya. Don’t permit people to take happiness away from you. Don’t cling to people. Your sadness begins when you love people too much. Kaya nga dapat inuuna ang Dios. At marami tayong magagandang bagay na masasabi at maipamamalita tungkol sa Dios. Kapag inilista lang natin ang mga ipagpapasalamat sa kanya, hindi na tayo mauubusan ng kwento. Ito yung mga kwento na hindi kapapagurang pakinggan at hindi kaiinisan ng mga nakikinig. Kaya kailangan yung center ng pagmamahal natin ay ang Dios. Ang buhay natin dapat ay umiikot sa Dios.

LAGI KANG LOVE

Romans 8:38-39

I am sure that nothing can separate us from God’s love—not life or death, not angels or spirits, not the present or the future, and not powers above or powers below. Nothing in all creation can separate us from God’s love for us in Christ Jesus our Lord!

Walang anumang kapangyarihan–liwanag o dilim, taas o baba, lapad o kitid–ang puedeng maghiwalay sa atin sa Dios sa pamamagitan ni Hesus. Pagka nagkakamali tayo o pakiramdam natin galit sa atin ang Dios–siempre hindi natutuwa ang Dios kung nagkakamali tayo–alalahanin natin itong Romans 8. Mahal pa rin tayo ng Dios.

Kahit hindi natutuwa ang magulang na napapahamak o may ginagawang hindi maganda ang anak, mahal pa rin nila. Kaya parang mali pagka conditional na yung love ng magulang. “Hindi na kita mahal kasi pitong taon ka na sa high school.” Kahit ba labinlimang taon, mahal mo pa rin yan dahil anak mo. Sa iyo naka-assign yan para ikaw ang magmahal. Sino ang gusto mong magmahal sa kanya, ang principal? Hindi ito pangungunsinti pero dapat walang patakarang pagmamahal yung pamilya.

At kahit pa nga ang love ng human parents ang pinakamalapit na sa godly love, nagkukulang pa rin kung minsan. Pero ang Dios hindi. Kahit gaano ka ka-bigo, gaano pa kasama ang nagawa mo, gaano karumi ang nahulugan mong kanal, mahal ka pa rin ng Dios. Nothing can separate you from the love of God.

And that same love is the love that we should give to one another. Hindi tayo judges ng isa’t-isa, we are extensions of God’s love. Kailangan maging mas maibigin tayo sa ating kapwa.

HE LOVES TO BE LOVED

Deuteronomy 6:5

So, love the LORD your God with all your heart, soul and strength.

How can you love somebody who is not physically capable of receiving love? But God is capable. God loves to love. He not only loves, but loves to love. In fact, he never stops loving. And he not only loves to love, but also loves to be loved. Maraming mga religious deities ng iba’t-ibang pananampalataya, pero ang kanilang mga dios ay hindi mga loving gods. Laging mga galit, kaya laging binibigyan ng mga offering. You always make sacrifices dahil kailangang laging ma-please.

The Lord loves to be loved. And it takes a very strong person to admit that he needs love. Maraming tao ang nagtitigas-tigasan ng kanilang loob, hindi nila ipinadarama, hindi nila ipinahahalata na gusto nila na sila’y minamahal din, na gusto nilang sila’y pinapansin at binibigyan ng atensyon. But the Lord loves to be loved. That’s all the more reason to love God dahil hindi nasasayang ang pag-ibig natin sa kanya.

Mayroong mga tao na habang iniibig mo, lalo nagpapakipot, lalong nagpapahabol. Habang minamahal mo, lalong nagmamataas. Habang binibigyan mo ng pagmamahal, inaabuso ka dahil nalalaman nyang mahal na mahal mo pala siya. Habang minamahal mo, ikaw ang sinasaktan at pinahihirapan.

But it is so wonderful to love God because the Lord loves to be loved. Siya yung kapag pinatuunan natin ng pagmamahal, hindi tayo lugi.

Deuteronomy 4:31

The LORD your God will have mercy—he won’t destroy you or desert you…

Ganito ang pagiging makatarungan. Paparusahan ang mali, pe-premyuhan ang tama. Ang mercy naman, kahit mali ka na, kinukupkop ka pa kasi habag ang umaandar at hindi katarungan. Ang Dios ay parehong mahabagin at makatarungan. Of course, kung ano ang gagamitin nya sa atin, hindi natin alam. Kaya huwag tayong maging mangahas na humingi ng justice. “Lord, where is your justice? Nasaan ang iyong katarungan?” Huwag tayong humingi dahil baka maging makatarungan nga siya sa atin at ibigay pa sa atin ang kaparusahan.

Salamat na lang at ang Dios ay hindi laging makatarungan, dahil mas madalas siya ay mahabagin. Kasi, kung katarungan ang paaandarin nya, lahat tayo ay mapaparusahan dahil lahat tayo ay nagkakamali. Sasabihin mo, “Bakit yung taong yun laging mali pero hindi pa siya tinatamaan ng kidlat?” Huwag nyong hilingin yun dahil yung kidlat na tatama sa kanya, tatama rin sa atin kung ang papaandarin ng Dios ay katarungan lamang. Kung gusto natin na ang Dios ay maging mapagbigay sa atin, maging mapagbigay din tayo sa kapwa. Kung paano natin sinusukat ang kapwa, ganun din tayo susukatin ng Dios.

Lahat tayo ay maraming nagagawang pagkakamali. Ano ang dapat sinasabi ng mga anak ng Dios? Hindi “Sayang” kundi “Next time.” Kapag tayo’y nagkakamali, sabihin natin, “Di bale, next time.” Hindi naman yung “Next time, lagot ka.” Dapat next time, pagbubutihan na natin. Palaging may next time. Habang may buhay, may next time. Kaya palaging buhay ang pag-asa. Yan ang masarap sa mga nabubuhay sa lilim ng pag-ibig at habag ng Dios.

Psalm 23:6

Your kindness and love will always be with me each day of my life, and I will live forever in your house, LORD.

It is the Lord who is our safety, protector, shelter, and sustenance. The passing of people we have learned to lean and focus on should make us renew, re-strengthen and re-beautify our very personal relationship with God. Sa kanya’t sa kanya tayo babalik. Kaya ang relasyon natin sa Dios kailanman ay hindi isinasakripisyo alang-alang sa pakikitungo lang at pakikisama sa kapwa tao. Because when all the chips are down and the day is gone, it’s really you and God.

Sino ba ang kasama natin noong tayo ay nabubuo sa sinapupunan ng ating ina? E di ang Dios. Nagmula sa Dios, bumalik sa Dios. Wala naman talagang dapat ikalungkot tungkol doon. Ang ikinalulungkot lang natin ay ang pansamantalang paghihiwalay at ang lungkot ng nakasanayan nating kasama siya. Subalit dapat maluwag na maluwag ang loob nating ibibigay sa Dios ang sa kanya naman talaga. At sa kanya naman talaga nagmula ang mahal natin sa buhay.

The Lord is our shepherd. We will not only survive. We will also prevail because we can be strong and victorious and be filled with all good things. Rest assured that even the dead remain our fellow sheep under the care of our loving Shepherd. Sa katunayan, mayroon nang pag-ibig ang Dios na yun lamang sumasakabilang buhay ang nakakaranas. Isa yang pag-asa nating pinaghahawakan at pinananaligan nang walang anumang pagdududa. At tayo’y nananalig na yung pag-ibig ng Dios ang laging mangunguna sa ating puso.
