Yesterdays mass was really an eye opener for me. The Gospel message was all about repentance. Yes. REPENTANCE. John the Baptist has encourage people on his day to repent because the coming of the Lord is near. Yes...and the truth is...check and balance ulet si kangel...i have merely forgotten the the true meaning of the word...yung bigat nya...kung gaano sya kahirap gawin kapag hindi mo hiningi ang tulong ni God. The call for us to repent because Jesus is coming...The true message of Christmas.
So ano ba talaga ang Pasko?
Sa totoo lang...I am so preoccupied with the things to prepare, things to give, and all the responsibilities sa pamilya ko...sa mga kamag-anak ko na posible din humingi ng pamasko..(which is ok lang naman po sa akin..hehe..kahit masakit talaga sa bulsa...nakakataba naman ng puso), sa mga pagkain na dapat bilhin, paano kung magshort kami...paano na? ano na ang mangyayari? But the gospel reminds me of the true reason why are we celebrating Christmas... it is for Him..it is for His birthday...We want to celebrate for his birthday. It is for Jesus.
Nakakaloka man....honestly dahil sa mga pagwo-worry kong ito, hindi ko maramdaman ang Pasko. Yeah parating na sya...I am seeing decorations...and hearing Christmas songs...pero...yun nga.pagkatapos nun...Balik sa worrying...
Naisip ko tuloy na dapat tigilan ko na talaga ito. And I should prepare myself...sa kung ano yung pwede kung ibigay na gift kay Lord. Yung matutuwa sya. HIndi ko pa nga rin alam kung ano...dahil hindi naman material things ang gusto nya. Tingin ko something that I should sacrifice. Alisin ko na siguro yung pagwo-worry and just be happy and enjoy the days dahil malapit na syang dumating... Yeah. I should remember dahil...sa pagdating nya...nabago ang history. Nabago ang lahat. He was born to be our savior. At yun yung dapat na hindi ko kalimutan. And he have loved us so much to be one of us. Andun na sya eh heaven...Ok na...Pero he came to us...to reach us, to know us. Ganun nya tayo ka-love.
Now...what is Christmas really? Christmas is Jesus Birthday. An extraordinary birthday of all times. The world celebrates it. It is for everyone. The time where a lot of us gives ourselves to others just like Jesus. Just like the baby who was born in Betlehem. He came with nothing but the day is just the best day that happen on earth...
It is the day pala na matagal ko ng hinihintay (ulet). I promise na masaya kong isi-celebrate ang season na ito...with my family and with my friends... with LOVE :)

anywayz, im actually on that part "SACRIFICE" on the book I am reading and its really really hard promise.. i worry on a lot of things, you know that.. on how to please Him but then maybe the sacrifices that I ought to share is something I could offer on this lifetime. I always think kasi kung anu-ano yun at kung kaya ko na bang ibigay, but then I cannot :( pero in due time siguro. now, im trying it little by little.. :)
God Bless! Be merry..
Merry Xmas!
