2 Kings 16:2 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. Unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord his God.

Last night, before I slept, i asked my momie Joy to read that verse to me. After a minute or so of mieditating upon that verse, I realized something…

I knew many things, but I know I had lots of support and help from our Father God. However, my life as I reflect on it, is like Ahaz. Sure, bata pa ko and baka meron ako na mga bagay na wala ang iba, pero lumalakad ba ko sa tamang direksyon? Kagabi ko pa iniisip and you know what, my heart cried because of the thought that I let my Father down. 

Madami akong kalokohan, kalokohan at kalokohan sa buhay. Minsan nga wala na kong pakialam kung may masaktan na ibang tao basta lang masunod ung gusto kong mangyari. Nahiya lng ako bigla nung mabasa ko ung verse, kasi we should really be like David. David is not perfect, pero he walked according to the Lord’s word. 

We are young. We are strong. We are skilled. Pero hindi dyn nagtatapos un. Madami ka pang pwedeng maachieve at mapupuntahan basta ba lalakad ka ng tuwid at hindi parang lasheng. Hindi rin mawawala sayo lahat ng binigay sayo kung matututo kang sumunod at magpahalaga sa mga to.

Are we like Ahaz? Ask yourself..
