Many people, when they forgive and forgive and forgive, people tend to call them “stupid” or “uto-uto”(Filipino term for gullible or easyly deceived). Everyday, kapag niloko ka ng friend mo, at pinatawad mo, at inulit ulit nya padin, uto uto kna. Kapag pinagbigyan mo ung taong mahal mo para magbago, pero nakagawa na ng pagkadami daming kasalanan and you still forgive, “stupid” kna daw. Pero anu ba talaga ung dapat nating gawin kapag may nakagawa satin ng kasalanan?
Before I go on, I would like to tell you about us. Me and my girl had a very very HUGE argument before. Kung magbabasa kau ng previous articles ko, malalaman nyo ung story. We made out of the needle hole kasi we forgave each other. Pero kahit nalagpasan namin un, we STILL argue almost all the time. KAhit simula pa noon, nagaaway kame. PERO hindi un tumatagal ng isang araw kasi nag rereconcile din kame afterwards. Kasi we asked for forgiveness, both of us. And we love each other, kaya naaaus agad.
Bottomline, we argue, we learn our mistakes, we ask for forgivess, and we reconcile. Simple diba? That is how life should be sa lahat ng tao. Pero alam nyo ba na UTOS din yan ng bible?
Sabi sa Luke 17:3-4,“If your brother or sister sins against you, rebuke them; and if they repent, forgive them. Even if they sin against you seven times in a day and seven times come back to you saying ‘I repent,’ you must forgive them.”
This tells us na WE SHOULD FORGIVE EVERYTIME THEY ASK FOR FORGIVENESS. Kasi alam nyo ba na if we let it reside in our heart for a longer period of time, lalong mag mamark to sa heart natin and it will be HARDER to forgive.
Alam nyu ba na may epekto yan sa life natin na NEGATIVE? This are:
1. Rock-solid-heart
2. One direction
3. Closed eyes
4. Knowledge
RockSolid Heart. Wow and haba. If we dont reconcile or if we dont forgive, we will have this kind of heart. ROCK. Bato na. Kasi sabi ko nga, everyday it will be a lot harder if you try to forgive kasi nakatatak na sa mind mo ung consequences, ung effects dati sau, and ung hirap and pain na mararamdaman mo. Pero if we are Christians, we should look at the other perspective. WHAT WOULD THE OTHER PARTY FEEL IF YOU DONT ACCEPT THEIR APOLOGY? Syempre, in turn, magkakaron din sila ng RockSolid Hearts and matatakot na sila humingi ng sorry.
One Direction. If we look at it, people that are afflicted by pain from somebody will have their eyes trun on REVENGE. I know, hindi po ganito lahat ng tao, pero IF palagi taung nagtatanim, wala na tau makikitang direksyon kundi GUMANTI. Tama ba ko? So change it!! We dont want that, right?
Closed Eyes. if they have rock hearts, they cant eat spirit-food easily, which is the Gospel. Right? Iwasan natin to, ayaw natin maging ganito.!!
Knowledge. Oo, totoo. Magkakaron ka ng ubud ng daming talino. ALam mo kung bakit? KAsi maiisip mo bawat angulo ng nangyari sau, at sainyo. PERO NEGATIVELY. Lahat ng negative side makikita mo, as in lahat. Aabot sa point na maguguluhan kana and maffrustrate kna. Kaya IWASAN NATIN TO!!! Maganda makakuha ng knowledge pero ung POSITIVE knowledge, and mas maganda kung galing sa Salita NYA. ^^<.>
ROCK Heart, and ROCK soul. Ganyan po ang future natin if we refrain from forgiving people from what they do or what they will do to us. Let us look at the other side. LET US LOOK ON HOW WE COULD CHANGE THEM in a good way. Ok? ^^,.
So, if may nagsory sau, anu gagawin mo?
a) Tatadjakan sa muka at babatuhin ng arm-chair?
b) Papa tampo effect at may tuturuan-kita-ng-leksyon-emote?
c) Papatawarin and kahit gawin nya uli, patatawarin ulit?
So finally!! ARE WE UTO-UTO? ^^,. You decide.
