Ang Buhay na Hindi BitinHalimbawa

God's Purpose For You God made you for a reason. Hindi ka aksidente. No matter what you are now or what has happened to you in the past, He has a plan and a purpose for you. God loves you and He wants you to live a fulfilling, joyful, and content life despite the problems that you have. In the midst of trials and difficulties He wants you to be worry free kahit may problema! Sabi ni Jesus, “My purpose is to give life in all its fullness.” Paano naman ’yun? Rejoice in the Lord at all times, the Bible says, and “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. If you do this, you will experience God’s peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.” The Bible says there is no use worrying. Kaya huwag ka nang mag-alala. “Sino sa inyo ang makapagpapahaba ng kanyang buhay nang kahit isang oras sa pamamagitan ng kanyang pagkabalisa?” Pero’yun nga, easier said than done, di ba? How do you live a worry-free and content life day in and day out? Marami akong kilala, even when they have everything they need materially—a condo or house and lot in an exclusive subdivision, expensive clothes, new cellphone, fancy car, a high-paying job, vacations abroad, a healthy and beautiful family—parang hindi pa rin sila kuntento. May kulang pa. Sabi nga sa akin ng isang top manager who got promoted and who has all of the above material benefits, “Bakit ganito, parang bitin pa rin?” Pati si Jim Carrey, the famous American actor and comedian who makes about $8 million per movie, says: “I think everybody should get rich and famous and do everything they’ve ever dreamed of so they can see that it's not the answer.” Carrey said that in an interview with Reader’s Digest in 2006. Basically, he’s saying that even if you become rich and famous, hindi ’yun ang sagot sa kakulangan mo sa buhay. Maybe, like Jim Carrey, you’ve tried finding the answer in your work, your spouse, your family, your hobbies, sport, achievements, etc. But at the end of the day, you realize…NO DEAL. Bitin pa rin!
