Isn’t it Strange?

“Isn’t it Strange?”

Isn’t it strange how a 100php bill seems like such a large amount when you donate it to church, but such a small amount when you go shopping?

Isn’t it strange how 2 hours seem so long when you’re at church, and how short they seem when you’re watching a good movie?

Isn’t it strange how everyone wants front-row-tickets to concerts or games, but they do whatever is possible to sit at the last row in Church?

Isn’t it strange that you can’t find a word to say when you’re praying, but you have no trouble thinking what to talk about with a friend?

Isn’t it strange how difficult and boring it is to read one chapter of the Bible, but how easy it is to read 100 pages of a popular novel or book?

Isn’t it strange how we concentrate in watching our favorite movies or shows that we don’t want to be disturbed, but we can’t stop talking about any other things with our seat mates during a mass?

Isn’t it strange how we need to know about an event for Church 2-3 weeks before the day so we can include it in our agenda, but we can adjust it for other events at the last minute?

Isn’t it strange how we believe everything that magazines, newspapers, and the internet say, but we question the words in the Bible?

Isn’t it strange how difficult it is to learn a fact about God to share it with others, but how easy it is to learn, understand, extend and repeat gossip?

Isn’t it strange how everyone wants a place in heaven, but they don’t want to believe, do, or say anything to get there?

Isn’t it strange how we send jokes in e-mails and they are forwarded right away, but when we are going to send messages about God, we think about it twice before we share it with others?

Liham mula sa ISANG NAPAKABUTING KAIBIGAN

Kung mayroong letter from the devil, narito naman ang letter mula sa Isang napakabuting kaibigan. Bestfriend. Pwede Siyang kahit ano. Bestfriend, teacher, magulang at kahit superhero pa. Lagi siyang nandiyan kahit anong mangyari. Sabi nga ng guro namin, para siyang ‘bus stop’ na hinihintay niya lang tayo sa biyahe na magdadala sa atin sa magandang destinasyon, na kahit anong sagabal at pagsubok pa ang dumaan, nandiyan siya at hindi tayo iiwan. Eto at basahin niyo ang sulat niya sa akin na natanggap ko noong nagkaroon kami ng RECOLLECTION sa Naic, Cavite. Enjoy.

Dear Friend

Hi, kamusta ka na? How was your life. I’m sure you’re quite excited because I’ve heard you’re having a recollection. I don’t want to mess up with your busy schedule kaya sumulat na lang ako para at least masabi ko sa’yo ang mga bagay na ito.

Namimiss na kasi kita, bihira na tayong magka-usap, mas marami na kasi ang mga activitites mo ngayon, mas mahihirap ang mga bagay na gusto mong magawa. Minsan gusto kong makausap ka pero hindi mo ako napapansin, pero naiintindihan kita kasi mas marami kayong pinagkakaabalahan ng mga kaibigan mo. Minsan nga akala ko kakausapin mo na ako isang umaga nang magising ka. Kaya lang nag-check ka agad ng cellphone mo at nakita kong napangiti ka kasi ang daming bumati sa’yo ng good morning. Akala ko nga babatiin mo rin ako eh, pero bumangon ka na at naghanda papunta sa school. Nung nasa school ka na, sinundan kita, nakita kong pagod na pagod ka, siguro ang daming pinagawa ng teacher niyo sa inyo. Siyempre, kaibigan kita, gusto kong tulungan ka kaya lang hindi mo na naman ako napansin. Tapos nakita kita isang hapon, umiiyak ka, malungkot ka at mukhang mabigat ang iniisip mo. Nahihirapan akong makita kang ganyan kasi ayaw kong nalulungkot ka. Ayaw kong nasasaktan ka. Kaya lang hindi mo ako napansin. Minsan naman napadaan ka sa bahay ko. Tuwang-tuwa ako nun kasi makikita na kita at last. Sabi ko nga sa sarili ko “Aba, dadalawin na ako ng pinakamamahal kong kaibigan.” Antay ako ng antay kung kailan ka papasok kasi sasalubungin kita, pero hindi ka dumating. Sabi ko tuloy siguro marami siyang gagawin kaya dumaan na lang at hindi na pumasok. Pinuntahan kita sa inyo at nakita kong malapit ka nang magpahinga, pagod na pagod ka at mukhang hindi mo na kayang idilat ang mata mo. Sabi ko, “Siguro hindi niya ako mapapansin ngayon…”. Pero hindi kita matitiis kaya hihintayin kita.

Ganyan kita kamahal, hindi kita pwedeng pabayaan kasi bestfriend kita, at MAHAL NA MAHAL KITA at iintindihin kita. Buti na lang nandito ka ngayon kasi akala ko hindi mo na talaga ako mapapansin, akala ko hindi na ako mahalaga para sa’yo. Sana kausapin mo ako, sana pansinin mo ako… NANDITO LANG AKO, NAGHIHINTAY AT NAGMAMAHAL SA’YO.. Ingat ka lagi ha.. kita na lang tayo, hihintayin kita sa darating na linggo. Salamat pinakamamahal kong kaibigan.

Nagmamahal
J.C.

Hmm.. napansin ko na mas para sa mga kabataan ‘tong sulat na ito. Sana nag-enjoy kayo at nakuha ang mensahe ng sulat mula sa pinakamamahal kong kaibigan. Alam kong kilala mo na Siya. Initials lang kasi ang nilagay Niya sa sulat. Siya nga pala si JESUS CHRIST.

A letter from the DEVIL..

Alam ko. Lumang luma na ‘to at ilang beses ko na rin ‘tong nabasa sa blog ng iba at kahit sa papel na pinapakalat ng mga nagsheshare ng words of God, nabasa ko na rin ‘to. Nung nakita ko ang papel na yun, nagulat at hmm… medyo namangha ako sa nabasa ko. Oo, may katotohanan din kasi yung mga nakalagay dun sa nasabing piraso ng papel. Eto, basahin niyo. Thanks nga pala dun sa nagbigay ng piraso ng papel na iyon at salamat na rin sa mga nagpost nito sa blog nila. Enjoy..

i saw you yesterday as you began your daily chores.

You awoke without kneeling to pray. As a matter of fact, you didn’t even bless your meals, or pray before going to bed last night. You are so unthankful, i like that about you. i cannot tell you how glad i am that you have not changed your way of living, you are mine.

Remember, you and i have been going steady for years. And i still don’t love you yet. He kicked me out of heaven, and i’m going to use you as long as possible to pay Him back.

You see, fool, GOD LOVES YOU and He has great plans in store for you. but you have yielded your life to me, and i’m going to make your life a living hell. that way, we’ll be together twice.

This will really hurt God. thanks to you, i’m really showing Him who’s boss in your life with all of the good times we’ve had. We have been cursing people out, stealing, lying, being hypocritical, fornicating, overeating, telling dirty jokes, gossiping, being judgmental, back stabbing people, disrespecting adults and those in leadership positions, no respect for the church, bad attitudes. SURELY you don’t want to give all this up. Come on, let’s burn together forever.

i’ve got some hot plans for us. This is just a letter of appreciation from me to you. i’d like to say “THANKS” for letting me use you for most of your foolish life. you ar so gullible, i laugh at you.

When you are tempted to sin you give in. HAHAHA! You make me sick! Sin is beginning to take its toll on your life. You look 20 years older, and now, i need new blood.

So go ahead and teach some children how to sin. All you have to do is smoke, get drunk or drink while under aged, cheat, gamble, gossip, fornicate, and live being as selfish as possible. Do all this in the presence of children and they will do it too. kids are like that.

Well, i have to let you go for now. i’ll be back in a couple of seconds to tempt you again. If you were smart, you would run somewhere, confess your sins, live for God with what little bit of life that you have left.

It’s not my nature to warn anyone, but to be your age and still sinning, it’s becoming a bit ridiculous. don’t get me wrong, i still hate you.

P.S. If you really love me, you won’t share this letter with anyone.
