God’s Will over Our Choices..

Weeks ago we had a meaningful topic during our “wednesdays with wesley”.. it was about “how to tame your tongue” and one of the ways to tame it is to keep or avoid telling lies.. what’s nice about “wednesdays w/ wesley” is we are able to argue on something, get our points straight, learn how to listen to what each and every one has to say..

Soc presented a situation that made us all think: “pano kung merong mga taong kumatok sa bahay niyo, hinanap ang tatay mo.. alam mo na papatayin nila tatay mo pag nalaman nila kung asan ito.. eh alam mong nasa loob lang ng bahay niyo un tatay mo.. ano gagawin mo? would you lie and tell them you dont know where your father is? Or would you tell the truth and tell them ‘andun po nanunuod ng tv sa kwarto niya’?”

simple scenario, but tough.. may mga nagsabi na parang let God’s Will be Done.. meron namang nagsabi na shempre tatay ko un, hindi ko ituturo kung asan.. at isa ako sa mga sumagot nun.. my point was this.. tama rin naman na i-save mo ang tatay mo, at tama rin nman ang magsabi ng totoo.. para kase skin, hindi na siguro BigDeal ang magsinungaling sa ganung situation.. hindi naman siguro ako itatakwil ni God for lying/saving my father.. tama ba? sa lahat ng situation kase, meron kang choice..

walang “No Choice” sa mundo.. it will still always be a question of “to choose or Not to choose”.. tama na i-submit mo lahat kay God (as what wesley said), and it’s always a choice of “Let God’s Will be done” or Let mY Will be done” (na sabi nman ni mickey)..

for me.. this is what i realized nights ago.. sa pilahan ng jeep pauwi.. mag-iisang oras na kase akong nakapila.. ilan lang sa mga nakapila ang nagdesisyon na umalis nlng dahil muka nmang wala ng darating na jeep.. at ako, nag-iisip na rin.. sabi ko “let Your Will be done, Lord”.. pero, bigla ko naisip.. how will i know what God’s Will is, if i don’t make a move?

i had to make a choice.. people have to make a choice para malaman nila what God’s Will is..

hirap iexplain pero.. can’t you see.. it’s all God’s Will.. whatever we decide on.. whatever choice we choose, meron nang nakahandang Will si God for us..

sa situation na inexample ni Soc, at sa paghihintay ko ng jeep..or let’s say sa everyday life natin.. we all have to make a choice and for every choice we make we simply have to entrust whatever will happen next kay God.. and i think that’s what “Let God’s Will Be Done” means..

sana i made sense..
