⚠️Heads up: This is a long post.⚠️
UNPOPULAR OPINION: Not everyone is gifted in expressing their faith or explaining what they've learned from Scripture. Some of us are still learning. Not just how to speak about it, but how to live it. I know I am.
There have been moments when I've allowed emotions to take over: when I've compared, called people out, spoken too bluntly, raised my voice, or even hurt someone's ego just to prove a point. Looking back, I recognize how WRONG that was. Growth isn't always graceful. Sometimes it reveals the parts of us that still need refining. But I also believe that when a seed has been planted in someone's heart, even if it hasn't fully grown yet, there will be conviction. There will be that quiet tug of regret, whether it comes immediately or days later. And while we can't undo the damage once it's been done, we can choose humility. We can choose repentance. We can choose to do better next time. None of us are perfect. We’re all in different stages of growth. And sometimes, what a person needs after stumbling isn't another push or condemnation, but a hand to help them stand again.
As a Christian, I felt the urge to share this even after almost a month of not posting anything on this page. It genuinely pains me when I see jokes like, "*Do something reckless* + 'sabi ni Lord.'" Maybe for some it's just humor, but for me, it's personal.
My family and I have gone through many challenges. Yet because we know we have Him in our lives, it often doesn't even feel like we've faced them alone. Every day, we try to live fully dependent on Him. And truly, He has never let us down. In fact, He continues to bless us far more than we deserve.
That's why it's not a joke when someone says, "Sabi ni Lord ganito ang gawin ko." We have personally experienced His guidance. We have felt it. And for us, it is real. Using the Lord's name in memes or careless jokes may seem small, but it carries weight. Faith is not something we play with, it is something we live by.
Sharing my favorite verse that speaks to my heart during moments like this:
Philippians 4:8 (NLT) "And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise."
Let's choose love and grace, not hate.💗😊
