For quite sometime, I've become alarmed with the happenings around the people around me.

JUSTIFICATIONS. REASONS. Maybe these are the things that are running in their minds or that these are the things that are taped in their mouths. I don't really know how they run their lives now.

You and me against all odds. I wonder if these words were already scribbled out from them.

7 WONDERS:

>I wonder if they remembered to wait for the right person until the right time.

>I wonder what's going in their minds of why they forgot what they have committed long before.

>I wonder why there's toleration. 

>I wonder why rebuking with love is nowhere to be found.

>I wonder why they seem to be blinded of what they are doing, maybe they really need some serious help.

>I wonder why the teachings have become forgotten, have been set aside.

>I wonder if what might have happened.

I stand to be corrected, but here's my say:

These are the times when we can't just go with the flow - the times when the choices are whether to conform or not to the world. When life requires decisions that are hard to make you can never tell where you are walking unless someone pokes you and you start looking around you. Well, this is not a condemnation but a reminder, a loving rebuke from a sibling. I know my stand, I don't condemn because I don't know what is really happening (and I guess it's not that easy, yeah). Others might say I'm being perfectionist and all or "it's easy to say because your not in our position" or "look who's saying", but it's not like I am jealous here or what. Yes, I have just become curious. So what I want you to know, to understand is, my part saying: Are we forgetting something? Well, I take some guilt here because, I've become passive with the issue. I admit I took it for granted until it became a great alarm. It maybe hard to understand. You may say what you want to say. You might get hurt and so, I apologize. But let us be a strong church that can not be wavered by unstable emotions. Let us guard ourselves as we try to make it grow in Christ. Let us help ourselves stand up and build a stronger church with others without concern for ourselves. I know its easy to say but hard to do, but let us bear in mind that we are holding REVIVAL for our church, isn't it? This might sound bossy, but this is definitely not a duty. I may really sound structured but I tell you, I just want to protect the church.

Of course it's not easy, but let's face reality, we are not just the ones that are experiencing hardships, there's just a lot of people out there who experiences more than what we are going through - because it has already become a foothold to them. We are blessed, I believe, because we've become stronger because of the things we learned to let go. So this time, please understand that I have become a watcher, a rebuke-r. But who knows what life will bring after a short time, I am open to whoever it maybe the one to tell me a loving rebuke that will definitely bring pain and joy in a life that is growing in Christ. Who knows, it might be you. :]

We should be reminded that as Christians, there are certain people that looks at us; people who think of us as to be role models. So in order to properly settle things, let us show them that what they see in us is Jesus, what they really wanted to see more is Jesus shining more in their lives. Let us not be conceited and isolated. Let us stand on the freedom that He had given us for such a long time ago. Let us initiate to light up the world as a strong Christian generation.
