Bakit may mga bata sa kalye?
AJ on the Street # 1
Sabi nila, everything happens for a reason. God has made a perfect plan. He knows exactly how things should be and where things and people should be placed in this “wonderful” world. Pero bakit ganun? Bakit may mahihirap? Bakit may mga masasamang tao? Bakit may ibang maagang kinukuha ni Lord kahit anong bait o galing nila? Bakit may mga bata sa kalye? Minsan sa buhay ko, naitanong ko. Ginusto kaya ni Lord yun? OK lang ba sa kanya na may mga gutom habang may mga iba na nagtatapon lang ng pagkain? Na may mga matatalinong bata pero di nakakapag-aral? Na may mga pamilyang malaki pero walang pera, at pamilyang maliit pero sobrang yaman? Yun ba yung perfect plan? Yun ba yung wonderful world?
LIFE. Sa tagalog, BUHAY. Yan ung mga panahon na nakakahinga pa tayo, nakakapag-isip at naigagalaw pa natin ang ating mga katawan. Sa buhay, some people would believe and hold on to the principle of “destiny.” The Americans would claim na “life is what / how you make it.” Ang pinoy naman “bahala na si Batman.” Yung iba, “just live life to the fullest.” At ika nga ng Globe telecom, “Go lang ng Go!” Later on, napagtanto ko na: “Buti na lang nandyan si God.” Or at least, buti na lang I have an idea of a God and His purpose. With him kasi, I am able to think as rationally as possible. Naisip ko, I should trust in Him and think that whatever’s happening now, happens for a reason. For some, (or, OK I admit, for me) pampalubag loob kumbaga, Pinoy eh, puno ng pag-asa na sa kabila ng hirap ng buhay ay may Diyos naman na hindi ako iiwan o pababayaan. I made myself believe na totoong God’s plan is perfect. Mangyayari ang dapat mangyari at sa bandang huli, magiging masaya rin ako. Wala namang mawawala kung maniniwala, di ba?
From there, and going back to my claim na “with God I become rational,” I realized maybe God’s plan do not look as perfect sa standard ng ordinaryong tao tulad ko pero looking and carefully analyzing how it works, you’ll see the brilliance of God. Heard success stories of people who once roamed the streets na ngayon mga multi millionaire na? PMA Barons na anak ng labandera o pedikab drayber o dating nagtitinda lang ng sampagita sa kalsada. Maybe these kids were there now but who knows what tomorrow have for them? And for us, hindi kaya isa sa mga batang yan ang magliligtas ng buhay naten baling araw. Say muntik tayong masagasaan. O kaya madukutan tapos tutulungan nila tayo maretrieve yung nadukot (wag naman sana sila yung nandukot). Or maybe, tayo ang nakalaang tutulong sa kanila. Konektado lahat ang mga buhay natin. Aminin man natin o hindi. I end here and I hope I made sense with this entry. Medyo magulo rin kasi ang isip ko ngayon. Hmm… Comment below. J
Kung ginawang perfect ni God yung mundo, kakailanganin pa ba ntn sya? edi malamang lahat na nagpaksarap at di na sya inintindi. ngyon pa nga lang parang nkakalimutan na ng karamihan na lumapit sknya db?
kaya po cgro ginawa nyang gnun. 
You do have a good point po Sarin
the only thing there po is your definition of perfect… not to oversee what God thinks po pero I don’t think his definition of perfect is when people started doing their own thing… kasi in this view God will make this world perfect if and only if we can already say in total virtue that this world is heaven.. heaven as defined not as practically stated po.. 
pero you really did have a good point po there.. 
?”Ginusto kaya ni Lord yun?”—- For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11). ANg Bible lang ang nakakapgpatunay ng mga plano sa atin ni Lord. This is His plan for us, if we just believe and stand firm in His words. Faith din ang papaganahin dapat, kaso ang faith ay nagmumula sa Word of God (Romans 10:17). If you want to know God’s will, AJ, read the Bible. Ganyand din ang tanong ko noon, noong hindi ko pa kilala si Kristo, mas matitinding tanong, pero nung nakilala ko Siya nang mas malalim sa tulong ng mga churchmates ko at ng Bible, nag -iba ang tingin ko sa lahat. =)

Sorry galing sa fb ko. =) kaya hindi ko natanggal yung “2 mins ago”. Hahah
i guess, if God really made everything as perfect as what you have wanted..YOU’LL NEVER KNOW, THAT GOD EXIST.. Hehehe.. through reading this, it reminds me of my lessons in “ethics”.. sabi don.. THere are things in this world, in which Our God allowed to happen..WHY? for a better purpose..
If we are all born with GOLDS and having a marangya na buhay, we will never learn how to strive hard.. sabi mo nga, konekted ang happenings sa buhay natin lahat..it means, if we are concerned to those who are working at an early age, we can be the catalyst of change, of positivism and etc. may iba-iba kasing tao sa mundong ito, the majority who doesnt even care what’s happening yata, the several who doesnt know whats happening..HA-HA..AND THE FEW, WHO MAKE THINGS HAPPEN..
The best practical point so far. Pero sorry po if i’ll disagree with your definition of perfect. My point po is this let us consider that heaven is yet the best place to be defined as perfect. In a non-sequitur esse thinking po one may say that the beings in heaven still do consider God’s existence and that they are very well aware of it… one may not call this world as perfect if the definition of perfect is only under the level of human thinking… and for us filipino po… look back at the origins of our culture.. we might as well be guided… try reviving the history and you will see the answer.. but as it is po history do repeat itself but it gets the details wrong the second and/or third time around… pero i stand by what you said po BOSSing
NOTE: “NOT JUST FOR A BETTER PURPOSE PALA! heheheheh.. FOR A GREATER GOOD”
Sabi nga ang buhay ay parang isang gulong. Kung minsan nasa taas ka, kung minsan naman nasa baba. Sa bansang kinabibilangan natin ngayon, mas marami ang mga nasa baba, marami silang nananatiling mamuhay sa di karangyaang buhay tulad ng iba. Pero tulad din ng isang gulong, meron at merong nagpapandar dito para patuloy ito sa pagikot, ang driver. Tayo ang mga driver ng sarili nating mga buhay. Nasa atin nakasalalay ang landas na ating tatahakin. Nasa mga kamay natin ang desisyon kung magpapatuloy ba tayo sa mahabang biyahe na tila yata’y walang katapusan. Lahat tayo’y makakadanas ng pagkabigo sa buhay, pero huwag nating hayaan na patuloy tayong mabulok sa baba ng lugar na kinalalagyan natin. Matuto tayong mangarap at pasiklabin ang apoy ng ating mga pag-asa. Minsan lang mabuhay sa mundong ibabaw. Tayo lamang ang makakagawa para ipagpatuloy ang pagikot ng gulong. Wag magantay ng biyaya. Dapat ito’y paghirapan. Sipag, tyaga at pasyensa ang kailangan. Mararating din natin ang itaas kung ito’y nakalaan.
Boc, you truly have a good perception in life. :] saludo ako sa pagiging rational mo. And good to know that its with God.. sa buhay madami na din akong napagdaanang pagsubok, pero ni minsan di ko inisip na God put me to those hardships because he wants to see us supper, but it has a purpose. If God gives us trial in life, we have our heartaches or nalo-low maral tayo kung baga. Pero alam ba natin ang nararamdaman nya, cgurado ako na DOBLE ang sakit sa kanyang dadamin sa mga panahon iyon. I believe that God put us into such trials to realize something. May mga batang kalye dahil tingin ko para gisingin ang mga taong nagbubulag bulagan lang na walang pakealam sa mga nangyayari sa paligid nila.. tingin ko lang naman.. lol. but in my own perception in order to live life to the fullest you must learn to live without fear, go through such pain and sufferings without complaining and appreciate the beauty of the common things around you.. yan lang ang mashe-share ko sayo ngayon kapatid sa pananalig. hehe hanggang sa muli. sabi nga sa desiderata, STRIVE TO BE HAPPY.. :] mabuhay ka!(teleport!)
Yes! God has plan for all of us. But do we/ they believe in God? We, the Filipino citizens, yes, we believe in God but, for another question, do we/ they believe in the WORD of God?
