Ang Buhay bilang Disipulo ni Jesus

            Matagal na panahon na ang lumipas nang may isang taong isinilang sa katauhan ng Birheng Maria sa pagkilos ng Espiritu ng Diyos. At ang pangalan niya ay Si Jesus. Si Jesus ay naparito sa mundo upang gawain ang kalooban ng Diyos sa langit at ito ang pagliligtas sa lahat ng tao mula sa kanilang kasalanan. Habang si Jesus ay nandito sa mundo, siya ay nagturo ng salita ng Diyos, nagpagaling, nagpakain at marami pang iba. Marami rin ang naninwala sa kanya at sumunod sa kanya. Ang mga tagasunod ni Jesus ay tintawag na disipulo. Sila ang mga kasama ni Jesus sa bawat gawain upang maipadama sa lahat ang pag-ibig ng Diyos. Ngunit mayroon din naming mga tao noon na hindi naniwala kay Jesus.

            Gayun pa man, ay dumating ang araw na matutupad ang pagliligtas ng Diyos. Si Jesus, kahit walang kasalanan at gumagawa ng mabuti, ay hinuli, pinarusahan, ipinako sa krus, at inilibing.

            Takot na takot ang mga disipulo ni Jesus ng mga araw na iyon dahil nawala ang pag-asa nila na si Jesus. Ngunit ang hindi nila agad nalaman ay nabuhay na muli si Jesus matapos ng tatlong araw sa pamamagitan ng kapangyarihan ng Diyos.

            Nagpakita si Jesus sa kaniyang mga alagad at napatunayan na siya nga ay tunay na nabuhay. Bago umakyat si Jesus sa langit ay kinausap niya ang kanyang mga disipulo at nagbilin siya sa kaniyang mga alagad na hintayin nila ang ipinangko ng Diyos. Ito ay ang Banal na Espiritu na sasama sa kanila upang mapagpatuloy nila ang mga sinimulang gawain ni Jesus at magpatotoo patungkol sa kaniya.

            Dumating sa buhay ng mga disipulo ang pangakong Banal na Espiritu ng Diyos at sila ay humayo at inihayag ang patungkol kay Jesus, ang pagtalikod sa kasalanan at ang pagtanggap kay Jesus. Maraming ang naniwala sa kanila at dumadag para maging alagad ni Jesus. Sa araw na iyon ay mayroong tatlong libong katao. At ang ginagawa nila ay sama-sama silang nag-aral ng salita ng Diyos, kumain, at nanalangin.

            Ang lahat ng naniniwala kay Jesus ay nagsama-sama at lahat nang mayroon sila ay para sa lahat.  At ipinagbili rin nila ang mga ibang ari-arian para ibahagi sa mga nangangailangan. Patuloy silang nagsama-sama bilang mga naniniwala sa Diyos, sila ay masayang nagsamasama sa tahanan ng Diyos, nagbibigayan, at nagpupuri sa Diyos. At bawat araw ay nadaragdagan ang taong nagsisi sa kanilang kasalanan, tinatanggap si Jesus at naligtas.

                                                           

            Sa kwentong ito ay makikita natin ang Pag-ibig ng Diyos, ang mga gawain ni Jesus, at kung paano namuhay ang lahat ng taong naniniwala kay Jesus. Itinuturo sa atin ngayon na mahalaga na tayo bilang naniniwala kay Jesus ay magsama-sama, masaya, nagbibigayan, nagtutulungan, nanalanagin, nagpupuri sa Diyos at higit sa lahat ay nagmamahalan.

Devotion The Greatest Commandment

  Matthew 22:34-40 NRSV The Greatest Commandment 34 When the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together, 35 and one of them, an expert in the law, asked him a question to test him. 36 “Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?” 37 He said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the greatest and first commandment. 39 And a second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ 40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.” Is it enough to just know? Is it enough to just know the greatest commandment? What is the greatest commandment? We should know the greatest commandment. And we should obey it as the LORD commands. In our text today, the beginning verse started with the Pharisees and the experts of the law gathered together. One of them questioned Jesus about the commandment. This one, who is a law expert, tried to test J...

For a quick background of the story, the father has two sons and the younger son asked his father to give him his inheritance. When the younger son received his inheritance, he decided to go away and spend his wealth to please himself. He experienced struggles being away and lost everything until he realized that he was wrong about his decision and decided to go back to his father, not as his son but as a slave. The father was very happy when he saw his younger son return. Because he was lost and now found. The father’s happiness is not limited to affirmation and forgiveness. The father even made a celebration and welcomed his son without condemnation. However, the reaction of t...
