Matthew 2:13-15, 19-23

1.      DISPU! (DIOS PU) LUGUD PO! Minsan, tinando ya awang y Imang Zon at ikit na ating atlung matwang lalaking ating makabang maputing balbas, ding manenayang makalukluk arapan ning keyang bale. Lepitan no reng atlung lalaki at nganang mengutang, “ninu pu ila? E da ko pu akikilala pero balamu mapagal kayu at lupang maranup.

Luke 1:67-79, BENEDICTUS

Points for Reflection

1.      Fetal Development in the womb of the mother

2.      God has not given us up (lugud a manyadsad)

3.      Benedictus (to speak well, and wish the best for someone)

4.      The Christmas story continues in us

1.      FETAL DEVELOPMENT IN THE WOMB OF THE MOTHER

Nine Simbang Bengi masses remind us of the nine months development of fetus in the womb of the mother. During the first three months there is the development f the brain, heart, hands and feet. During our nine morning masses, the Lord wants us to develop our brain, (pamakiramdam karing kayang Amanu at pamangilala kaya king Banal a Misa). The Lord wants us to develop our hearts. May we grow in the love of God and love of neighbor during this Christmas. Only a fertile heart and heart full of love can conceive and give birth to Christ. The Lord wants us to grow in the service of God, neighbor and community.

There are children who are born healthy and red because they reached their full term. There are children born pale and weak and infected ,although full term, because they have not been nourished properly by their mothers during their conception period. Some are born pre-term and they have to struggle for survival in the incubator with respirator and dextrose. Likewise, some of us struggle in their faith. God wants us to grow all term in our human and Christian life. GROWTH INTO MATURITY IS A LIFETIME PROCESS.

2.      One time I celebrated the golden wedding anniversary of Alberto and Zenaida. After the mass I greeted them HAPPY WEDDING ANNIVERSARY. “Happy?” I asked Alberto. HE said, “Among please ask my wife if she is happy. Zenaida said, “Yes among Masaya ku uling sidsad naku ning asawa ku anggyang e ku biasang maglutu at mamalantsa. Aduang beses migtaksil ku kaya pero pepatawaran naku at tinngap bilang asawa na. E ku ne agyung paglibe ing asawa ku. E ku ne agyung lokwan. Gintu ing lugud na kanaku. E na agyung siran ning nanumang kataksilan ing lugud na kanaku. E ya migbayu kanaku. Sabi ku, “Tutu ya ing golden wedding anniversary yu uling menatili kayung tapat king metung at metung sumangid ning kakulangan ning pangatau yu. Ing gintu masusubuk ya king api. Misadsad ka uling sidsad na ka ning asawa mu sumangid ning kataksilan mu.” Anang Zenaida king asawa na, “Sweetheart, salamat apibata mu ku for the rest of the 50 years tang pamiyutus. I love you.” Mekibat ya ing asawa na kapamilatan ning kaul at uma king kayang kanuan.”

The Lord has not given us up. Sidsad nakatamu ning Dios. Mikatawan yang tau banketa iligtas nakatamu. Mayan maging tau uling sidsad nakatamu ning Dios, uling kaluguran nakatamu ning Dios. Sidsad nakatamu ning Dios sumangid da ring dakal tamung kasalanan at pamagkulang. Ikong miasawa isadsad yo ring asawa yu sumangid ning kakulangan ning metung at metung. Ikong pengari isadsad yong paragulan ding anak yu at e ko sasawang magdisiplina karela. Ikong susuyu king parokya tamu, isadsad yu ing pamanyuyu yu king Apung Ginu sumangid ning kakulangan ning pari.

Let us thank God, he not given us up inspite of our sins. Let us thank our parent, who has not given us up sumangid ning kesyasan tamu buntuk at pamanlaban karela. Let us not give up serving the church inspite of many setbacks because the Lord does not give up on us.

3.      The gospel today speaks about the canticle of Zechariah. In Latin it is called BENEDICTUS. Mary’s song is called MAGNIFICAT while the canticle of Zachariah is called BENEDICTUS. BENE means WELL AND GOOD. DICERE, DICTUS means to say or speak something. Benedictus means to say something good, or to wish all the best things in life for someone. During this Christmas let us wish the best for everybody. Let us speak well of all. If at this time ang bukambibig pa natin ay puro masamang balita at poot at galit sa kapwa sila ang mga taong humahadlang sa pagsilang ng Panginoon. The Lord will not be born to those whose songs in life are full of heartaches and bad news in life.

Parents bendisyunan ninyo ang mga anak ninyo. Huwag ninyo silang mumurain o isusumpa sa kabila ng kanilang pagkukulang o katigasan ng ulo. Matindi ang sumpa ng mga magulang sa mga anak. Mga anak bendisyunan ninyo ang inyong mga magulang. Wish them long life and good health. Huwag ninyong ipagdasal na sana mamatay ang inyong mga magulang. Mahirap ang mawalan ng mga magulang. Mga mag-asawa, wish the best for one another. Let us keep on praising and blessing God for the many wonderful things that he has done for us in life. Let us keep on blessing others in our life.

4.      The story of Christmas continues. Mayroong kwento tungkol sa isang Hari na pumapatay ng asawa pagkatapos pagsawain ito. Nagkaroon ng matalinong asawa ang hari. At tuwing gabi kinukwentuhan ang hari upang ipag-patuloy ang kwento kinabukasan. Hindi nakuhang ipapatay ng hari ang asawa niya dahil lagi niyang pinananabikan ang kwento nito na lagi namang ITUTULOY. Yun ang paraang ginamit niya upang manatili siyang buhay. GAYUNDIN NAMAN nagpapatuloy ang kwento ng Simbang Gabi sa bawat buhay na ginagalawan natin. Mananatiling magpatuloy ang lahi ni Hesus habang may mga batang isinisilang at binibinyagan. Buhay si Jose sa mga taong tapat sa kanilang mga asawa at mga tungkulin. Buhay si Elisabet at Zachariah sa mga matatandang hindi nagsasawang naglilingkod sa Panginoon. Buhay si Juan Bautista sa mga taong walang sawang naglilingkod upang lalong mapalapit ang tao sa Dios. ANG KWENTO NG PASKO AY NAGPATULOY SA BUHAY NG BAWAT ISA SA ATIN. MALIGAYANG PASKO SA ATING LAHAT. AMEN!

Luke 1:57-66

THE BIRTH AND NAMING OF JOHN THE BAPTIST

Points for reflections:

1.      The twin joy Elizabeth

2.      The birth of a child in Israel. The birthing process.

3.      The naming of John (Yohanan ) It means, God is good, God is gracious, Gift of God, God’s favor. Let us thank God for his countless blessings.

4.      Preparing children for life and for eternal life. 

5.      Bringing out the best in the parents and in the child

The gospel today is about the birth of John the Baptist. Doble-doble ang galak

sa puso ni Elizabeth dahil:

a)     Sa kabila ng kanyang pagkabaog siya ay nagkaanak. She was vindicated by God. Sinagip ako ng Dios sa napakalaking kahihiyan. Thelma and Roger threw a big party at the birth of their only child,  after thirteen years of waiting, in order to tell the world na hindi sila baog.

b)   Nagkaanak sila ng lalaki. May magdadala ng apelido at magpapatuloy sa lahi ni Zechariah. May kaibigan ako gusto niyang magkaroon ng lalaki. Labing isang babae ang anak niya bago lumabas ang lalaki.

1.      Sa mga Israelita, kapag nanganganak na ang babae, magtitipun-tipon ang mga kapitbahay at kamaganakan sa tabi ng bahay. Kapag sinabi ng kumadrona ang bata ay lalaki - tugtugan at sayawan ang magaganap. Ngunit kapag sinabi ng kumadrona na ang bata ay babae, malungkot silang uuwi ng kanilang mga bahay. Hindi dapat. Kailangan ipagdiwang ang pagsilang ng isang bata, lalaki man o babae. Sa kultura ng mga Israelita, ang mga babae ay walang karapatan sa lipunan. Sila ay mga disposable property. Napakababa ng turing at tingin nila sa mga babae.

Pantay ang babae at lalaki sa pagkatao ngunit magkaiba ng papel na ginagampanan sa buhay. Sa libro ng Genesis, nagmula si Eva sa tagyang ni Adan. Somewhere in the middle, to symbolize a certain equality. Malapit sa puso upang sila ay magmahalan at malapit sa kamay, upang sila ay magtulungan.

2.   Ang panganganak ay delikadong karanasan. The traditional way is very traumatic. Maraming sigawan, commotion, flood lights, ibabaligtad ng patiwarik and bata, papaluin ang bata upang paiyakin siya para huminga at bumuka ang kanyang baga. There is a new method of gentle child birth with gentle music at the background. And when the child is born, he is placed on the breast of the mother so he can hear his mother’s heartbeat. Kaya raw umiiyak ang bata sa oras nang pagsilang dahil hinahanap niya ang tibok ng puso ng kanyang nanay, na kanyang naririnig sa loob ng siyam na buwan sa sinapupunan ng kanyang ina. for 9 months inside the womb. The baby is given a warm bath and placed beside the mother.

NOON ang anak ng mga tao ay tig-sasampu. Dahil napakagaan ng buhay noon at marami sa mga tao ay farmers, so they need many children to help in the work in the fields. Noon maraming isda sa parang, sagana ang pagkain sa mga bukid. Children are considered blessings in the Jewish culture. Napakasuwete ng mga bata sa Pilipinas. Sila ang pag-asa n gating bayan. At hindi mamatay ang lahing Filipino dahi tayo ay PRO-LIFE AT PRO- FAMILY.

NOON, kapag may nanganganak, the questions are: kumusta ang ina? Ok ba siya? Kumusta ang bata? Malusog ba siya? Sino ang kamukha ng bata.

NGAYON, ang tanong ay medyo iba na. SINO KAYA ANG AMA NG BATA?

3.      Sila ay nagkaroon ng konting alitan kung ano ang ipapangalan nila sa bata dahil gusto ni Elizabeth ang pangalan ng bata ay JUAN. They asked the father and he wrote in a tablet, his name is John. And Zacharias spoke again.

John comes from YOHANAN. GOD IS GOOD. GOD IS GRACIOUS, GOD IS FAVORABLE, GOD’S GIFT. ANG MGA BATA AY REGALO NG DIYOS, mahalin at tanggapin natin sila. BAGAMAT IKAW ANG NAMILI NG MAGIGING ASAWA MO AT SA KANYA KA KUSANG LOOB NA NAGPAKASAL, ang misteryo ng buhay ay hindi tayo namili ng mga magulang. Hindi rin sila namili ng mga anak. Regalo ng Dios ang bawat isa sa pamilya.

NAMING OF THE CHILD. NOON ang baho ng mga pangalan tulad ng Gunigundo, Ambrosio, Tiburcio atbp. NGAYON IBA NA ANG PANGALAN NG MARAMING BATA. Mayroon ng Turbo, Kelvinator, Kring-kring, Klang-klang malapit na silang tawaging Kingkong o kaya kurikong.

4.      Juan, regalo ng Dios sa sambayanang Israel upang ihanda ang mga tao sa pagdating ng Panginoom. Tulad ni Juan mayroon tayong misyon na ihanda ang mga bata tungo sa isang buhay na maganda.

5.      WHAT IS GOOD LIFE?

a.       GOOD LIFE IS GOOD FOOD & NUTRITION.

b.      GOOD LIFE IS GOOD HEALTH & IMMUNIZATION PROGRAM

c.       GOOD LIFE IS GOOD EDUCATION so they are equipped with mental powers. educate the heart so they become loving persons.

d.      GOOD LIFE IS GOD DISCIPLINE.

e.       GOOD LIFE IS HAVING GOOD MANNERS & RIGHT CONDUCT

f.        GOOD LIFE IS HAVING GOOD MORAL & SPIRITUAL VALUES.

g.       GOOD LIFE IS LIVING A GOOD CHRISTIAN LIFE.

6.      Children bring out the best in their parents. A child will bring out the best of the maternal instinct in a woman. Once a couple bears a child, they are no longer husband and wife. They become parents, mother and father. And the child will bring out the best in a mother or father. Parents in return should bring out the best in a child by developing their talents, giving them good education and good health, good discipline and good moral and spiritual values. Amen.

SIMBANG GABI 7, DECEMBER 22, 2010

Luke 1:46-56 MAGNIFICAT

Points for Reflection

1.    Levels of Expressions of the mind, heart and soul (speech, poetry, song, prayer).

2.     National anthem embodies the noblest dreams and highest aspirations of a people.

3. Magnificat: Mary's song of praise and thanksgiving to God

4.      Ano ang theme song mo sa buhay?

5. Our theme song should be thank you, salamat/a grateful heart.

1.    MUSIKA AT POESIA. Marami sa atin ang nag-aaral ng Balarila, English grammar o Language Arts upang maging matatas sa pagsasalita ng Pilipino o kaya English. Kamangha-mangha ang taong marunong magsalita ng Pilipino at English sa tamang pamamaraan at grammar. Maraming mga taong marunong magsulat upang ipahayag ang kanilang mga isip at damdamin. Ang panulat ay isang makapangyarihang sandata upang baguhin ang takbo ng isip at pananaw ng mga tao. Poetry and music are the languages of the soul. Ang isang taong in-love o sumisinta, nangungusap ang puso sa pamamagitan ng poesia o kaya musika. Napakaraming mga kanta tungkol sa pag-ibig.

2.  HARANA AT PAMAYPAY. Noong unang panahon dahil strikto ang mga magulang at nakatingin ng masama si kuya sa lumiligaw kay ate, mahirap sa lalaki na magpahayag ng damdamin, kaya ito ay idinadaan na lang sa Harana. At ang paraan naman ng babae upang ipahayag ang kanyang nararamdaman ay sa pamamagitan ng pamaypay. Kapag pinukaw ng harana at gitara ang katahimikan ng gabi, may lalaking gustong magpahayag ng kanyang nasasakal na pag-ibig. Kapag hindi nabuksan ang bintana at walang nasilayan na ilaw. Umuwi ka na at hindi interesado sa iyo ang babae. Ngunit kapag nabuksan ang bintana at  nasilayan mo ang ilaw ng lampara paritan, at tumanaw ang iyong sinisinta na nakatakip ng pamaypay ang mukha, ibig sabihin, may pag-asa ka. Kapag gumalaw ng unti-unti ang pamaypay, ibig sabihin, pagbutihin mo dahil nagkakagusto na ang babae sa iyo. At kapag bumaba ang pamaypay sa kanyang dibdib ibig sabihin, tumitibok na ang puso niya para sa iyo. At kapag binilisan ang paypay, ibig sabihin bilisan mo ang panliligaw dahil gusto na niyang magpakasal. Pero kapag sinara ang pamaypay at inihampas sa bintana, ibig sabihin umalis ka na, baka habulin kang ng itak ng tatay ko at umuwi kang putol ang isang paa.

3. LUPANG HINIRANG. Ang bawat bansa ay may National Anthem. Alam ba ninyo na ang Philippine National Anthem ay isa sa napakagandang pambansang awit sa buong mundo? Our national anthem embodies the noblest dreams, deepest aspirations and feelings of the Filipino people. That same feeling was felt by Lapu-lapu, Jose Rizal, Andres Bonifacio and Ninoy Aquino who came to the point of saying, “the Filipino is worth dying for.” During the EDSA 1 people’s power revolution, the HEART & SOUL of the Filipino people was capsulized by the song BAYAN KO. When I heard the Lupang Hinirang sang in foreign land I felt so proud as a Filipino. When I heard it played in Olympic games, a feeling of greatness is evoked  deep within me as a  Filipino.

3.      Tonight we hear Mary’s Magnificat. Her battle cry, the song of her soul and her whole being thanking and praising God. After a LONG TRIP FROM Galilee to Judea, Mary’s song was a song of praise. Kakayan ing obra at beyatan ning katawan potang biasa tamung magkanta. Kalupa ning kantang "Magtanim ay di Biro," maging mayan ing pamananam pale kabang kakanta de iti. Hindi sinabi ni Maria, “pagod na pagod na ako, masakit ang paa ko, tuhod ko at talampakan ko. Pahinga muna ako at masakit ang buo kong katawan.” Rather she said, “my whole being proclaims the greatness of the Lord.”

4.   The flower Pascua or pontietia assumes red color leaves when the night begins to get longer than the day. It is a photo reaction of the leaves to the light. Red leaves begin to bloom during longer period of darkness. LOVE SHOULD be greater in times of darkness and moments of trials. Like Mary and the PONTIETTIA  we should bloom in the dark night of our life. Amidst sufferings, trials and tribulations in life, we should thank God, and magnify his mercy and proclaim the great things he has done for us.

5.      ANO BA ANG THEME SONG NATIN SA BUHAY?

-          Marami ngayon ang kanilang theme song ay mga daing ng buhay, tulad ng mahal ang mga bilihin, walang pera, walang trabaho, tumaas and presyo ng gasolina at iba pa.

-          Mayroon akong auntie, ayaw ko siyang masyadong pinupuntahan. Dahil kapag binibisita ko siya feeling ko may sakit na rin ako. Wala siyang ibang sinabi kundi, “Greg masakit ang ulo ko. Malabo na ang mata ko. Kumikirot ang rayuma ko. Masakit ang tiyan ko. Mataas ang sugar ko. May diabetes ako. Kaya tuloy pag uwi ko para din akong may diabetes at rayuma. Misery seeks company. Pero kapag masayahin ang kausap mo gumagaan na rin ang feeling mo. Ang theme song ng iba ay sumbat, hinanakit o kaya sama ng loob. Sometimes we replay what we have experienced in childhood. If we have a happy childhood then we will play the same happy tune in life.

6.      TONIGHT MARY INVITES US TO SING THE SAME TUNE WITH HER. A SONG OF PRAISING AND THANKSGIVING. Like Mary, let us begin to count our blessings. Jesus was crucified on the cross and yet the cross is T and his corpus Y, meaning, thanksgiving in spite of sufferings. The word gratitude comes from gratis meaning FREE. What are the free gifts which we have received from our parents? Tonight let us count our blessings. The word salamat comes from the word SHALOM. Meaning PEACE. When we thank the Lord we will be at peace. Just like the song SILENT NIGHT which ends SLEEP IN HEAVENLY PEACE. Amen.

Luke 1:26-38 

1.     Atin metung a sine, mipamagatan yang “THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT MARY,” Iti kwentu ne ning metung a malagung babaing pibuburian da reng dakal a lalaki. Buri de ngan paglolon because there is something about her. Malagu ya. Masikan ya alindog. Masanting ya ugali at matalino ya.

Dalawa ang mukha ng pag-ibig, sa hirap at ginhawa, sa karamdaman o kalusugan, sa paghihikahos at kasaganaan…pero iisa lamang ang sagot, LAGING OO. It is when we say YES to God and to one another that an avalanche of GRACE will overflow into our lives. Dalawang letrang O, kapag pinarami ay nagiging OOOOO. Ibig sabihin iduduyan ka sa sarap sa piling ng iyong minamahal na asawa. At sa paghinog ng inyong pagsasama bilang mag-asawa, ay matutuklasan ninyo ang napakaraming mga SORPRESANG inihanda para sa inyo ng Diyos, beyond your imaginings. Yung dalawang letrang O ay simbulo rin nang dalawang ZERO. Zero plus zero always makes a ZERO. Kailangan natin si KRISTO sa ating buhay. Siya ang number ONE upang maging 100 per cent mananagumpay ang ating buhay.

12.  Kailangan  ne ning Dios ing TANGU nang Maria ban mibait ya ing Keyang Anak. Kailangan ne ning Dios ing TANGU ning balang metung kekatamu para miganap ing KALIGTASAN tamu. SALVATION IS A TEAMWORK BETWEEN GOD AND MAN. Sinabi nang San Agustin, “the God who created you without you, cannot save you without you.”  Amen!

Luke 1: 5-25 / Zacharias and Elizabeth

1. MEPUTUT ING LAHI. Ketang metung a parokyang pibatan ku, atin metung a maragul a bale kastila lele ning pisamban. Minsan kaibat kung mig-lunch penikan ke iting bale.

Ding anak metung lang maulagang sangkap ning metung a pamilya. Potang ding miyasawa mika-anak la mitatas ing antas ning mission da. They  become parents not simply a couples. they become mother and father not only husband and wife. Potang mikayanak la reng miyasawa mitatas ing level ning tula da. At ing pukul ning lugud da e na mu para karelang miyasawa, nune pati na para king anak da. The child becomes the centerpoint of their love.

2. IT’S NOT OK. Atin kung koya mete ya ing only daughter and child da at the age of twenty one. Minsan a community party, maranun lang meko bale di koya kung  Ted at asawa nang y Rose.  Likwan deng matudtud y Cristy king kwartu na, itang abak a maranun. Panenayan deng mag-recital king karelang community party pero 8pm na ala yu pa. Minaus la bale, alang makibat. Inyang muli la, bala da matudtud ya pa ing anak da, pero e ne pala mangisnawa. Mika-seizure ya pala itang benging ita king e ra kamalayan. Inyang datang la reng kaluguran da pengaul de y Rose at Ted a magsalbat king pangamate ning anak dang dalaga. Yakabud mewala ya pa. Sabi ning metung a kaluguran kang Rose to console her, “it’s ok.” Pekibat nang Rose, ‘IT’S NOT OK! Don’t tell me it’s ok, IT’S NOT OK! Namatayan ako nang anak.Hindi ninyo alam ang aking nararamdaman. Masakit! Masakit! Masakit! Hindi ganuon kadaling tanggapin iyon. I’m shattered!” It took three years for Rose & Ted to bounce back and move on from the loss of their only daughter. They transferred to a condominium uling mangapakiak la aldo-aldo indat mumuli la at akakit de ing tuknangan da. The house is there but Cristy is no longer there. Now they engaged themselves in counseling youth in prison houses and rehabilitation centers. Mababawas ing lungkut da potang manakit lang kayanakan a dalaga at baintau. Kapamilatan da akakit de ing anak da.

3. OKS NA OKS. Ing ebanghelio tamu tungkul ya kareng aduang matua, y Zakarias at y Elizabeth. Miras la king albugan ning bie ra a e la mikayanak. Pero sumangid ning e la mikayanak uling baug ya y Elizabeth, EVERYTHING WAS OK FOR THEM. Mibiebie lang mipnung kayapan at kapamintuan karing kautusan ning Dios.

Menatili lang tapat manalangin at susuyu king Dios. E kinupas ing karelang timan. E sinawa ing karelang suyu.

4. KWENTUNG MATUANG DALAGA.  Minsan atin metung a dalagang masuyu king parokya at sisimba aldo-aldo.

ING LUGUD E TALAKASAWA.

6. BAUG LA. Kareng Israelita ding anak regalu no ning Dios king pamilya. Maragul a kamarinayan kanita nung baug ya ing metung a lalaki o babae. Para karela nung dakal ka anak, pepanuanan na ka ning Dios. Inya kanita mas masanting at masaya ing dakal a anak. At nung e ka mikayanak anti ya mong misumpa ing matris mu. Inya nganang ginulisak Elizabeth king tula na inyang kinagli ya at menganak. "SEGIPAN NAKU NING DIOS KING MARAGUL A KAMARINAYAN."

7. Kambe nang Apung Cetu at CBCP laban tamu king R.H. Bill 96. Uling patie mipasar ya iti king congress e ne mabuo ing anak king matris ning babae at e no manganak ding babae. In Germany and  in many European countries, ala nang anak at ala nang manganak uli ning birth control program. E no bisang anak at ala nang bisang manganak.  Kerakalan karela matua na la.

Matthew 1:1-17

1.  QUALITY CONTROL. Minalin is well known as the EGG BASKET of Central Luzon. Everyday all kinds of eggs pass through quality control. They are separated by sizes and classified as small, medium, large and double yolk.  Those which are rejected are given away to others. Sad to say, sometimes we apply quality control in our lives and dealings with people. For example, when we celebrate our birthday we sometimes invite only those people we like and reject others in our list. And in our families, sometimes the last, the least, the lost and the disabled are not counted.

2.  Today we read in the gospel the family lineage of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is surprising how God included the great king David (who manipulated the death of Uriah to cover up his sin of adultery), the unknown  Salatiel and Sadoc,  the bastard Solomon, the Moabite foreigner Ruth, the woman Bathsheba (whom David lustfully desired) and the prostitutes  Tamar & Rahab, in his family tree.  By virtue of our baptism, we became a member of GOD’S FAMILY. In baptism we received the greatest dignity that we be called a son of God and the greatest privilege that we can call God OUR FATHER. God’s family tree continues in us. The list of names we heard today continues in our BOOKS OF BAPTISM. Everybody is invited to join God’s family. No one is rejected. Sad to say, due to wear and tear or due to negligence, some names could not be traced in the Baptismal Registry.

3.               WHAT FAMILY VALUES CAN WE LEARN FROM THE GOSPEl?

a.       Let us have a SENSE OF ORIGIN. When we were young, we sometimes joke kids who have unknown fathers by saying, APULUT DA KAMU KING TAKLANG DAMULAG or PUTOK SA BUHO in Tagalog. We know very well that no one came from carabao manure or a bamboo tree. All of us have an earthly father and mother. But sometimes in the baptismal certificate, a mother would rather enlist the name of the father as UNKNOWN. But even if the name of the father is unknown we can always say God is my father who loves me very much. One beautiful FAMILY ACTIVITY we can have this Christmas is to TRACE OUR FAMILY ROOTS. Ask your grandparents and parents the origins of your family. I am sure you will include the great personalities of your ancestries, like the president, your cousin mayor, nun, doctor, engineer and a son priest. But do not forget also to include the shameful members of the family like the poor, the disabled, the drug addict, the single mother, the special child and the mentally deranged. They are also members of our family.

b.     Let’s have a SENSE OF HISTORY. HISTORY IN TAGALOG is kasaysayan. And the word kasaysayan comes from two words SALAYSAY AT SAYSAY. Lahat tayo ay maraming mga kuwento at salaysay sa buhay, pero ang malungkot hindi natin nakikita ang saysay ng mga salaysay na nangyayari sa ating buhay. History teachers used to tell us, HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF. Wrong! History does not repeat itself, PEOPLE REPEAT HISTORY BECAUSE THEY NEVER LEARN FROM THE MISTAKES AND BLUNDERS OF THE PAST. If only we learn the lessons and mistakes of the past, we will never repeat history. If you are a product of a broken marriage, make it a point to work out your own marriage, until death do you part. Mahirap at masakit ang magkaroon ng isang sirang pamilya. Huwag ninyong iparanas sa inyong mga anak ang naranasan ninyong hirap noong maghiwalay ang inyong mga magulang.  Huwag ninyong gagawin sa inyong mga magulang ang ayaw ninyong gawin sa inyo ng inyong mga anak kapag tumanda na kayo, otherwise your children will repeat history. Kapampangan puts the word history better, KASALESAYAN,  meaning, SALESEN TAMU ING KAMALIAN NING MILABAS. Sa pamamagitan ng ating pagbabago at pagtutuwid sa kasalanan ng nakaraan, putulin natin ang daloy ng kasalanan sa ating lahi at simulan ang daloy ng grasya sa ating mga angkan at salit-saling lahi.

c.      Let’s have  a great SENSE OF FAMILY PRIDE. Be proud of your parents no matter how old and how baduy they are, or how poor and low class is their origins. Sila ang bumuhay sa atin at pinagmulan ng ating buhay. Be proud of your children. Always have something good to say about them. Be proud not only of good and great members of the family, also make sure the lost, the least and the last feel that they are accepted and they belong. Doon sa sitio Saudi, Balibago, may isang mother na may anak na mongoloid. The mother always tells me when they come for blessing, “father, hindi ko siya ikinahihiya, mahal na mahal ko siya.” At nakikita ko kumikislap ang mga mata ng bata dahil binuhay siya sa pagmamahal ng kanyang ina, hindi sa palo at tadyak ng kalupitan. Once a mother came crying to me because sha has a child with autism. Hindi niya matanggap ang bata. And she went to the point of saying, “Among, kung minsan iniisip ko na iwanan ko na lang siya sa daan upang masagasaan siya at mawala na siya sa buhay ko.” Sabi ko, “Huwag mong gagawin iyon. Malaking kasalanan iyon sa Diyos. Buhayin mo at tulungan mo ang iyong anak para makalabas siya sa mundo ng autismo. Yan ang misyon na ibinigay sa iyo ng Dios.  Ipadama mo sa anak mo ang pagmamahal sa kanya ng Dios. Palakihin mo siya bilang isang mabuting bata and you will contribute to the IMPROVEMENT OF THE HUMAN RACE." 

d.      CHALLENGE: TRATONG PAMILYA. Ngayong Pasko ibigay natin sa bawat isa ang isang tratong kapatid, tratong ka-pamilya, tratong maka-Dios, tratong maka-tao. LET'S COMPLETE THE EQUATION: Minahal tayo ng Dios, it’s time for us to love, respect and show care to one another in the family and in the community. Walang perpektong pamilya at community. Let us accept and respect one another. Let us help one another in spite of our human shortcomings. Ang karangalan ng isa ay karangalan nating lahat. Ang kahihiyan ng isa ay damay tayong lahat. Mayroon ka bang matandang magulang na maysakit? Ipadama mo sa kanya ang iyong pagmamahal. May kapatid kabang hindi sinuwerte sa buhay? Bigyan mo siya ng isang cavan na bigas ngayong Pasko o papag-aralin mo ang isa sa mga anak niya. May manugang ka bang mahirap tanggapin? Ipadama mo na welcome siya sa pamilya. May biyenan ka bang mahirap pakisamahan? Ituring mo siyang tunay na magulang. Sana everybody in the family will feel counted and accepted this coming CHRISTmas. Amen!
