May nakita ka na bang pader na may "BAWAL MAGTAPON NG BASURA DITO"?
Tapos dun pa may tambak ng basura. Maybe we don't know how to read. Or we just hate following a simple rule.
We find it hard to follow. Jesus, in today's Gospel, gives us a new commandment - "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; even as I have loved you, that you also love one another" (John 13:34)
Wait, love one another? Paano iyong mga un-loveable? Ang hirap naman.
"Dura lex sed lex" is a Latin phrase that means "the law is is hard, but it is the law". The law of God calls us to LOVE. No matter how difficult it is. Sabi ni Saint Thomas Aquinas "ang batas ay ang kautusan ng katuwiran na ginawa upang makamit ang kabutihang panlahat." Loving is not about us. It's about God & others. Following the law is for the greater good. Always be loving even if it becomes un-comfortable. John 15:13 says thay "Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
So always choose to, LOVE instead of hate, PEACE over conflict, TO UNDERSTAND before judging & TO CARE FOR OTHERS before our own concerns.
Before you say or post something bad about someone remember what the sign says - "BAWAL MAGTAPON NG BASURA DITO". Garbage like hate, bitterness, envy, lust & negativity have no place in your life.
Always follow the law. Follow God. Follow His commandments no matter how difficult they are. Have blessed week! - alvinfabella@yahoo.com
