When Andrea Brillantes said :
“Kaya nga ako nag-church kasi hindi ako perfect.”
Most often ang dami kasing may maling akala sa Christianity at pagsisimba.The world often expects that once you step inside a church, dapat automatic na mabait ka, perfect, at hindi na nagkakamali. Kapag nakita nilang nag-struggle ka or may nagawang sablay, ang bilis ng batikos: “Nagsisimba pa naman, pero ganyan ang ugali.”
Pero ito ang totoo, We don’t go to church because we are good. We go to church because we need God.
The church was never meant to be a museum for displayed saints; it is meant to be a hospital for sinners. Sabi nga mismo ni Jesus sa Bible
It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” (Mark 2:17)
Kaya tayo lumalapit kay Lord hindi para ipagmalaking “buo” tayo, kundi para aminin na broken tayo at kailangan natin ng healing at tulong Niya. We are all works in progress. We are all patients under the care of the Great Physician.
Kaya sa susunod na makakita tayo ng taong nagsisimba pero nagkakamali pa rin, let’s extend grace instead of judgment. Pare-pareho lang tayong may sakit na pinagagaling ng grasya ng Diyos.
