Mahal mo sya? Madaling sagutin noh? Ng oo, hindi, syempre!

Prove it! I need to know exactly when, how and why you fall in love. Kasi nung nakilala mo sya, di mo
naman sya mahal eh. Pero ngayon, mahal mo sya. I need to know when exactly love happened.
Anung magiging reaction nyo pag sinabihan kayo ng ganito? “Sige nga! Patunayan mo ngang mahal
mo ako.” Paano kayo sasagot?
It’s impossible to prove your love with a statement. We all know that words are never enough.
It doesn’t mean that love isn’t there, mahal mo sya, it’s just that it is much easier to prove it over time.
Let me explain:
You declare “gusto kong pumayat”
Pumunta ka sa gym ngayon, work out ka 8 hrs. tapos tingin ka sa salamin. May nagbago? Wala.
Bukas work out ka ulit sa gym 8 hrs. pagkatapos tingin ka sa salamin. May nagbago? Probably, wala.
So walang nangyari. Di effective. So, you quit. Right?
ORRRRR kung naniniwala ka na ito yung tamang gawin and nag stick ka sa routine every single day.
Di ako sure kung alin sa mga araw nay un pero im definitely sure na pumapayat ka.
Same goes with the relationship. You give her flowers, you ask her for a date, lagi kayo magkausap sa
phone, and then you learned na di pala ikaw yung gusto nya. You quit.
ORRRR if you believe that there’s something there and you commit yourself in the act of courtship, Di
ako sure kung alin sa mga araw nay un pero im definitely sure na nagugustuhan ka na nya.
Same goes with worship, your love to God. You attend church services, you pray hard, you bring
offerings, pero walang nangyayari. Di sinasagot yung prayers mo. You quit.
ORRRR if you trust the Lord with all of your heart, you continue praying, you keep worshiping, you keep
doing what is good, Di ako sure kung alin sa mga araw nay un pero im definitely sure na binebless ka
ni Lord.
The Problem is, we try to prove out love with intensity. Huge efforts. But it’s not always like that.
It’s not about the intensity, It’s about consistency.
Di ka pumayat sa 8 hrs na work out mo sa gym. Pumayat ka sa 30 minutes mong workout every single
day.
Di ka nainlove dahil binigyan ka nya ng malaking teddy bear at bouquet of flowers nung Hearts’ day.
Nainlove ka dahil palagi syang nandyan nakikinig at nakikiramay sayo.
Bibebless ka ni Lord di dahil Suki ka ng Worship Generation Merch. Binebless ka nya kasi sa hiram
man o ginhawa, lungkot o saya, nagdarasal at nagpupuri ka sa kanya.
I’m not saying that Huge efforts and sacrifices are meaningless. Even God asked His Disciples to make
huge sacrifices. What I’m saying is that the accumulation of those little efforts over time matters the
most.
Yes, I still believe in love because it is shown even in small things. Kasi si God, di man natin napapansin
yung mga little things nya, consistent din sya sa atin as mentioned in Deuteronomy chapter 7, verse 9:
“Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to
a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.”
