One day, while I'm fixing my stuffs in my room and i found out a piece of paper with a poem. I saw the title "Buhay Parokya", then it catched attention. and started reading it..
Buhay PAROKYA
(By: Fr.Julius L. Belen)
Sa Unang tingin pa lamang
mukhang mahirap maunawaan
subalit kapag ito'y naranasan
tiyak na iyong magugustuhan.
Pag lilingkod sa kapwa-tao
ang itinitibok ng abang puso
pagsunod sa kalooban ng diyos
dito lamang tunay na matatalos.
Kung minsa'y napakahirap
mga pagsubok na hinaharap
subalit diyos ang lumilingap
katugunan sa mga hinahanap-hanap.
Pagod man ang katawan
patang-pata ang isipan
lahat ng ito'y wala ano pa man
sa naghihintay sa kalangitan.
O diyos na makapangyarihan
kami po'y laging tunghayan
palakasin sa mga kahinaan
ituwid sa mga alinglangan.
Tapat na paglilingkod alay sa iyo
wala ng hinahanap ang aking espirito
kungdi ang makamit ka o diyos ko
paglipas ng buhay ko sa mundo.
It reminds me those time that i still lived in the parish. Almost seven years in my life was spended there, where i am a sacristan and the same time, parish bookkeeper, driver, and janitor and also a student by that time... may be you will say how could i make those all task perhaps you might say "ang yabang ko naman", syempre di naman talaga sabay-sabay lahat nyan. Even I, I can't imagined how could I make it... but because im serving god, i do believed that there's nothing imposible to him... before i start my work , i asked his blessings and guidance, every thing will work smoohtly.
And if I have given a chance to live in the parish again, i would not think twice I grabbed it. because i know it makes me happy and in this way, i can serve god and perhaps fulfill my mission here on earth...
