PART 1Hello friends, kumusta? Kung medyo stressed out or not feeling good kayo, let Life in a Minute will set you up in a better mood, I’m Emily.
“Street kids”, what do you feel pag nakikita mo sila? Naiinis, nandidiri o naawa at gusto mo silang tulungan? Maraming ganito, yung iba 3 years old palang, pagala-gala na, namamalimos o kaya naman natutulog sa kalye at bangketa. Minsan tuloy di mo maiwasang isipin kung bakit nagkaganito yung buhay nila or nasan kaya yung mga magulang nila. Paano ba natin sila pwedeng tulungan? Friend, it might be new to you, pero alam mo bang sa isang banda, para rin tayong mga street kids? Mamaya sasabihin ko sa inyo kung bakit.
….when Life in a minute returns, dito pa rin sa nag-iisang Big Sound.
PART 2
Hello again, Emily pa rin po sa continuation ng Life in a Minute, here on Big Sound.
I have some friends who tried helping street kids, nagbibigay ng pagkain, damit, scholarships, at meron din talagang nag-aampon. But you know, kahit pala well provided sila, marami pa rin sa mga street kids ang mas gusto sa lansangan. Iba raw kasi ang freedom nila doon. Gusto lagi nilang balikan yung nakasanayan na nila. Diba parang ganon din yung adoption ng Dios sa atin. Gusto Niya na maging maayos tayo, pero pilit pa rin nating binabalikan yung mga ginagawa nating hindi maganda. Buti nalang patient ang Lord.
Meron pa friends, please don’t go away, abangan nyo uli ang Life in a Minute.
PART 3
Okay, Life in a Minute is back, thanks for keeping it right here on Big Sound.
It’s true, minsan para tayong mga street kids, kahit inampon na at gustong bigyan ng mas magandang buhay, bumabalik pa rin tayo sa lansangan. Gusto tayong turuan ng Dios, kahit paulit-ulit tayong nagkakamali. He is so patient, ayaw Nya tayong mapahamak. God wants us to change. Naiintindihan nya tayo, ine-encourage Nya. Hindi Sya judgmental. Lagi Nyang ino-offer ang isang bagong buhay kasama Siya. And God also wants us to treat everyone ng ganito, lalo na yung mga street kids, laging may pag-asa sa kanilang pagbabagong buhay.
