Tungkol Saan nga Ba ang Pasko?
Ni: John B. Juat
Mga kapatid, tungkol nga ba saan ang Pasko?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa pagdating ni Santa na maghahatid ng regalo?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa mga batang nanghihingi ng Aguinaldo?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa masasarap na bibingka't puto?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa mga kumikislap na ilaw sa bawat kanto?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa mga dami ng nakahandang pagkaing magarbo?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa karoling ng mga iba't ibang grupo?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa pagbili at pagbigay mo ng pamasko?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa simbang gabi na siyang pilit ikumpleto?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa pagtipon nina tito't tita,ninong at ninang,lola't lolo?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa dami ng regalong matatanggap mo?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa bonus at dagdag na perang natatanggap sa trabaho?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa bakasyon sa eskwelahang ilang linggo?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa mga kaliwa't kanang selebrasyong marami ang dumadalo?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa ating ginagawang mga sakripisyo?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa mga palamuting nakasabit sa puno?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa mga parol na siyang kita sa malayo?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa kabutihang nagpapataba ng ating puso?
Ito ba'y tungkol sa pagpunta sa mga pamilihan na punong puno?
Lahat ng mga ito'y hindi maling gawain kapag panahon ng Pasko
Karamihan dito ay kaugalian natin bilang mga Pilipino
Ngunit lahat ng ito ay hindi bumubuo
Sa tunay na halaga ng selebrasyon ng Pasko
Dahil ang pinakamahalaga sa lahat ay ang pagsilang ni Kristo
Di lamang pag-alala sa nangyari nung unang Pasko...
Ngunit ang kanyang pagsilang muli sa ating isipan at puso

MERCY AND COMPASSION
MERCY AND COMPASSION
by: John Juat
Do you ever feel down, depressed and lonely?
Is your heart filled with heaviness and anxiety?
Are you discouraged by the sins you do repetitively?
Then it's about time you reflect on God's mercy
Recall once again the poor woman caught it adultery
Jesus came to her side and treated her with mercy
Instead of being stoned, Jesus forgave her completely
It is truly great to ponder on this mystery
Let us also take advantage of Jesus' love for humanity
By loving and going to Confession frequently
For in every time we confess our sins sincerely
We are embraced by Jesus, forgiven and accepted wholeheartedly
How then do we minister to the weak and the needy?
The abandoned, the sick, the poor and the lonely
Console them, spend time with them and see their dignity
For in the eyes of our Lord Jesus, we are but one family
Let us obey Jesus' words on how to show mercy
By clothing the naked and feeding the hungry
Visiting the sick and imprisoned, showing them charity
For whatsoever you do to the least, you do to Me
Let us show love to the last, least and lost of society
By empathizing with them, by entering into their misery
No matter how little we think we have, choose to give freely
Without seeking anything in return, and in humility
