It’s thrilling to think that Zham and I will be given a
chance to speak in front of young people about our inspiring (well, many said
that) and God centered love story.
Way before when I was still single, I only used to talk in
front of people during photography workshops.
Zham is with me, but we were in a group.
And now, it’s really funny to think that I’ll be a guest speaker with
him—as his wife.
It was KKB (Kristiyanong Kabataan Para sa Bayan) – Pasay Chapter’s
annual seminar for Love, Courtship, Dating and Marriage with the theme: True Love Waits: Maybe Someday, focusing also on “Genuine Love
Exposed”. The event was graced by 200
plus young people from all over Pasay.
Oh, the good old days! I thank
God because I had the opportunity to serve Him during my teenage years. It was inspiring to see that these young
people are doing the same thing.
2 Timothy 2:22 says, “Flee the evil desires of youth and
pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the
Lord out of a pure heart.”
Let me share with you guys that slides that we used containing
our teaching yesterday.
The second part was the question and answer portion. We were asked some queries coming from the
audience. One question that I clearly
remembered (though not in exact words) was, “Paano ireject ang isang manliligaw
nang hindi siya masasaktan? (How will you turn down a suitor without causing
him so much hurt?” I shared what I did
during my high school years (the wrong way to turn down a suitor), and told the
audience not to do that, LOL! But I
plainly said, just say it honestly. He
will be in pain all the more if you will just lead him on then at the end, he’ll
realize that you don’t like him back.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the people
behind True Love Waits—the leadership of KKB Pasay (headed by Glaiza Dimapilis), Pastora
Beng Magallanes (thank you for the awesome kwentuhan after the event!), and for
the rest of the young people of KKB Pasay, we hope that we were able to inspire
you to wait for God’s perfect timing for true love to come your way. Just think of true love as a triangle, you on
one side, “The Right One (TRO)” on the other side, and GOD on the center. As you and TRO draw closer and closer to God
and delight yourselves in Him, He will give the desires of your heart, even on
the way that is beyond more kilig and blessed than the mushiest love story that
you can ever think of!
And by the way, let me share to you the token that was given to us. We appreciate it! Thanks again KKB Pasay!
