The Last Pair of Pants

"Come on! Buy me! Buy me!” The light gray pair of pants called out to the elderly man with a cane, who was intently inspecting every clothing that was hung in that corner of Men’s Essentials store.   It was almost dusk, and the pair of pants had been depressed the whole day.   He was just told by his seller that if he won’t be purchased on that day, he would be put on discounted sale.   He never liked to be put on sale because he knew what it means – his value just depreciated. “You’re going to be one splendid pair of slacks! The president of any nation would be glad to wear you!” He remembered his Tailor telling him, as he smoothened every edge of his cloth, and slowly handled the machine to tie up his loose ends.  And oh how he believed his Tailor so much!  He trusted him with his every fiber; that he had been made into a unique and comfortable pair of pants every man would love to wear.  But it’s already a year since he was put on display on Men...

Is Tatay dead?

Why do you leave me with questions? Questions after questions after questions…. The asking is as un-filling as the answers, As though pouring water on a holed cauldron. How can I believe?

Were I to plead for what-ifs and could-have-beens, The pain, the wound, still wouldn’t mend… Much less the thought of future hope, a mere flicker, A leap of faith to unknown’s end. How many more sighs? How many more tears? How many more groans of surrender Uttered b...

God notices the unnoticeable

God is interested and notices small things. What do you have to say about that statement? Well, it may be an unpopular thought, but it’s true! God lays His eyes on the obvious and not so obvious, from the wars and killings between nations to the daily processing of cells in our human body. To know that God takes notice of seemingly insignificant things is such a great comfort for us. We may think we have no value before our families, our friends, or our workmates, but God takes notice of you. Psalm 139 is just one of the many assurances that God delights in every detail of you, and He sees you as wonderfully made. In fact, it was He who made you. And to know that God takes notice of you is to have hope in every life-situation. Whether it’s a family conflict, broken relationship, personal insecurities, or unmet expectations, God is feeling what you’re feeling, because He cares for you. And if you just turn to Him, call out to Him, place your faith and trust in Him, you will tru...
