You are who you are for a reason...

Sa pagbabasa ko ng aklat na "The Purpose Driven Life" ni Rick Warren ay napakarami kong mga natututunan na magagandang mga aral tungkol sa buhay. Sa isa sa mga chapters ng libro ay napukaw ang aking atensyon ng tulang ito:



You are who you are for a reason
by: Russell Kelfer

You are who you are for a reason.
You're part of an intricate plan.
You're a precious and perfect unique design,
Called God's special woman or man.

You look like you look for a reason.
Our God made no mistake.
He knit you together within the womb.
You're just what He wanted to make.

The parents you had were the ones He chose,
And no matter how you may feel,
They were custom-designed with God's plan in mind,
And they bear the Master's seal.

No, that trauma you faced was not easy.
And God wept that it hurt you so;
But it was allowed to shape your heart
So that into His likeness you'd grow.

You are who you are for a reason,
You've been formed by the Master's rod.
You are who you are, beloved,
Because there is a God!


  • Ayon sa tula, ikaw ay hindi isang aksidente. Hindi isang aksidente kung bakit ka naririto at nananatili sa mundo. Ang iyong kapanganakan ay hindi isang pagkakamali ng kalikasan. Hindi ka man plinano ng iyong mga magulang, ngunit ang Panginoong Diyos, oo. Hindi siya nasorpresa sa iyong pagsilang, bagkus ay inaasahan na Niya ito. Hindi isang coincidence kung bakit ka humihinga sa mga oras na ito. Ikaw ay nabubuhay dahil nilikha ka ng Panginoong Diyos.
  • God never does anything accidentally, and he never makes mistakes. He has a reason for everything he creates. Every plant and every animal was planned by God, and every person was designed with a purpose in mind.
  • You were created as a special object of God's love. God made you so he could love you.

  8. Nabasa ko na tong libro na to.
    But I believe may panahong kailangan mong mare-learn kung anu ung minsang natutunan mo na. simultaneous kasi ang mga bagyo sa buhay, na minsan nakakabitaw ka sa pagkakapit mo.

    i think I need to reread this book again.
    thanks for posting..
