Family Seasons Lesson 4, April 27 When Alone Kapag Nag-iisa

When Alone Key Text Genesis 2:18 nkjv “And the Lord God said, ‘It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.’ ” Susing Talata. “At sinabi ng Panginoong Diyos, ‘Hindi mabuti na ang lalaki ay nag-iisa; siya’y igagawa ko ng isang katuwang na nababagay sa kanya’ ” (Genesis 2:18).

When Alone Initial Words From the start, we as human beings were not meant to be alone. From Eden onward, we were to live in fellowship with other human beings to some degree or another. We will look at the question of companionship and loneliness at the various times of life that, perhaps, all of us have at some time faced. Panimulang Salita. Mula sa simula, tayo bilang mga tao ay hindi nilayon na maging nag-iisa. Mula sa Eden patuloy, tayo’y mamumuhay sa pagsasama-sama sa ibang tao sa ilang antas o iba pa. ¶ Titingnan natin ang isyu ng pagsasama at kalungkutan sa iba’t ibang panahon ng buhay na, marahil, lahat tayo’y napaharap sa ilang panahon.

1. Alone: Is Unmarried (1 Corinthians 7:25-34) When Alone Quick Look 1. Alone: Is Unmarried (1 Corinthians 7:25-34) 2. Alone: Marriage Ended (Matthew 5:31, 32) 3. Alone: Spiritually Single (Hosea 2:19, 20) 1. Nag-iisa: Walang Asawa (1 Corinto 7:25-34) 2. Nag-iisa: Pag-aasawa’y Nagwakas (Mateo 5:31, 32) 3. Nag-iisa: Nagsosolo sa Espirituwal (Hoseas 2:19, 20)

When Alone 1. Alone: Is Unmarried 1 Corinthians 7:25-34 nlt “Now regarding your question about the young women who are not yet married. ... Because of the present crisis, I think it is best to remain as you are. ... [A] woman who...has never been married can be devoted to the Lord and holy in body and in spirit.” 1. Nag-iisa: Walang Asawa. “Ngayon, tungkol sa mga dalaga.... Sa palagay ko, dahil sa kasalukuyang kagipitan, makakabuti sa isang tao ang manatili sa kanyang kalagayan. ... ¶ Ang babaeng walang asawa ay nagsusumikap sa mga bagay para sa Panginoon upang siya ay maging banal, kapwa ang kaniyang katawan at ang kaniyang espiritu” (1 Corinto 7:25-34).

How much more, then, do the rest of us. Alone: Is Unmarried Companionship As Christians we have the reality of being able to fellowship with God. But the close- ness of God to Adam didn’t stop the Lord from saying, “ ‘It is not good that man should alone’ ”(Gen. 2:18). God knew that Adam, even when he had fellowship with God in a world undamaged by sin, still needed human companionship. How much more, then, do the rest of us. Pagsasama. Bilang mga Kristiyano tayo’y mayroong realidad ng kakayahan ng pakikipag-isa sa Diyos. Ngunit ang pagiging malapit ng Diyos kay Adan ay hindi pumigil sa Panginoon mula sa pagsasabing, “ ‘Hindi mabuti na ang lalaki ay nag-iisa’ ” (Genesis 2:18). Alam ng Diyos na si Adan, kahit nang mayroon siyang pagkikipag-isa sa Diyos sa isang sanlibutang hindi nasira ng kasalanan, ay nananatili pa ring nangangailangan ng pagsasama ng tao. ¶ Gaano pang mas higit, kung gayon, ang iba sa atin.

Alone: Is Unmarried Companionship We need to be careful, too, of assuming that just because there are a lot of people around, a person cannot be lonely. Some of the loneliest people live in big cities where they often have interaction with others. Just being around other bodies doesn’t mean someone cannot feel alone and alienated and in need of fellowship. Kailangan din nating maging maingat sa pagpapalagay na dahil lang sa marami ang nakapalibot na tao, ang isang tao ay hindi magiging malungkot. Ilan sa pinakamalulungkot na tao ay nakatira sa malalaking lunsod kung saan sila’y madalas na nakikisalamuha sa iba. ¶ Hindi nangangahulugang hindi ka makadaramang nag-iisa at napapalayo at nangangailangan ng pagsasama-sama dahil lamang nasa marami kang grupo ng tao.

Jesus Christ, the greatest example of all. Alone: Is Unmarried Celibate Life Jesus Christ, the greatest example of all. Jeremiah was told not to marry (Jer. 16:1-3). Ezekiel’s wife died suddenly (Ezek. 24:15-18). Hosea experienced a broken marriage (Hosea 1–3). Buhay na Walang Asawa. Si Jesu-Cristo, ang pinakadakilang halimbawa sa lahat. ¶ Si Jeremias ay sinabihang huwag mag-asawa (Jeremias 16:1-3). ¶ Ang misis ni Ezekiel ay biglang namatay (Ezekiel 24:15-18). ¶ Si Hoseas ay nakaranas ng isang nasirang pag-aasawahan (Hoseas 1–3).

Alone: Is Unmarried Celibate Life In these examples, marital status was not an issue. God was interested in the person’s integrity, obedience, and ability to say what God wanted him to say. We need to be sure that our life is not defined by our marital condition. Many voices today will tell us that unless we are married we are not complete. Sa mga halimbawang ito, ang katayuang may asawa ay hindi isang isyu. Interesado ang Diyos sa integridad, pagsunod ng isang tao at ang kanyang kakayahang sabihin ang gusto ng Diyos na kanyang sasabihin. Kailangan nating matiyak na ang ating buhay ay hindi natatakdaan ng ating katayuang pangmag-asawa. ¶ Maraming boses ngayon ang sasabihin sa atin na malibang tayo’y may-asawa ay hindi tayo kumpleto.

and whoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery. When Alone 2. Alone: Marriage Ended Matthew 5:31, 32 nkjv “It has been said, ‘Whoever divorces his wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ But I say to you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except sexual immorality causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is divorced commits adultery. 2. Nag-iisa: Pag-aasawa’y Nagwakas. “Sinabi rin naman, ‘Sinumang makipaghiwalay sa kanyang asawang babae, dapat niyang bigyan ito ng kasulatan ng paghihiwalay.’ Ngunit sinasabi ko sa inyo, na ang bawat nakikipaghiwalay sa kanyang asawang babae maliban sa pakikiapid, ay nagtutulak sa kanya sa pakikiapid; ¶ at ang sinumang mag-asawa sa babaing hiniwalayan ay nagkakasala ng pangangalunya (Mateo 5:31, 32).

People going through this terrible experience run a gamut of emotions: 2. Alone: Marriage Ended By Divorce Outside of death, one of the hardest things a family can face is a divorce. People going through this terrible experience run a gamut of emotions: Grief Fear Depression Anger Loneliness Sa Pamamagitan ng Diborsyo. Sa dako pa roon ng kamatayan, isa sa pinakamahirap na haharapin ng isang pamilya ay ang isang diborsyo. ¶ Ang mga taong binabata itong matinding karanasan ay dumaranas ng isang buong sakop na mga emosyon: ¶ Dalamhati, Takot, Depresyon, Galit, Lungkot.

2. Alone: Marriage Ended By Divorce (The SDA Church Manual 161) “The Church as a redemptive agency of Christ is to minister to its members in all of their needs and to nurture everyone so that all may grow into a mature Christian experience. This is particularly true when members face lifelong decisions such as marriage and distressful experiences such as divorce. “Ang Iglesya bilang isang ahensya ng pagtubos ni Cristo ay paglilingkuran ang mga kaanib nito sa lahat ng kanilang pangangailangan at aalagaan ang bawat isa upang ang lahat ay lumago sa isang hinog na karanasang Kristiyano. ¶ Ito’y lalo pang totoo kapag ang mga kaanib ay humaharap sa habambuhay na mga desisyon gaya ng pag-aasawa at mga nakalulungkot na karanasang gaya ng diborsyo.

2. Alone: Marriage Ended By Divorce (The SDA Church Manual 161) “When a couple’s marriage is in danger of breaking down, every effort should be made by the partners and those in the church or family who minister to them to bring about their reconciliation in harmony with divine principles for restoring wounded relationships (Hosea 3:1–3; 1 Cor. 7: 10, 11; 13:4–7; Gal. 6:1). “Kapag ang pag-aasawahan ng dalawa ay nasa panganib ng pagkasira, lahat ng pagsisikap ay dapat gawin ng magkapartner at yung nasa iglesya o pamilya na maglilingkod sa kanila upang papangyarihin ang kanilang pagkakasundo sa pagkakatugma sa makalangit na prinsipyo para sa pagsasauli nang nasugatang relasyon (Hosea 3:1-3; 1 Corinto 7:10, 11; 13:4-7; Galacia 6:1).

(1) programs of orientation for couples engaged to be married, 2. Alone: Marriage Ended By Divorce (The SDA Church Manual 161) “Resources that can be of assistance members in the development of a strong Christian home are available.... (1) programs of orientation for couples engaged to be married, (2) programs of instruction for married couples with their families, and (3) programs of support for broken families and divorced individuals.” “Ang mga pagkukunan na maaaring makatulong sa mga kaanib sa pagpapaunlad ng isang malakas na Kristiyanong tahanan ay nakahanda.... ¶ (1) mga program ng pagtuturo para sa dalawang ikakasal, ¶ (2) mga program ng tagubilin para sa dalawang kasal kasama ang kanilang pamilya, at ¶ (3) mga program ng suporta para sa mga nasirang pamilya at nagdiborsyong indibiduwal.”

2. Alone: Marriage Ended By Death We face the reality of the death of others, of loved ones, of maybe our closest companion. Sooner or later, many of us will face a time, a season, of loneliness brought about by the death of someone else. It’s hard, it hurts, and at such times we can, and often must, just claim the promises of God. Sa Pamamagitan ng Kamatayan. Humaharap tayo sa realidad ng kamatayan ng iba, ng mga minamahal, ng pinakamalapit nating kasama. Sa malao’t madali, marami sa atin ang haharap sa isang oras at isang panahon, ng kalungkutan na likha ng kamatayan ng iba pa. ¶ Mahirap ito, masakit ito, at sa ganung pagkakataon maaari, at kadnalasang kailangan nating angkinin ang mga pangako ng Diyos.

When Alone 3. Alone: Spiritually Single Hosea 2:19, 20 nkjv “I will betroth you to Me forever; yes, I will betroth you to Me in righteousness and justice, in lovingkindness and mercy; I will betroth you to Me in faithful- ness, and you shall know the Lord.” 3. Nag-iisa: Nagsosolo sa Espirituwal. “At gagawin kitang asawa ko magpakailanman; gagawin kitang asawa ko sa katuwiran at sa katarungan, sa tapat na pag-ibig at sa kaawaan. ¶ Gagawin kitang asawa ko sa katapatan; at makikilala mo ang Panginoon” (Hoseas 2:19, 20).

3. Spiritually Alone Differs In Spouse’s Faith Natalie, married for seven years, atten-ded an evangelistic series at a local SDA church. Despite the strenuous objections of her husband, parents, in-laws, Natalie joined the SDAChurch. For years now, she has been struggling to live a life of faith. Though married, she is what we could call “spiritually single.” Naiiba sa Pananampalata ng Asawa. Si Natalie, kasal ng pitong taon, ay dumalo sa isang serye ng pangangaral sa isang lokal na iglesyang Adventista, Sa kabila nang mabibigat na pagtutol ng kanyang mister, magulang, biyanan, umanib si Natalie sa Iglesya Adventista. ¶ Mga taon na ngayon, nakipagpunyagi siya na mamuhay ng isang buhay ng pananampalataya. Bagaman may asawa, siya ay matatawag nating ‘nagsosolo sa espiritu.’

They may have married a person of a different faith. 3. Spiritually Alone Differs In Spouse’s Faith There are “Natalies” in our church. These are married but attend church alone or only with their children. They may have married a person of a different faith. Or when they joined the church, their spouse did not. Or one dropped out, stopped coming and might even be hostile to the faith. May mga “Natalie” sa ating iglesya, Ang mga ito’y may asawa ngunit dumadalo sa iglesya na mag-isa o kasama lamang ang kanilang mga anak. ¶ Maaaring ang napangasawa nila ay isa na may ibang pananampalataya. ¶ O nang sila’y umanib sa iglesya, ang kanilang asawa’y hindi. ¶ O ang isa ay umalis, tumigil sa pagdalo at maaari pa ngang kontra sa pananampalataya.

3. Spiritually Alone Differs In Spouse’s Faith These come alone to church and to the meal after the worship service or go alone to the outreach or social activities of the church. They are saddened when they cannot contribute financially to the church’s ministry as much as they would like because their spouse does not agree to do so. Though married, they might feel spiritually like a widow or a widower. Ang mga ito’y dumarating na mag-isa sa iglesya at sa potluck pagkatapos ng pagsamba o nagpupuntang mag-isa sa pag-abot or mga gawaing sosyal ng iglesya. Nalulungkot sila kapag hindi sila makapagbigay ng pera sa ministri ng iglesya nang gaya nang gusto nila dahil hindi sumasang-ayon ang kanilang asawa para gawin iyon. Bagaman may asawa, pakiramdam nila’y gaya ng isang biyuda o biyudo sa espiritu.

When Alone Final Words Many face a solitude they don’t ask for. They don’t want to be alone. We can always have a joyful communion with the Lord, but sometimes we crave human companionship and fellowship. Be ready to reach out to those who might be sitting right next to us on Sabbath each week, yet who are going through a terrible season of loneliness. Huling Pananalita. Marami ang humaharap sa isang pag-iisa na hindi nila hinihingi. Ayaw nilang maging nag-iisa. Maaari tayong palaging may nakagagalak na pakikipag-usap sa Panginoon, subalit kung minsan ay nananabik tayo sa pagsasama at pagsasama-sama. ¶ Maging handa na magpaabot sa mga maaaring nakaupong katabi natin sa Sabbath sa bawat sanlinggo, gayun man ay dumaranas ng isang matinding panahon ng kalungkutan.
