Thank God, It's Faith
DISCLAIMER: We don't know exactly where we're going with this. Or where we're supposed to go from here. Or whether it was even right to have started. Along with our worries, our fears, and our doubts we'll continue to move forward. For in and beyond all our questions, what we know for sure is that faith called us here. All we're doing is answering back 🙌
Mind over matter? Yes.
Faith over mind? Definitely.
For there are more things in life that can be overcome, not by logic but with faith.
From our Spirit to yours, whoever needs to read this message: you have every right to feel the feelings you have in your current season. Get poured from the storm, bask in the sunshine. Those too shall pass and we'll welcome another season. We pray that you respect the process of growth you are in.
We are in the same boat. We're with you. And guess what?
God is with us too. ❤️
Accept and then surrender everything to Him. 🙌

SurrenderMyThoughts
QUESTION: At the end of your life - at the final sentence of your story - what do you want to find with you? Anong experiences, sinu-sinong mga tao, anu-anong mga bagay, saang trabaho mo gusto mahanap sarili mo? Here we go. We're starting a new chapter once again! This time, only two remain. Just amazed by the #StayingPower that the Spirit has blessed both of us with. Yes, we may NOT know exactly what we're doing; all the more where we're going with all this #extra. But we know that this bestfriendhip is one heck of a blessing! - For here abounds the overflowing graces of God. In this episode we recognize the empty vessels we both are. Vessels made clean, all for the glory of God. Be blessed.
Bakit yung ibang bagay nakikita mo kung kelan hindi mo hinahanap....
Prime example? Nailcutter! HAHAHA
Applicable na po ba ito to e-ve-ry-thi-ng?
Proverbs 8:17 "I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me."
In this podcast episode, we spiral back to these "tagos-puso mahirap sagutin" na questions:
Ano ang buhay para sa'yo? What is your life's purpose?
What is life, but a collection of small steps forward; all but a journey.
Success does not come from individuals who do nothing to help themselves grow.
In fulfilling our life purpose, we may be called to proactively chase discomfort, to do things afraid, and to just keep on keeping on.
--- We find life's meaning by taking one small step at a time, patiently, and in loving obedience and respect to the will of God.
Jeremiah 29:13 "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."
God bless this seeking heart.
"Paano nga ba hahanapin ang mga bagay na nawala?"
Paano ko nga ba hahanapin ang sarili kong parating nawawala? Nawawala dahil nalulunod sa sarili kong mga expectations of the future at binabaon ng mga disappointments ko from the past.
Kadalasan, parang walang ibang choice maliban sa isa; tumakas.
Takas papunta sa isang daan na walang problema.
Takas papunta sa isang daan na walang responsibilidad.
Takas papunta sa isang daan na wala Siya.
Pero gaano man ako paulit-ulit na nawawala, paulit-ulit na tumatakbo palayo sa kanya, lagi't laging paglingon ko ayun, andiyan siya, tumatakbo papunta sa akin para ibalik ako sa Kanya.
Lord, salamat at never mo akong pinabayaan. Never kang napagod sa paghanap sa akin. In my imprfection I cannot promise to not run. But I will not run too far away where you can't bring me back.
Ngayon, kadalasan, wala na kasi akong ibang choice maliban sa isa; magpahanap sa'Yo.
Podcast debut ni new member Chelsea Teng and ang ganda na kaagad ng topic!!! Nakaka-excite nga talaga magpatuloy 😍😍😍
In this faith call, we reflect upon the values we aim and hope for Thank God, It's Faith to add within this community. We also get to embrace how this platform had consistently inspired the growth of our relationship with God, thus far! :)
And as Thank God, It's Faith seeks to be more intentional in fulfilling its seemingly unclear yet Spirit-driven purpose, we humbly gave ourselves permission to dream some more! We've set ourselves free to wonder and muse upon possibilities by which this platform may be used, in humble service to God.
We don't know exactly where we're going with this. Or where we're supposed to go from here. Or whether it was even right to have started. Along with our worries, our fears, and our doubts we'll continue to move forward. For in and beyond all our questions, what we know for sure is that faith called us here. All we're doing is answering back.
Thank you in advance for answering this faith call!
As always you're very welcome to listen in and if you're being urged by the Spirit to do so, do share with us your stories as well! Comment, message~ game kami to converse with you as well!
With you in creating more space for the Spirit,
Riana, Jezza, Lei <3

"Bloom where you are planted." What have you been planting in your heart? What are you growing?
In these troubling times, there are still a lot of blessings to hope and be grateful for. It may seem that we have been given rocks for soil; but Him, our "tubig ng buhay" shall always let our land be fruitful.
There's something breaking away from the our barren and dry land. Let's continue to keep our faith -- planted, raised, and nurtured!
P.S. We believe the current worldwide pandemic may be one of the jarring moments. As much as it is tempting to give in to fear, let us keep our faith, surrender fully to God, and pray for healing. Guys! Come on, with Him, everything is possible ☝️❤️🙌

"Has there been any point in your life when faith was the only thing you could turn to? For strength, for hope, for answers?"
To that, our answer is a full resounding yes. In this Faith Call, we talked about moments that brought us down and faith arriving to extend its hand to help us stand back up. Take the whole ride of our usual mix of iyak, tawa, at mga pagmumuni-muni! We'll be waiting to hear about your stories as well. We love you, we appreciate you, and we're praying for you always.

"As Jesus was walking on from there he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office, and he said to him, 'Follow me.' And he got up and followed him. Now while he was at table in the house it happened that a number of tax collectors and sinners came to sit at the table with Jesus and his disciples. When the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, 'Why does your master eat with tax collectors and sinners?' When he heard this he replied, 'It is not the healthy who need the doctor, but the sick. Go and learn the meaning of the words: Mercy is what pleases me, not sacrifice. And indeed I came to call not the upright, but sinners.'" - Matthew 9: 9-13 Like Matthew, we are sinners. Like Matthew we have been called. Like Matthew, we're choosing to shed ourselves with a new life with Christ. We move forward with our purpose accepting that it was never our job to uplift. It is just our role to be a bridge, an instrument, so that Jesus can work in as many lives as we can reach, with as much effort as He is working in ours.
Minsan may mga bagay lang talaga na hindi tumutugma sa plano. Pero kadalasan iyon 'yung mga pangyayaring hindi inaasahang magbibigay ng mas magandang resulta. We didn't intend to answer the planned question for this episode, "What is your personal mission?" Pero baka lang, baka lang naman, just by having this episode up today, we've answered it anyway: "Patuloy lang." That's probably what God is sending us out to do. Not only us three but you and everyone as well. Kahit na saang season tayo ng buhay; gaano man kabilis o katagal masagot prayers natin, gaano man kasaya o kasakit ang mga pangyayari, gaano man kameron o kawala, God has planned something better for us. Way way waaaay better than what we can ever imagine. Kaya patuloy lang~ Patuloy lang tayo <3 Glad to have you with us in this faith journey.

Love ❤️ Life 🌿 Learnings ✨
In this faith call, our conversation was centered on going back to the love stories we've kept in the recesses of our hearts. We shared what we've learned. We reflected on how we've grown. And above all, we made sure where God goes in all of that.
As we've shared our own, we can't help but hope to hear your stories as well. Tara, usapang love life tayo! 😊
In everything, may we all measure our lives in love ❤️

Considering the time difference, the possibility of work overloading our schedules, and the amount of effort we need to keep this afloat: we can't help but fear.
We have doubts, yet we're hopeful. We're scared but we have faith. We're walking on a cliff road but right before we step to fall, God provides another brick for us to continue forward. So we're here, taking one step forward everyday. Patuloy lang tayo!!! ❤️
ThankGodItsFaith #TGIBeginningJanuary #BeginningMovingForward
Hello there! You are very welcome to listen in to another masabaw-sabaw pero malalim-lalim journal conversations with us three! In this podcast, we talk about what traps us and hinders us from truly setting our eyes on where we are in the process of growth and the today of our lives. <3 We pray that some tidbits of what we share are relatable to you and can inspire you to grow with us as well. From are Holy Spirit-led hearts to you, here is Episode 2 of TGIF Admin Podcast! #ThankGodItsFaith #TGIBeginningJanuary #BeginningFocusOnToday
Hello!
We're Thank God, It's Faith. 😇
We are a team of three women (cousins!!!) who believe building a business founded on and for faith is something we need today. To "live out your faith" is a calling every follower of Jesus knows and have often heard; but we end up asking, "How do we do it?"
In the attempt to answer the question in our own life journeys, we decided to take a leap and start this community. Without not much else - no business degree, no prior knowledge about start ups, no specific experience about putting up a business - but faith, we started our operations April of last year 2019.
"Thanking God after receiving a blessing is called respect. Thanking God even before the blessing arrives is called faith." Following that thought, our definition of living out our faith became a matter of maintaining a constant expression of gratitude through everything - through any rough path, problem, or let downs we thank God because believing that our blessings lie beyond our challenge is faith.
We pray that our posts always allow the Holy Spirit to speak to open and renew your heart. We hope that our products accompany you in your every season and remind you the strength faith is capable of. We hope that this thing we're doing, a proof of our faith, be able to inspire you to begin your journey to live your faith out as well.
Always remember that in whatever you're going through now, thank God. For in and beyond where you are, blessings upon blessings are prepared for you to claim.
Join us as we journey through this new year with faith, with God.
