Facing the Giant

Truthfully, I have to say that I'm not a religion person. Perhaps, this is a reason why i choose to see adult films such as American Pie and Europe Trip rather than Passion of The Christ or Facing The Giant. But, the last film changed my personality so much, though I'm still not religion yet. Hahaha....!!!

This film tells about some mediocre football team.which get average position for several years. On the fifth season, they want to replace their coach. The problem for this coach becomes more complicated because he is also get problems with his financial and he is also sterile. But, these problems change to the overwhelmed blessed since he realizes about God's plan in his life.

The first scenes that I love is the what priest said to give an advice for this Coach, Grant Taylor. The priest took one of chapters in Revelation 3:

"I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name."

Moreover, the priest said that God never gives something to someone who never prepares about this blessing. The parable about one of the farmers who prepares his land to receive rain explained that we not only have to pray but also prepare the blessing from our God.

The second scenes take a scene when they get a lost after win several times in a row. Do you what the coach said:

"We praise God when we win,either praise Him when we loose"

Since that quote, I realized that we must be thankful for everything we get from God. It means that when God don't accept our wish, we should still be thankful for other God's plan-which I'm sure that it will be much better

One of chapter in Matthew 19:26 becomes the ending of this film

"With God, all things are possible"

This quote becomes the peak of his struggle process. Many succesfull that he get, either championship or baby, its all happen because he believes that nothing is impossible in the name of God. 

"It doesn't matter how many times God rejects your wishes,because I believe that God prepares something much better for you. Something that not only makes you happy, but also many people surround you. Just be patient and keep your faith on Him."
