Facing the giants is a great movie, it shows the turning you life to God and having faith on Him makes no boundaries on anything. Miracles are made not just by admitting your defeat, like the grandfather said in the movie "if you only admit your defeat, then that's all you're going to get." This movie has told me, to believe and not lose faith even at the time where i would think there's no hope. Like coach Taylor did, even he had an underdog team he still believed in the, and that's where the impossible happen when they won the football championship. I want to apply this quotation from the movie to everyone, coach Taylor asked the guy who read him a verse from the bible if he believed in miracles, the guy said "I have story about that, There are two farmers praying for the rain, but only one farmer prepared his rice field for it. So who's rice field you think God's going to give the rain? Coach Taylor said "the one who prepared his rice field." Then the guy said "That's right, so you want to receive God's miracle, you better be prepared coach." So for those who think they don't have hope anymore, watch this movie cause its very useful. Miracles can come in many ways, you just have to prepare for it. No matter what, don't lose your faith to God, cause His faith on you doesn't. This movie can serve as your guide or inspiration. Even though all hopes are gone, you have nothing to lose, its never too late to try one more

    Like anything in life, faith starts out for most as a journey. Often growth in faith is so gradual it is hardly noticeable. There’s no thundering voice of God striking down the disbelievers, but rather small miracles like getting an A on a test with little preparation. It is only self reflection faith grows because of struggles in life. In A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving, John Wheelwright’s faith and his belief in miracles juxtaposes Owen Meany’s innate beliefs. John Irving follows John Wheelwright’s growth in faith and miracles and highlights Owen’s steady support.…

This has taught me to never lose faith and look at the bright side. For example, if I am struggling academically I should never lose my faith, my determination and the drive to keep going.

    All of the qoutations pretty much tells the same message. But for me Rabbi Barry H Block's qoutation most strongly captures the essense of the film. As i read the qoutation ''hope and laughter can bring light into even the darkest corner'' affect me,it is because our country is in the list of poorest countries in the world. We need to work everyday under the sun just to buy food for our families.One thing that i am proud of being filipino is you can't really tell if we have a problem because we are always smiling. One thing that makes every filipino happy is a karaoke machine,there is no family who doesn't have one. I remember when I was still in the Philippines we sing for forever until we get the 100% score and we even sing until dawn. Thats why were proud of Jessica Sanchez 2nd runner up of American Idol because she get to show other people what filipinos got.Even if people don't have any food or money in there we have our neighbours who shares what they have,that is love and were still smile and laugh even though deep inside were not. I focused more on the word ''laughter'' because it is really the best medicine. This response is more on emotional that intelectual because i experienced it before.…
