Giving Thanks to God, is an experience that is different
"It is good to give thanks to the LORD, and to sing praises to your name, O Most High:"
- Psalms 92:1
In other people, "Thank you God", "Thanks be to God", Lord, thank you", phrases is what they uttered to their mouth for the blessings that they receive from our Almighty God. For them, saying those phrases satisfies their gratitude to God. But sometimes, uttered words are not that satisfying, sometimes it must have deeds to make it satisfying to whom you offers gratitude.
In the vast land area of Apalit, Pampanga, specifically the land occupied by the place where I might say, real offerings of not a physical thing, but a spiritual thing that surely makes our God be proud and happy, the sacrifice of thanksgiving to God at the ADD Convention Center.
In the midst of those people who offers the sacrifice of thanksgiving, these kind of practices will not start until the time he taught it to them, as he always say, "Thanksgiving to God is a very good things". He is the most sensible, reliable preacher recognized by not only other Filipinos, but by the other people lived on the other side of the earth, his name was Brother Eliseo Soriano, the presiding minister of the MCGI or Members Church of God International together with his vice presiding minister, Brother Daniel Razon.
Last September 27, 28, 29 of the current year. The MCGI members celebrated their 3 days of International thanksgiving to God centralized in Apalit, Pampanga, the ADD's Convention Center together with all of the brethren all over the globe.The experience that you will gain on that event is something different, or in other words, UNSPEAKABLE and UNEXPLAINABLE in terms of the happiness that you surely feel. Happiness for me is defined by that very important occasion, point wherein my soul is fed by the words of God which is its food through Brother Eli and Brother Daniel, and the point where we, the all brethren become one in singing praises to our God that signifies unity. That is why we are called the Body and Christ is our head leading us to salvation and to his Father Almighty and to have the promised eternal life.

Photo walk; A walk to REMEMBER
Everyday we walk, from a distance which we started to step our feet towards us. Sometimes, we walk because we want to place ourselves to the places we want to be with, and also we walk back and forth because we excite our neurons to helps us to think.
But, this time. I, with my fellow classmates at La Verdad Christian College. We walk along the roads of Manila, particularly to the ancient protection built for us to protect from subjugators. (i.e. the Ancient wall of Intramuros).
But before on that particular activity. There are some things that are for me, are surely a thing to be remembered in the cause of its first occurs on me. When I am on the journey contained by a Public Utility Jeep that the destination is to MRT Hi-Way at Quezon Avenue, there is a shocking incident that triggers our blood to circulate rapidly. It is because there is a person who snatched the cellphone of one of the passengers of the said Jeep. That passenger is not that too far from me, there is an interval of somehow three to four passengers from her to me. What he did (the Snatcher) is look like it is easy for him, he easily grab the cellphone of the women and cross the roads of Luzon Ave.
To forget that incident, I use to enjoy myself when we started to walk along the roads of Manila started from our rendezvous point. At first, our head of the said activity, Director Dominic Meily grouped us to the photographers that is with us on that activity under Photoville International.
And the photographer that is grouped with us is Mr. Rodel Lumiares that will guide us to capture moments along the streets.
As stated earlier, we stepped our feet along the barracks of the walls of Intramuros. As we trek on the walls, I suddenly appreciates the history of the Philippines. Because, of the ambiance of that place, is so very historic. Starting from the descriptions of the things along Intramuros, up to the Guards and the vehicles of that particular place of Manila. And also the moments that I captured using the DSLR of Mr. Lumiares. During the point of when I capturing the events, I suddenly think that in any places, there are variety of stories of lives are hidden. For me, Photography is not about taking pictures of anything at anytime, is the medium used to up-bring the hidden stories beyond what the lens of the camera is sighted.
