    I think there is a room for GOD in the post-modern world. For God could be theguide of us to keep us strong against other difficulties. His existence is most likely one

    of what we need today. God will be the sign of HOPE to everyone. God helps us seethat life is not only about how we will pain but on how we will feel happiness andpossibly fulfilment. We are facing different problems right now. Not only in our own lives.Not only in our country but in the whole world. Religion is not only about how we followthe church, the first thing we must do and always remember to do is to have FAITH. Tohave faith in God is to believe in HIM, but then we must not abuse him. WE mustremember that what we are living right now is our OWN LIVES. The choice on how wewill live our life is on US, on our own hands. You are the one responsible on what youhave right now in your life. You should bear that in your mind that you have the choiceto do what you want and we shouldnt rely always to GOD.All of us have their own will,and we must know to use it. If you want to achieve your dreams or to have a better life,

    YOU should be the one to do it. Like what other people are saying Nasa DIYOS andAWA, nasa TAO ang GAWA.

    In the movie Gods Not Dead, they didnt actually ask if God is dead. Theprofessor actually forced his students that God is Dead. Now how about we try toquestion ourselves if GOD IS DEAD? Do you think God is dead? For me NO.Definitely no. As long as there is someone out there that is still believing in him, no.Even though, that there is a possibility that most of us would think that he is DEAD,there will be at least on who still believe and have a strong faith to him. The situationsalso wherein God guided us to the right path is what makes him alive in our lives. Likewhat happened to me. At first believing in God is not only hard but a very awkward thingfor me since my parents have different religion. Aside from that I really dont know how I

    should practice my faith because in the first place my teachers just said that we shouldbe baptized first before receiving the Holy Communion. I only see that to be a baptisedas a Christian is way better than the religion of my parents. For me as Grade 3 pupil atthat time, to be a Christian is only an advantage on my part.

    But then it started to change when I cant handle my problems. There is alwaysone moment when I feel so hopeless that I cant overcome my difficulties. It feels like itsalready the end, then I will suffer and die. There are also temptations that draw meaway from believing by disobeying the commandments. What makes me overcomethese is through the Word of God. Even though, I didnt plan on going to church thatday. I didnt expect that through the homily of the mass presider I will be able to find the

    answer. I feel enlightened. I feel peace. I know in myself what I should believe and whatI shall trust. My faith become certain to me and that is to believe and trust Jesus.

    Based on what Ive watched on the said movie, it shows also how we should seeGod. Not on what other people always say about God. Like what wevediscussed onour first class, that nakakalason ang pakikinig sa opinion ng madla. We shouldntfocus solely on what are the opinions of other people. We have our own will to chooseon what to believe.
