Rain Growth

Paano kung ang “Biyahe” na hinihintay mong maranasan, ay matagal nang gustong pangunahan ni Lord? 🛣️🤍

I’ve been listening to “Biyahe” by JROA lately, and when I learned that it was intended as a worship song, the lyrics suddenly felt different.

“Hawakan mo ang kamay ko…
Akong magsisilbing gabay mo…”

And somehow, those words reminded me of my own journey with God.

Ang dami kong gustong mangyari sa buhay.

May mga pangarap akong gustong maabot.
May mga plans akong gustong matupad.
May mga prayers akong matagal ko nang hinihintay.

But sometimes, I get so focused on where I want to go that I forget to ask:

“Lord, Ikaw ba ang gusto kong manguna sa biyahe na ‘to?”

Because maybe the problem isn’t that God hasn’t shown me the destination.

Maybe I’m just too busy trying to hold the steering wheel.

I’m learning that faith isn’t always about knowing where you’re going.

Sometimes, faith is simply saying:

“Lord, hindi ko alam kung saan Mo ako dadalhin, pero hawak ko ang kamay Mo.”

Kahit may detours.
Kahit may delays.
Kahit may mga bagay na hindi ko maintindihan.

I want to trust that He sees the road better than I do.

Hindi ko kailangang kontrolin ang buong biyahe.
Kailangan ko lang siguraduhin kung sino ang nangunguna.

So if you’re also in a season where you don’t know what’s next…

Maybe don’t rush the journey.

Maybe pause.

Pray.

And ask:

“Lord, gusto Mo ba akong dalhin dito, o gusto ko lang talaga pumunta dito?”

Because the destination may be something you’ve been dreaming about…

but the journey with God may be the part He’s been preparing you for all along. 🤍

“For we walk by faith, not by sight.” — 2 Corinthians 5:7

Lord, Ikaw ang manguna. Ako, susunod. ✝️

Alam mo ba kung bakit ang galing ni Lord?

Kasi alam Niya kung ano talaga ang kailangan natin.

Minsan, exactly what we need comes at exactly the right time. A person. An opportunity. A closed door. A lesson. Even a situation we didn’t ask for.

Pero narealize ko rin na hindi lahat ng difficult seasons, automatic na ililigtas tayo ni Lord from them.

Sometimes, He allows us to go through it.

Not because He doesn’t care.

But because there are lessons we won’t understand until we experience them.

Minsan, naging mahirap yung buhay natin dahil sa choices na ginawa natin.

We chose something because it felt right at the time.
We rushed.
We ignored the warning signs.
We followed what we wanted instead of asking what God wanted.

And eventually, we had to live with the consequences.

That’s why ngayon, kapag may mga important decisions ako sa buhay, I’m learning to pause and ask:

“Lord, aligned ba ’to sa will Mo?”

Kasi minsan, hindi naman talaga kailangan maging sobrang complicated ng buhay.

Napapahirap lang natin kapag pinipilit nating sundin yung sarili nating way instead of God’s way.

But here’s what gives me hope:

Even when I make the wrong choice, God can still use the process to teach me.

He can turn consequences into wisdom.
Pain into maturity.
Delays into preparation.
And detours into direction.

Kaya kung may pinagdadaanan ka ngayon at hindi mo maintindihan kung bakit kailangan mong mapunta diyan…

Maybe you don’t have the answer yet.

And that’s okay.

Jesus said:

“You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.”
— John 13:7

So maybe for now, trust Him while you’re still in the process.

Hindi mo kailangan maintindihan lahat today.

Hintayin mong i-reveal ni Lord kung bakit mo kailangang dumaan diyan.

Someday, baka balikan mo yung season na ’yan and finally say:

“Ah… kaya pala.”

Growing through the lessons. Trusting God through the process.

ALL GLORY TO GOD. 🙏🏻✨

There are moments when I look back and realize—

I couldn’t have done this on my own.

The opportunities, the lessons, the people, the strength to keep going, and even the doors that closed along the way…

None of it is something I want to take credit for.

I did my part.
I showed up.
I worked.
I learned.
I kept moving.

But through it all, God was faithful.

Some victories came through hard work.
Some came through patience.
Some came through unexpected opportunities.
And some came simply because God made a way when I couldn’t see one.

And the more I grow, the more I understand that success isn’t about making more of me.

It’s about making more room for Him.

“He must increase, but I must decrease.”
— John 3:30

More of Him.
Less of me.

So whether I’m celebrating a breakthrough or walking through another season of growth, I want to remember:

The glory belongs to God.

Still learning.
Still building.
Still growing.

But above all, still grateful. 🤍

All glory to God. Always. 🙏🏻

Building a business is hard.
Building a brand is even harder.

But somewhere between the failed ideas, awkward conversations, self-doubt, inconsistent days, and starting over…

you realize something:

You’re not just building a business.
You’re building yourself.

Every challenge forces you to communicate better.
Every rejection teaches you resilience.
Every setback builds your character.
Every opportunity demands courage.
Every small win reminds you that growth takes time.

The business may be the goal,
but personal growth is the journey.

And maybe that’s the beautiful part of building something from the ground up—

the more you build, the more you become.

And if you’ve been dreaming of starting your own business but honestly don’t know where to start, you don’t have to figure everything out alone.
