Praying for Rain: Preparing for God's Provision

by Raymund Tamayo Prayer is one of the most powerful things God has given us. Through it, we communicate with Him, express our needs, and seek His guidance. However, prayer is not just about asking — it’s also about preparing ourselves to receive what we ask for. The story of the two farmers cited in the movie Facing the Giants beautifully illustrates this truth. Both prayed for rain, but only one prepared his fields to receive it. Which one demonstrated true faith? Clearly, the farmer who acted in anticipation of God’s provision. Preparing for God's Provision This principle is deeply rooted in Scripture. James 2:26 reminds us, “Faith without works is dead.” True faith requires action. When we pray and trust God to answer, we should also prepare ourselves to receive His blessings. Let’s explore how we can apply this principle in our lives. 1. Trusting God’s Promise In Hebrews 11:1, we read that “faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do no...

True Leaders Care

by Raymund Tamayo With my former boss, Arcel T. Madrid. A rare combination of excellence and heart personified. A leader is more than just a title or a position; they are a catalyst for growth, a guardian of morale, and a champion of potential. Effective leadership isn't about wielding authority or controlling others; it's about fostering a supportive environment where individuals can thrive. The Cornerstone of Leadership: Care and Development The foundation of effective leadership lies in the care and development of one's team. When leaders prioritize the well-being and growth of their subordinates, they create a positive work environment where individuals feel valued, supported, and motivated. This nurturing approach fosters trust, loyalty, and a shared commitment to achieving common goals. The Power of Care When team members believe in their leader's genuine care, they are more likely to go the extra mile, contribute their best efforts, and ultimately drive the team...

To Feel Strong: A Lesson from 'Into the Wild'

by Raymund Tamayo “The sea’s only gifts are harsh blows, and occasionally the chance to feel strong. Now, I don’t know much about the sea, but I do know that that’s the way it is here. And I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong.” This line from the film "Into the Wild" holds a quiet, profound truth about the human experience. It speaks not only to the physical realities of surviving in nature but to the emotional terrain we all navigate in our lives. The sea, in this metaphor, represents life itself—vast, unpredictable, beautiful, and often unforgiving. The “harsh blows” are the hardships, the losses, the disappointments, and the quiet battles no one else sees. These moments are inevitable. Life, after all, doesn’t come with guarantees of ease or comfort. But amidst the struggle, there are rare and meaningful moments—the “chance to feel strong.” And that distinction is everything. The quote doesn’t say we must always be strong,...
