Who Controls It?

       Cyclone Narqis had just recently swept across the nation of Myanmar, which reported from Reuters, 10,000 has been killed and some 3000 people had gone missing. Some of my Myanmese friends where their hometowns were affected especially those which their family are in Yangon. They tried to call back to their family for their well being but to no avail because of communication break down. The cyclone has blown over more than 160 km/hour for few days until the border of Thailand and causes a big destruction.

        This is the first time I am serving in the Mission At the Doorstep, and I don't know how much I can do to calm the friends that have been affected, but I believe, all these are not in our hands, and not our plan, but I believe it is a divine intervention.

       Sometimes, death is just knocking in a second step ahead of life. Reminding me to live today like tomorrow is my last. At the end, we all knows, who actually controls all these? We know the answer, we shouldn't be negative about it, but of course some will not think this way, because some of us never felt the hurt of losing our loves one, but when it comes, what they and we want are answers. It isn't answers we suppose to get, but to know our lives are just as vulnerable as anybody else, I may die tomorrow, who knows? We should enjoy and appreciate each other and do to our best in that every second. There is a time for everything.

      Even the crude oil prices are increasing, and the chain reaction to it causes the food price to increase also, not only the crude oil factor, but also the weather factor around the world causes lack of food consumption. Who controls it? 

     We should have appreciate and know how not to take granted for what we have. He who is ubiquitous shall dwell in everything on this, but some of the factors are man-made which is absolutely ridiculous to point finger on Him. Ozone layer depleting? Global-warming effect? There are times people think the only way to solve human problems is to wipe out the existence of human race, but that would be a maniac(PSYCHO) to do so, as we live because of His grace and His mercy.

    I'm going to buy a bicycle by this month rather than all the time purchasing petrol for driving , since the prices of everything in inflating especially petrol and food. Back in Penang, the curry noodles of a certain stall has raised up 50 cents. Well, it will affect the other stall also in a short time.

   We thought we can control everything on this earth, the biggest mistake of all!

   Sometimes it is just pissing us off to talk about humanity which doesn't show any signs of humanity. Sigh*.... Mercy on us all.
