It's Getting Better...

A couple of weeks ago, all of us here in this island were suffering from not getting fresh air. The haze was so bad that whenever I opened my front door, I felt slamming it shut again. Now I know where all my dust come from. I can arm myself with a feather duster and a piece of wet cloth, going in a wiping frenzy but every minute the dust will settle to the surface again. So, I'm not going to let the dust threaten me in such a way that I feel like a dust-slave. Thanks to our neighbouring country for contributing to such huge amount of dust that visibility ahead seem to be just impossible. The weather was so hot and humid that no matter how much water that I drank, I was thirsty immediately. God is good~! After the weather has become more and more intolerable, God sent us heavy rain. It was pouring cats and dogs for a few days to clear the haze away. Now, I'm able to see the hill view from my house. I'm not bothered about the city view from the back of the house. This is the view that I see every time I open the door. It's clear and sunny now, with cooling air floating into the house from the side windows. Thank God for corner house or else it will be as hot as the oven, sandwiched in between neighbours. Rubbish~! When we were at Logo's Hope last week, we saw so much rubbish floating on the sea. That sight was pure embarrassment. If I were to bring a tourist from a developed country, I would have cover my face in shame. I'm so ashamed of this ugly sight. Incorrigible people~! Always dump rubbish straight from the house into the sea. This part is not getting better.

Everyone always talk about global warming but there never is a collective attempt to do something about it. Why? Because everyone is so much more concerned with material things than the true treasures that lies within nature...see it is because the People choose to not see God's Spirit manifest in nature, that is why money is far more important that they exploit mother earth bleeding her Dry just to make more money, and what if they have excavated all Earth for "new malls and business enterprises"? What would they have left to live on?

Planet Earth or nature is not regarded as sacred any more, and Earth or ground all its natural resources seem to only have the allure to use and abuse for money...there is no true appreciation left, they are using planet Earth as a prostitute...she helps them with a quick fix of their ego, yet the situation is quite the opposite, seeing that she gives them money...even a prostitute is more expensive than this planet.

What if she gets used up? Or will God continue to renew and give the people...all to serve the World (Satan/Babylon)...why would God continue to let people do this? To screw up His creation to serve the material world? To test people's faith? Or maybe it is out of His hands as the people chose who they serve...you cannot serve two masters, yet we are all trapped in this world one way or the other...maybe God will just sit back and see how the world destroys itself, as the people destroy mother Earth through their greed...there would be no need for Divine intervention to bring about the end of the world, when this planet is already dying due to the human races' pride...the scientists want to know all the more, the more they know they more they "become like God" and people just want to make more money, for money is power..."as knowledge".

...if you go take a look at the "native tribes", they were happy living a simple life...they cared for nature and nature cared for them, why did they care for nature? Because they had respect for God, for His creation, and so God cared for them...there was no money troubles to distract them from seeing God...but when the world became more important than nature, even the "natives" fell under the curse - forced to serve the world, because they chose to follow the allure of the world - to be your own "god" and "promises of power", you know just imagine how many aboriginals would have been able to stand their ground against the world, if so many of them wouldn't have left their homes in nature to pursue worldly riches?

They are so consumed by the world and materialism that they are unable to contemplate the wonders of God's creation...they are not in "awe of God's grandeur" any more, because the world rules their thoughts...that happens when "slaves are conditioned to see and know only one thing" - the "glory" of Mammon...they are so hyped up about all their worldly endeavors that they simply do not have time to sit back and relax, to really think about life, because all they think about is money, tax and survival in the material world.
