In times of grief..

I am saddened after hearing a tragic news about a child burned alive inside their house early this morning. I can’t imagine myself being in the same situation as the parents,i will feel like the end of the world for me. When you loose your properties through fire or natural calamities you may count on your home insurance to start a new life again. But loosing a loved one is the most difficult part of all, it seems there’s no road for recovery.

In times like this, we can only find peace, healing and hope through the presence of God in our lives. I pray the parents of that child will find comfort in the hands of our loving Father in heaven in this time of grief.

All i asked..

A few days from now it will be my nth birthday, am I excited? actually I have mixed emotions, I’m not that excited because of the fact that I’m getting a year older again and besides I will not be receiving loose diamonds as gifts from husband.lol Wishful thinking.hehe

Anyway I’m not really after the gift, having a loving, happy, peaceful and healthy family is all I asked from God on my birthday. Luxurious material things are not the true source of happiness in this world, they are just nice to haves.. we can live without them. :)

Only in acceptance lies peace…

“My peace I leave with you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and… afraid” (John 14:27).

The peace Jesus gives doesn’t depend on conditions and circumstances. It comes from knowing you’re God’s child and that your Father controls the universe, loves you and always has your best interests at heart. That’s why people who’ve lost everything will often tell you they wouldn’t trade what they’ve learned, even if it meant recouping all their losses.

Alternative to health insurance

There’s a saying that health is wealth, so as much as possible we want to make sure that our family is in good health but the question is how much can we afford on health and dental services these days? Life is getting difficult and often times we could no longer set aside even a little savings for our health needs. Good thing there are companies today that offer a better alternative to health insurance just like Ameriplan.

Car parts and accessories

While we’re on our way to office this morning i heard an unusual noise at the back of our car, i asked husband what was it and he said it could be due to worn out break drums. Upon hearing it i became worried because i know how delicate that part is, our lives are in danger if ever we take it for granted so i guess i have to set aside another budget for car maintenance. Gosh it’s really hard maintaining an old car but we have no choice we do not have enough money to buy a new one.

By the way are looking for car parts and car accessory store? i found a site where you can buy everything you need for your car. They have wide selection for all car brands and models. You’ll find billet grilles, spoiler, wind and rain deflectors, chrome trim and more at www.carid.com. If you’re interested just visit their site today.

Reasons why republicans are against Cash for clunkers

Cash for clunkers is a big issue in America right now and from what i read in news articles the Republicans  vowed that they wouldn’t allow the bill to be passed in the senate for additional funding. The man who is leading the fight against cash for clunkers additional funding is none other than John McCain.

I haven’t read the Cash for Clankers Bill,  but i stumble an article explaining why republicans opposed this Bill. Here are some reasons listed:

1) Surplus inventory that is forcing the automobile industry to lay off and furlough workers is sold off, resulting in unemployed people involved in the auto industry going back to work.

2) The hike in employment and in car industry cash flow results in more consumer spending, which helps the economy in general.

3) Car owners will find that they are paying less at the gas pump and have more in their wallet as a result.

4) The Detroit car industry gets a shot in the economic arm (even though foreign car manufacturers also make out big).

Based on this I can’t really say what’s the true motive of republicans, is it really for their country’s sake or they just want to discredit Obama administration. Well, whatever it is i hope it will be resolved positively,  US has a big influence in worldwide economy so it’s a worldwide concern as well.
