Justin: The Computer Addict

This is my nephew Justin, a 5-year old computer addict. He wakes up early in the morning, around 6 am just to play online games in y8.com.

Actually, he was not a computer addict before but my brother taught this innocent boy how to play computer games and walla there he is. Look at that serious-looking boy. It seems that he's gonna kill the computer monitor. Oh Justin, why did you follow the footsteps of your Tito. You look like your Tito now!

Life's Trials...

Each of us has his own trials. Financial problems, death of a love one, fired from a job, emotional stress and etc. Are you wondering why God allow this things to happen? How will we respond to our troubles?

In the very beginning, there have always been trials and sorrows and there always will be until we get to God’s place, the heaven. God knows what He’s doing when he allow this things to happen to us. He has a beautiful plan for us that He wants us to accomplish. One of the reason why He allow trials to come our way is He wants us to get rid of something that shoudn’t be there… things that would hinder us from getting close to Him.When trials come, God is testing us if we are really devoted to him. He wants to prove the quality of faith we have. God wants us to trust and obey him even in times of trouble. He also uses trials to show us who He really is. He shows his unconditional love to us, his faithfulness, character, and power by helping us in our trials. As God reveals his true character, he also teaching us how to become more like him. More like christ character.

God allow trials to exist because he wants us to become stronger, braver, wiser and to becomea fruitful being. Remember, God will never allow us to have trials that we cannot handle.

New Header

I decided to change my header. I think this header is nicer because it fits to the title of my blog: Me and My Food. I hope you like it too.

Monday afternoon

It's almost one o'clock already and I haven't eaten my lunch yet. I was planning to eat but my dad was scolding at us and now I don't have appetite to eat. I don't really know what my dad is feeling. He always shout and scold us. I guess every hour and every minute he scold us. He was not like that before when he was healthy. The incident brought him to that behavior. How I wish I could help my dad bring him to his old behavior.

All I can do today is pray for him. Pray that he will be cured and God will touch his heart so that he will be as kind as a little child.
