tuesday- the newspaper day
i was flipping through the newspaper today and a few headlines caught my attention.1. Tsunami kills 86 in Java
2. Islamic leader dies after car hits wild boar
3. Suicide verdict on man found burnt near dad's tomb
4. Maid raped by boss on 1st day of work
5. Hubby admits battering wife to death.
-He flung an alarm clock at her face
-Punched her
-Threw an 8.5kg fan at her
-Yanked her by the hair
(even after her face was drenched with blood)
-Hit her head with ironing board
There was also an aritcle which stated that everyday, one person in Singapore commits suicide.
it's just heart breaking to see news like that each time i read the newspapers. natural disasters, people taking their own life, murder, rape, people dying in accidents... makes me look forward more to going to heaven.. where there is no sickness, no worries, no sadness, no sin. believe in Jesus Christ, and heaven will be your destination after you leave earth...
*another interesting thing i saw on the newspaper was of this lady who died. the orbituary was rather huge. she had 11 children, 9 children in law, 29 grandchildren, 7 grandchildren in law, 13 great grandchildren. a total of 69 close family members. wow... imagine that! SIXTY NINE!
help me to trust.
