300,000 miles!

Yes, my 20 year old Honda Civic has just reached the 300,000 miles mark! Can't believe this car is still running since my high school days! It has been lost(stolen) and found again! And it just won't die! How awesome is that?

When I was in High School, I actually dreamed of having a VW Rabbit convertible. I actually wanted a brown color car. I knew it wasn't possible because mom and dad were going thru financial trouble, but I dreamed it anyways. Amazingly Honda sold this cheap car that we can afford, it's gold on the outside, but happens to be brown on the inside. It was one of these rare love at first sight kinda thing. It wasn't a convertible, but oh well. For sure it's a better handling and longer lasting car than the VW. And few years down the road, I do end up owning a convertible that is much much better! ;)

I wasn't really a Christian back in High School, but Somebody up there must've really love me in order to help my dream come true in a better way! Praise the Lord!!! :)

Anyway, besides the good story, one disturbing piece of news is that using the EMF detector I recently bought, it turns out that our house can feel some effect the EMF field generated by the powerlines a block away!!! Actual health risks are still unknown, some are saying it's BAD BAD BAD, but others are saying it's perfectly safe. So everything's pretty inconclusive...not sure which side to believe... I'm currently reading a book called 'cross currents' in order to have a better understanding of effects of EMF on human bodies...

We also have to own this house for 3 years or else we have to pay the government back the tax credit we receive...

Oh well, we did pray to God about this house... if it's really that bad for us, He should've just not let us get it! Right God? I have to believe that God is reserving the best for us, but I have to admit that doubts are creeping in...

But today's reading, God said thru Isa 27:3

"I, the LORD, watch over it;
I water it continually.
I guard it day and night
so that no one may harm it. "

Okay. Whatever You say LORD! ;)

Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good;
his love endures forever!
