Eat for the ecosystem

I was reading The Economist (a free introductory copy) the other day and they told me to eat the lion fish.


This naughty fish is said to be a predator to most small fishes and they are capable of reducing the number of such small fishes up to 80%. And I don't think they meant ikan-bilis small fish...

They eat a lot, but they are not likely to be eaten (but they are consumed once-in-a-while by predators like groupers). That's due to the sharp spines that act as the lion fish's defense mechanism.

The only way for things to turn around is for people to eat it. I know it doesn't look very appetizing, but it supposedly tastes like the snapper. But then again, I'm not sure if this fish is served in Malaysia, heh.

Hello, good afternoon

There are 7 days in a week. But each day is NEW. Regardless of how bad yesterday had been, today is a whole new day.

Psalm 118:24
This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Make it count? :)

Grace is all around me


1 Timothy 1:12
I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that he considered me faithful, appointing me to his service.


I don't have much to offer. I am weak. I am lowly in strength. But Someone has considered me faithful.. My emotions are imbalanced.

I can't believe God considers me faithful, even when I disappoint myself or had been too hard on myself.

I can never understand His grace, my thoughts are not His thoughts. I only know that He has given me grace over and over again.
