At least a dozen multimillionaires have left money to themselves in hope of being brought back to life. These immortality seekers ahve arranged to be cryogenically frozen after death. They've also put their wealth in "personal revival trusts." which they believe will be waiting for them when scientists resuscitate them in the future. Even if resuscitation were possible, to seek eternal life apart from the One who is immortal is to chase an elusive dream.

Paul affirmed that the Lord alone is the source of immortality. He is everlasting in His character and actions. For human beings, however, deaths is universal, inevitable, and ultimately leads to judgment.

You can make sure right now that you have eternal life. Confess to God that you're a sinner and you believe Jesus died in your place for forgiveness and eternal life. (Read more inside ..)

If a man withdraws his mind from the love of beauty, and applies it as sincerely to the love of the virtuous; if, in serving his parents, he can exert his utmost strength; if, in serving his prince, he can devote his life; if in his intercourse with his friends, his words are sincere - although men say that he has not learned, I will certainly say that he has.

Though organic food can be produced with certain synthetic ingredients, if must adhere to specific standards. Crops are generally grown without synthetic pesticides, artificial fertilizers, irradiation or biotechnology. Animals on organic farms eat organically grown feed, aren’t confined 100% of the time and are raised without antibiotics or synthetic growth hormones.

Organic foods may have higher nutritional value than conventional food, according to some research. The reason: In the absence of pesticides and fertilizers, plant boast their production of phytochemicals (vitamins and antioxidants) that strengthen their resistance to bugs and weeds. Some studies have linked pesticides in our food to everything from headaches to cancer to birth defects but many experts maintain that the levels in conventional food are safe for most healthy adults. Even low level pesticide exposure, however, can be significantly more toxic for fetuses and children and for pregnant women. Pesticides contamination isn’t as much of a concern in meats and diary products, but many scientist are concerned about the antibiotics being given to most farm animals. Many are the same antibiotics human rely on, and overuse of these drugs has already enabled bacteria to develop resistance to them rendering them less effective in fighting infection.

Organic farming reduces pollutants in groundwater and creates richer soil that aids plant growth while reducing erosion. It also decreases pesticides that can end up in your drinking glass; in some cities in the US, pesticides in tap water have been measured at unsafe levels for weeks at a time. Organic farming used 50% less energy that conventional farming methods in one 15 year study.

all of my medical examination turned out to be normal, even the extracted fluid in my right knee turns normal as well....

sometimes life here on earth is full of enigma.... that even the most advance science cannot answer the simple question of life... an enigma that only faith can comprehend such puzzle....

I thank GOD for giving me another chance in life.....

If your painted surfaces have seen better days, don’t assume they need a fresh coat. Here are fast fixes for 5 stains no roller required.

• Crayon
Then your kid, inspired, starts scribbling on your walls. To dissolve the waxy artwork in a hurry, use a citrus based cleaner like Goo Gone. Apply it with soft cloth, and once the stain disappears, wash the area with soap and water, and let dry. Then have that talk with your child about the difference between real life and make believe.

• Candle soot
These black marks can make even more or a mess when you try to scrub them off. To make light work of it: before you start, whisk off any dry, loose bits of soot with your vacuum’s dusting brush attachment; that will keep the soot from turning into a smeary mess when wet. Next, soak a cotton ball in rubbing alcohol and lightly go over the stain in a circular motion; repeat with clean alcohol dipped pads until that stain is a flicker in your memory.


• Fingerprints
Light switches, door frames, and stairway walls are all magnets for hand smudges. To lift the prints, sprits a little of your favorite all purpose cleaner on a cloth or sponge and wipe. Don’t spray the wall directly this will make the dirt run down and create a bigger problem. To ensure that the washed area blends with the unwashed wall, go over the once-dirty spot again with a water dampened sponge, even if your cleaner says no rinsing is required.

• Scuffs and scrapes
A bump from the vacuum cleaner here, in line skates there, and soon your sufaces look like they’ve been in the ring with Pacman. If your spray cleaner and sponge fail to KO those marks, use Scotch Brite Easy Erasing Pad. Be sure to wet the pad and press only as hard as is necessary, to avoid marring the paint.

• Stickers
To unstuck, soften the adhesive with heat from a blow dryer for 10 seconds or so, then peel. Repeat if necessary. If there’s gunk left behind, saturate a cotton swab with laundry pre-wash stain remover and rub until it penetrates the residue, carefully scrape if off with a spatula. Blot with a damp cloth and allow it to dry.

Beyond Paint
For walls with special coverings, you have to be a little more careful, Here, are the best ways to clean.

• Vinyl wall covering
Wash with a sponge and all purpose spray cleaner, Solid vinyl is the sturdiest and most scrub able, but this method should be safe for any coated covering just test first in a hidden spot.

• Paneling

1. If you can’t say something nice, say something nice anyway.
Acting upbeat (smiling and cheerfully greeting all you meet, remarking on every positive thing you notice) improves not just your mood, but might also boost your bank account. Studied executives and found the most successful people gave an average of three compliments a day. Forcing yourself to acknowledge what is good and beautiful trains you to see all the positive things in your environment. Also, when you make other people feel good about themselves, they’re more likely to reflect good vibes back your way.

2. Write away sagging self-esteem
Prop yourself up by writing down everything you’ve accomplished and achieved in, the past twelve months from handling a surly salesperson with dignity to sticking to a challenging diet. When you see all your successes as one impressive collection, your confidence will soar.

3. Pray
Praying can change brain chemistry to help alleviate mild to moderate depression. The nature of prayer doesn’t matter, the key to making prayer effective is a strong belief in “the transcendent” or a power that can change your life for the better that’s what elevates your emotions.

4. Get a runner’s high
When Duke University researchers compared the impact of an antidepressant and aerobic exercise on people with major depression, roughly equal numbers from slightly less than half to more than half improved after four months. But a follow up six months after the study ended revealed that the people who continued exercising were more likely to be partially or fully recovered that those who just took drugs. Vigorous exercise releases chemicals such as dopamine, oxytocin, and endorphins which make us feel good.

5. Think small
Overwhelmed by the enormity of all you have to cope with? Consider cleaning out your car or organizing the hall closet. Knocking off one manageable task can bestow the sense of mastery and control you need to tackle big issues. Cleaning not only helps dispel anxiety and nervousness, but looking at a pretty environment your created is miracle mood food.

Lose the blues
Felling blue over a romantic or professional rejection, make a list of al your ex’s faults or the downside of the job you didn’t get. Then remind yourself that only you are in charge of determining your self worth.
