China wall slowly revealing power

China is really determined to take over the world.  The East Asia’s biggest strives hard to overtake the United States and Europe in terms of the number of scientific researches that it has produced overtime.  There is still the question though whether these scientific researches matches the quality of the leaders in research since everybody knows that they are more inclined to produce more in terms of quantity rather than quality.

We are thankful to China for their invention of paper, printing, compass and the gunpowder. You may not know that crude paper was originally used in Egypt around 3,500 BC which until 70 AD a person named Ts’ai Lun invented the kind of paper that is used use today. For the printing on the other hand was again invented in China with the use of woodblock around 220 BC which later on evolved into the real printing press that was already known to be invented by  Johannes Gutenberg.

There is no stopping China now from later on dominating the world in terms of technology.  From the rate they are going, no matter how poor the quality of their performance, there is power in numbers as they say.  One of these days, these inventions and researches they have, no matter how crude, will still result to something else which deserves special recognition.

It will be noted that just recently, China had developed an anti ship ballistic missile, the DF21D, that could destroy an entire aircraft carrier which created a dent in America’s military invincibility over the region.  It is a far a flung idea that they would engage into war in the near future, not until another 100 years to 150 years perhaps of which they have enough stealth bombers to match the formidable thousands that America has.

China’s determination to develop new things whether it is for military or for science only proves one thing, that they are no longer the sleeping giant lying idle in the corner.  Her walls are slowly revealing the power that has not been unleashed until probably when the time is right.  

The worse may not happen yet. There are only a few nations in the world that you consider dominating the world in military power and economy and China is not yet as influential as others are.  They are exerting their efforts in building up their economy which is indeed seen by the influx of investments that they have had for the past few years.  They appear to be mighty by now in terms of economy, and with just a little ironing of internal financial woes, China will rule the world financially.

There will be no need for them to overcome America with military might. They will just simply overload them with debt until they will come kneeling down to China for reprieve. A lot of people in China are still living in austerity even if their economy is booming while people in America are still enjoying their American dream despite their economic descent.  By the rate this is going, it is clear that the latter will suffer the worse if they do not change overtime.

MIDDLE EAST CRISIS WILL SOON END

The political and cultural landscape in the Middle East area is slowly changing to match the historic change of the geographic landscape that has affected Japan lately.  There is no stopping them now that they have learned to express themselves and free themselves from their long bondage of blind obedience.

It is known worldwide that the people who are devout Islam believers are submissive to their leaders no matter how brutal these leaders are.  Their belief in their leadership is rooted to the idea that they are enthroned by Allah therefore they do not have the right to complain about their tyranny.  This is what they have believed for the longest time which has also been the source of abuse by their leaders who have taken opportunity of these peoples’ gullibility.

It is not bad to associate your religion to politics especially if your politics is indeed your religion.  Their laws are basically based in the Quran which practically dictates whatever they do all the rest of their lives.  They follow by the dot everything that is written in it, from the how to marry a woman to how to bury their dead.  This truly is a good practice which could really bring world peace if indeed every one of them is just sincere enough to follow everything by the letter.

What is happening in the Middle East today is a clear manifestation that indeed some good things never last.  They have always lived abundantly because of their rich oil reserves which is now in its countdown process because they are just waiting for these reserves to dry out without finding another alternative. All governments around the world are continually scouting for alternative energy and soon enough they will be able to hit the right button and totally disregard the use of oil.  What they are protesting right now is just what they need to do to change course or otherwise they will all fall in to the pit of nothingness.

These leaders whom they want to be ousted are an epitome of extravagant living which is a real contrast of what most of their constituents’ lifestyle.  You will see that perhaps many of them do not see this as corruption but a given privilege for their anointed leader.  It is just now that they are realizing that they have been duped to believe that it is alright to be lavish for as long as you are godly.

 Only time will tell about how these simultaneous turn of events in the Middle East will end.  There is no question that these people are looking for freedom not from slavery, not only from poverty but from what is perceived to be a naive understanding about religious fanaticism where they just follow blindly what their religious leaders would tell them without investigating and finding for themselves their own understanding about what is true.  It is often said that you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.

CULTURE OF CORRUPTION

They say in a corrupt government, there are only two different types of people, one is a good person working in a bad government and the other is a bad person working in a good government.   Being in a situation like this will really pose a dilemma to you because you will never know how to position yourself.  In all likelihood, you will be kicked out from your government if you don’t know how to play the games they play. Either way is a hazardous to you.

The people on the other hand have a very strong role to play to thwart these corrupt practices in the government.  Corruption is not done alone as we know.  There are networks of individuals that allow the flow of transaction to materialize unnoticed, starting from the initiator down to the recipient.  It all starts from a business offer and it will end up to the delivery of goods with the unlimited price ceiling. 

The biggest challenge in stopping this dreaded practice is to find the source.  If you can suppress the source then there is no recipient.  The generals they are investigating and literally lambasting on national television is indeed answerable to their acts, but there should be more to that.  This brazen act of receiving gifts in the government and the military should be punished and intensely together with the one offering the gifts as well.

Hit the target from the source.  The clamour to stop corruption should be yelled in front of the mirror as you say it to yourself that enough is enough.  It takes courage to admit that you are a part builder of the corrupt culture that the country has right now. A simple $10 bribe to expedite the processing of document in any government agency is already a valid example that you are also a participant to corruption.  No matter how you justify the act it is still a corrupt practice.

It is often said that there is no big and small sin.  Whether you commit a small act of corruption and a receive billions in bribe money, it will all be the same.  There has to be an end to all these practices.  You can say no in your little way to deny the urge to participate in this horrible practice before it becomes part of you.  You can stop it now before it is too late for you to get out and getting out in the end might mean sacrificing your sanity.

DON'T QUIT

From the Apostle Paul: "But this precious treasure—this light and power that now shine within us—is held in perishable containers, that is, in our weak bodies. So everyone can see that our glorious power is from God and is not our own. We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed and broken. We are perplexed, but we don't give up and quit. We are hunted down, but God never abandons us. We get knocked down, but we get up again and keep going."¹

I suppose there are times when all of us feel overcome by problems and feel like quitting. I've been there, but couldn't find anything better than my Christian faith to quit to. Today I thank God for the courage to keep going, not knowing that God was allowing trials to strengthen my faith and to help me grow.

If you feel like giving up and quitting, perhaps the following poem will encourage you to hang in, hang on, but never hang up when the going gets tough.

    Don't Quit

    When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
    When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
    When the funds are low and the debts are high,
    And you want to smile, but you have to sigh.
    When care is pressing you down a bit,
    Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
    Life is strange with its twists and turns,
    As every one of us sometimes learns,
    And many a failure turns about
    When he might have won had he stuck it out.
    Don't give up though the pace seems slow –
    You may succeed with another blow!
    Success is failure turned inside out –
    The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
    And you never can tell just how close you are,
    It may be near when it seems so far.
    So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit–
    It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.²

I also like a quote that Robert Schuller has used: "When the going gets tough, the tough get going." Or as the title of one of his books says, Tough Times Never Last. Tough People Do.

God never forsook the Apostle Paul who faced incredible trials and opposition. And he will never forsake you or me as long as we place our trust in him.

Suggested prayer: "Dear God, thank you that you will never forsake or abandon me. Please help me always to put my trust in you and your faithfulness regardless of my circumstances, knowing that in the end my faith and trust in you will be justified. Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer. Gratefully, in Jesus' name, amen.
