the price of fruits and vegetables here will increase again very significantly because of the flood that we had just experience recently... the prolong drought had made it bad enough for the farmers and now the flood make it even worst... it is anticipated that the price will increase up to 5 times and we will face shortage of fruits and vegetables... i am really scared as the price of everything had risen a lot here and our salary cannot match the increase in the prices... on top of that, the government will also increase our water and electricity bill up to 2 times because they are doing two major projects to face the drought... urrrggghhhh... despite of all this, i believe that our God is a merciful God and He will suffice our needs... i just have to have faith in Him and keep on praying so that the condition will become better... thanks for taking time to listen to my worries... have a good day my friends...

It's sad to hear of this but I do believe it's common around the world for one reason or another - the things we really need are getting way out of control as far as prices.
Praise the Lord though that He will provide for our needs and the day will come that we won't have these worries.

yes, i agree that it is really sad... but at the same time i am also grateful to God because He always provides me enough... He is a sufficient God and i am really content with what i have right now... and being in this difficult situation make us even closer to God and trust Him more which is a good thing...

i don't express my feeling. so do here,in china. the price of food and vegetable, house increases very high. i'm worry about it now. and there are so many complaint about it. we think the government should take some actions against it. but i cann't see good results.
