Anything we have or see is just temporarily ours. All in this world belongs to God. He just let us borrow it. Even our own bodies belong to him. We must not put tattoos or piercing in different parts of our bodies. Once is accepted. But having three or more can already be considered a sin. You may say, “I can do whatever I want. This is my body.”  Well you’re wrong. It’s not yours.

Last year, 2012 to be specific. Terrifying news spread out in Manila, Philippines. It’s about a group of men who are said to ‘steal’ children. You heard it right. They get children and some says the reason of the group is to sell the body parts such as the kidney, liver, eyes and even the heart. They choose to take children because they think children’s fleshes are still fresh. They also take young women. Parents become aware. They took double security to their children. Some parents didn’t even let their children out. But months and weeks passed, the group faded. That calmed the city, all back to normal.

Witnesses said the group takes children who are roaming around without a guardian with a white and green van. They also mentioned plate numbers and warnings trough social media. But the latest victim is different. First week of April, 2013, a boy is said to be missing. I heard it on the TV news. The next day, the boy was found incomplete—his feet are missing. His heart, kidney, liver, intestine and such parts are removed. His neck has a deep cut and his belly. The boy is taken by a man and put him in a tricycle. Drove off and poof! Returned the boy the following day, DEAD. May the soul of that boy rest with God.

“Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the Lord.”

Leviticus 19:28
