Proverbs 25:21-22: and What it Means to all People!!  By Anthony Joseph Hopkins December 4, 2021

       Good Day Everyone!!  My name is Anthony Joseph Hopkins and I am from Dayton, Ohio.  I am writing this essay because it means a whole lot to me.  I remember during the 1970s and 1980s, I used to have a lot of enemies.  I used to have enemies because I used to be involved in street gangs.  I used to be apathetic.  I did not care about myself or other people. 

       Next, I used to be a person who did not care about myself.  I had enemies that were living right across the alley from me as a child.  I cannot mention their names because I can get into trouble.  I want to inform all of you that I had enemies in my own family.  Matthew 10:36 says that a man’s own enemies will be from his own household.  I really believe it because as a person’s family grows, family members tend to clash over petty things.

 When I was living in Toledo, Ohio my enemies lived right across the street from me.  I was not afraid of them.  Its that, I did not want to get into trouble anymore.  I told them that I used to be involved in street gangs for 11 years.

 

 Whenever my so-called enemies come over to my apartment, I give them whatever they want.  It is true that God is with me always and forever.  This bible verses are true.  It is true because I do not have to get into trouble anymore.  I am allowing God to do all of the work for me. 

Further, I want to say that everything that is inside of the Bible is very true to me, and everyone else.  Anyway, I used to be involved in street gangs because I needed protection from all of my enemies.  Some of my enemies did not know that I was in a street gang.  My enemies were shocked because there was too much bloodshed.

Moreover, I used to help my enemies in school by doing their homework for them.  I used to get all of the answers right 95% of the time.  Every time I did homework for my gang peers and enemies, I used to see them smile and then cry because they have never earned As and Bs on their report card.  I want to inform all of you that I have not been involved in street gang activities in over 32 years. 

Finally, I want to inform everyone that every single time I used to get into trouble, I started crying because I did not like to get into trouble.  I have been clean and sober from marijuana since January of 1990.  I have not drunk any beer since Wednesday May 2, 1990.  I feel really good about myself right now because I do not like to argue with anyone.  Some of my friends still ask me to do things for them.  Such as uploading music on a Mp3 Player from specific websites such as DatPiff. Com and other websites.

 Some of my friends would prefer me to do the work for them.  I keep telling my friends that a computer is very easy to use.  Whatever you put inside of a computer, it is what you get out of it.  I have been using computers for over 30 years now.  I am not afraid of man or a computer.  I have been a Born-Again Christian for going on 7 years now.
