What is the funniest misunderstanding you have been part of?

What is the funniest misunderstanding you have been part of?  Honestly, I can say that since I have gained a lot of weight, my relatives and friends were saying that I do not look right wearing shorts.   I might have recently learned how to accept constructive criticism. However, I will always know that I am God's magnificent masterpiece, according to Ephesians 2 :10.  Therefore, I know that I am truly blessed by God and Jesus Christ themselves. 🙏  I will recite the Serenity Prayer.  God granted me the serenity to accept the things th I can not change.  Please give me the courage to change the things that I can and give me the serenity to know the difference 🙏 ✨️ In Jesus' name, I pray Amen and Amen 🙌 🙏 ❤️ ♥️.  God bless all of you worldwide 🌐 🙏 ❤️. Thank you for allowing me to answer this question to the best of my ability ♥️ ❤️ 🙏 😊.  

Matthew 18:18 Bible verse images and meaning

Search Icon Fourteenth Sunday after Pentecost The sayings on binding and loosing in Matthew 18:18 (and 16:19) have presented a puzzle that resists precise resolution. Sep 10, 2017  Gospel  View Bible Text Commentary on Matthew 18:15-20 Stanley Saunders Share: The sayings on binding and loosing in Matthew 18:18 (and 16:19) have presented a puzzle that resists precise resolution. Jesus tells his disciples that what they bind or loose on earth is also bound or loosed in heaven. This is both a startling grant of authority and a warning to the disciples. With authority comes profound responsibility, especially when the community represents God’s presence and power in the world. But what does binding and loosing really mean? The scholarly consensus has been that these terms have something to do with determining the boundaries of the community, intervening in conflicts, settling matters of doctrinal dispute, and deciding who is in and who is out. These matters, however, focus more on...

What app eats up most of your screen time?

What app eats up most of your screen time---and do you feel bad about it?  Honestly, I have been spending a lot of time on Facebook,  Instagram,  and YouTube.  This is the reason why I have to turn off all of my cellphone notifications just to get some peace.  Long before I got my life right with God and Jesus Christ 🙏 🙌 ❤️,  I used to view a pornographic website called round and brown and a whole lot of other pornographic websites like pornhub.  This will cause a worm virus, and it will shu t your computer or cellphone completely down. Thank you for allowing me to answer this question to the best of my ability.   God bless all of you worldwide 🌐 🙏 ❤️. Amen and Amen 🙏 🙌 ✨️ ❤️ 👏 😊. 

What is a movie or book that inspired you to travel?

What is a movie or book that inspired you to travel?  The Holy Bible is the only book that inspired me to travel and potentially decide to visit these unique places in the Bible and take pictures of where everything had taken place throughout biblical history.   I just know that due to international conflicts that are taking place in areas where I really want to visit; I hope that these opposing countries are able to come to terms and establish peace with each other someday.   Honestly, I really do not have any money to travel anywhere abroad right now.  I guess I will have to officially wait until Jesus Christ comes back to earth, and hopefully, I will travel with him to heave n.  I only wish that Jesus Christ could come right no w and officially govern all of the nations of the world because mankind is definitely doing a very lousy job of running things without God and Jesus Christ divine assistance 🙏 ❤️.  Please come back and resolve this mess...

IF YOU COULD ERASE ONE TREND FROM HISTORY WHAT WOULD IT BE?

If you could erase one trend from history, what would it be?  Honestly I would eliminate all forms of evil worldwide.  I would eliminate same sex marriage and unions worldwide 🌐.  I would like to prevent young people worldwide from committing random acts of violence by learning how to listen to our young people and teaching them how to make better decisions for themselves and to offer additional resources to help them to become honest contributors in their own society worldwide 🌐 😀 👍 👏 ❤️ .  Frankly I would tell our world leaders to stop this political divide worldwide by allowing the citizens worldwide to select better leaders so that everyone worldwide would have an opportunity to vote for people who literally understand the citizens of our nations worldwide 🌐 .  I want to inform our world leaders that the world's citizens are in need of your help .  I am really getting tired of watching attack political adds on television .  To me this is slan...

How do you see structure

How to See “Structure” By   Richard Karash       Y ou have probably already learned about the importance of distinguishing among events, patterns, and structure. But still, you may be finding it difficult to apply this distinction. Perhaps when you try to analyze an issue from this perspective, the lines between patterns and structure get blurred or you find structure hard to see. You are not alone many learners encounter these difficulties. There are guidelines, however, that can help you to see structure and seeing structure will provide you with leverage for solving your long-term business challenges. What Is Structure? Let’s say that, on your way home from work, you run into a traffic jam. You know that you can gain leverage and find potential lasting solutions by surfacing the underlying structure. So you ask yourself, “O.K., what’s causing this traffic tie-up?” Your first answer will probably focus on the forces responsible for the heavy traffic, such as “decay...

Which form of technology do you miss the most and why?

Which outdated technology do you miss the most, and why?  Honestly, I want to say that most of the outdated technology have been implemented into one of the most profound technological items are Microsoft Word and Word Perfect software, because they are used as one it em.  Today's cellphone has a handheld computer attached inside of one device .   When it comes to our application apps, it has been attached inside of our cellphones so that everyone worldwide would be able to apply it to our 5 senses.  When it comes to the Holy Bible, everyone worldwide would be able to read hear and see it for ourselves.  The Holy Bible itself has been translated into multiple languages so that everyone worldwide would be able to apply it to their own 5 sens es.  The learning apps that we upload and download on our cellphones each day makes it possible to communicate with everyone worldwide on a daily basis each day without paying additional money on our phones charges every...

WHAT EXCUSE YOU HAVE HEARD LATELY

What is the best excuse you have heard lately?  The best excuse that I have heard lately 🤔 is that the dog ate my homework.   However, in my case is that I have stayed up for going on 4 consecutive days las t week.  Where I am currently living at right now; the medical staff denied me the opportunity to become weaned off of my therapeutic dosage of medication and I have been suffering from medication withdrawal symptoms from taking Invega and Prozac as well as Neurontin earlier this month .  I will admit that I have been prescribed too much Invega Prozac and Neurontin medication by an outside physician in the first place 🙏.  Therefore, I had been experiencing prescription medication withdrawal symptoms since July 2, 2026, because I was taking medication from two different pharmacies simultaneously throughout this ye ar.  I have gained a total of 71 pounds within a 6 month period this year only .  Earlier this year, I used to weigh 225 pounds on ...

Do you think we are shaped by our experiences more than who we are?

Do you think we are shaped more by our experiences or by who we are?  Honestly as long as I have God and Jesus Christ in my life I know that I can overcome all things that are very difficult for me.   To answer this question I want to inform everyone that my experiences differ from who I am as a person because I am solely responsible for taking risks throughout my life .  My personal experiences consisted of accomplishments early on because I graduated from the University of Toledo twice as well as working in the community as a productive member of society .  I had jobs during the 1990s working with street gang members for three consecutive years as a youth counselor in the Toledo Ohio Lucas County Area .  I am responsible for working inside of college and university libraries for 12 years.  I really prefer working inside of a library because it is one of the most peaceful jobs that I have ever worked at in my entire life.   Also I am responsible ...

IF YOU HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE AN ANIMAL FOR A WEEK WHAT WOULD YOU BE

If you had to be an animal for a week, which one would you be and why? Honestly, I would be an eagle because if I wanted to go anywhere on planet Earth, I wouldn't have to save any money from a humanistic perspective because I would have wings to fl y.  I would only have to have the energy to fly anywhere I want to go. The only two eagles that I would be are an American Bald Eagle and a Crown Eagle, which is the world's largest eagle .  Both of these eagles have the ability to kill serpents and catch fish.  An eagle has the ability to see things from a great distance 🙌 👌 👏 👍 .  At least all birds of this magnitude are very healthy .  Thank you for allowing me to answer this question to the best of my ability.   

What is something that will happen in 20 years from now?

What is a piece of technology you are convinced that will exist in 20 years?  The android and I phones will become a whole lot more advanced than usual.  Whereas there would be a Holy Bible that will become more advanced than usual a s well. Apps would become more advanced as well in the future .  If the Lords will, everything will become more modernized, and it will cost a whole lot more to purchase a new phone in the future. Hopefully, Jesus Christ will come back to earth and restore harmony throughout all of the nations of the worl d.  There would be a new heaven and a brand new earth during that time. At least all of our worries will become a thing of the past.  If the Lords will, I will live to see it with my own eyes .  I have to literally prepare for something like this by making simple changes in my own personal behavior.  I am hopeful that this will become a reality within a 20 year period.  Thank you for allowing me to answer this que...

WHICH BOOK HAVE YOU READ MORE THAN ANY OTHER BOOK

Which book have you read more than any other?  The Holy Bible is the book that I have read more than any other book because this book provides me with the information that I need to improve my life completely.  God and Jesus Christ have already been written in advance so that everyone who reads it will give me the guidance and direction that I will always need to live and have a better way of life 🙏 ❤️ .  Thank you for allowing me to answer this question to the best of my ability.  The Holy Bible is my favorite book forever.

Are you a lifelong learner?

Are you a lifelong learner? Yes, I am a lifelong learner because things are always changing in order to meet societal demands .  According to Romans 12:2 says Do not conform to the patterns of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.  This means that I have to always figure out whether or not what is acceptable according to God’s perfect will. I do know that Satan can talk inside of your head just by distracting believers of God and Jesus Christ by making suggestions because he knows exactly what we desire just like God and Jesus Christ. I just know that I have to always stay in prayer all of the time.  I just know that for me personally I still have a lot of personal flaws in my life right now.  I have to always counter Satan with God's word all of the time.  I do have to stop this influence by asking God whether or not is he saying this to me or...

WHAT IS A HABIT THAT HAS IMPROVED YOUR LIFE RIGHT NOW?

What is one habit that has improved your life the most?  One of my favorite habits that have improved my life right now is my ability to rely on God and Jesus Christ when I really need them the most.   Even though I might be making mistakes along the way, but when I need immediate help they are always around.   I am depending on God and Jesus Christ for my help all of the time.   I want to inform all of you that I am going through medication 💊 withdrawal symptoms as well as a complete medication crash simply because I was taking medication from two different pharmacies simultaneously throughout a 6 month period .  Therefore I am in need of 24 consecutive hours of care each day while I am housed inside of an assisted living facility at this current moment.   My  sense of awareness and direction has improved 👏 considerably during my time at a care facility. God and Jesus Christ 🙏 🙌 are doing for me more than I am doing for myself.  The Cott...
