“Stagnancy is a deterrent for growth. It halts you on the journey of acceptance that what has past—happened, in order to give you the necessary tools to achieve happiness on the other side.”

“We all have problems and choose how to deal with them differently. Unemployment, suffering, problems, or poverty don’t justify why one should commit crimes, break the law, or engage in illegal activities. There will never be justice if we keep justifying crime or justifying why criminals do crime because everyone has a reason why they do what they do.”

“Many Christians today appear dishonest and divisive, often believing they are never wrong. They see themselves as the only righteous ones, while labeling others as sinners or evil. They rarely take accountability, instead blaming others for their own actions. Some even justify harm or violence as a form of justice, which is deeply troubling. They are manipulative, spreading misinformation and propaganda, and promoting fear, intimidation, violence, and hatred under the guise of faith. By portraying themselves as victims, they seek sympathy and validation, all while misusing God's name and distorting scripture to defend harmful behavior. May God save us from such hypocrisy and transform these individuals into true reflections of His love and grace. Romans 3:10 | Titus 1:16”
