If I could permanently

If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why?

If I could permanently ban a word from general usage, it would be “rejection” and all its meanings. It is the worst word and worst feeling in the world; that word makes you feel bad about yourself and also makes you feel like an outsider. Many people can relate to this, as we use it so much and in different forms. No, “rejected”—you are overly qualified or underqualified. That is everyone’s fear at some point in their lives before they can overcome it, because we become better when we are rejected many times. But I would rather get a “no” than get that weird rejection letter. Thanks, but no thanks. That was my biggest fear, but I realized that it was for the best. But yes, ban that word in general. -CM

No One Can Be

No one can be made right with God by just following laws and doing good. People can only be made right with God when they trust and believe in Christ Jesus. The only religion we should claim is in Jesus Christ’s name, the savior of the world, the one who showed us that Hell is on earth during his test in the Judean wilderness. When Satan offered Jesus all the kingdoms of the world in exchange for worship, Jesus rebuked him, stating, “Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.” Rebuke the devil, and he shall flee from you. -CM

What Bores Me

What bores you?

What bores me is a lot to say. I was bored when I wasn’t doing anything with myself or my life, and when I was wasting my life away on social media, obsessed with other people’s lives. All I saw was a lot of complaining and nothing realistic. Well, that was in the past, and now we are in the present. What really bores me are lazy people who are constantly complaining about everything and still believe that money grows on trees, while forgetting that the Bible says that whoever does not work shall not eat. There are so many other things that bore me, but we have to keep moving, and we should not neglect our health due to anything unimportant. Rude people bore me, and inconsiderate people bore me. Overly educated people with no worldly experiences bore me, etc. I could keep going, but I will stop; this is not judging anyone, but expressing my thoughts on boredom. Go for a walk while listening to worship, country, pop, R&B music, or whatever helps you to move; do it. -CM

Favorite People

Who are your favorite people to be around?

My favorite people to be around are my darling man and his wonderful, cute daughters. They are so full of fun and a joy to be around. I adore every moment that I get to spend with them, and all the wonderful people that surround them are like the light of God is always near, with peace, love, and admiration. I am blessed to have them in my life. I can’t wait to travel with them all soon in the friendly skies with me. -CM

To be quick,

To be quick to listen and slow to speak is probably the hardest thing we all have yet to do since we were toddlers, though now we understand better what it means or meant. Let us see that it is important to listen to each other without always having to interject how we feel. Let us see interactions with each other as an invitation into their circle of peace, not an opportunity to dispense our thoughts. If we don’t know something, let us ask questions, and when we get answers, let us welcome them in peace and with truth if otherwise. Let us use resources from experience and not made-up facts! Keep your faith in Jesus Christ 🙏 -CM
