Harry Kane going from football’s most famous trophyless player to a Ballon d’Or winner might be the greatest example of why changing employers can improve your life.
Jesus did not simply perform his miracles on unknown strangers that appeared to him in the church without being known by the congregations. Almost in all accounts of his miracles, although he demanded faith of those he healed, the miracles were in such a way that even doubters could verify.
When he raises Lazarus from the dead, he goes for a dead person that was known by all to be dead and already stinking. He went there four days after his death and burial, when no one could doubt that we was dead. He asked them to open the grave themselves, and commanded him to rise.
When he heals a blind man, he randomly identifies a KNOWN blind man in the crowd and perform the miracle before all. Just like one would heal Buchaman, not a ‘lame man’ who only appears on that day in church unseen by all before.
When he turned water into wine, it was at a public wedding, and waited until the wine they had was finished. He asked them to bring water, and the miracle was performed there before all. And they drunk the wine to verify. It was the same case for the fish and bread he multiplied.
When Thomas doubted his resurrection, he castigated his lack of faith, but still let him place his finger on his wound to prove. He didn’t end at scolding him.
That is why, not many of his detractors would accuse him of faking miracles. Instead, they could only accuse him of using other powers (Beelzebub). The miracles were obvious. He didn’t have to shout himself hoarse explaining them to doubters, or even curse those who challenged him. Even the last time he was challenged by a thief while on the cross (to save himself), he proved to the thief soon after.
It is crooks (Pharisees and Sadducees) that respond with guilty anger instead of proof - where the intent is to simply silence those who question them.
My 5 year old daughter said “nobody ever takes pictures of you, you only take selfies, do you want a picture in this restaurant?”
Me: ok baby
So here is the only non selfie of me in France taken by my 5 year old
One of the ugliest truths about life is, every choice we make kills another version of ourselves. Get married, and you'll eventually miss the freedom you had alone. Stay single, and there will be nights when you wonder what it would've been like to build a life with someone. Have children, and you'll miss parts of the life you never had before them. Don't have children, and you may spend years wondering about the family you never created.
There is no perfect path and there is no decision that leaves you with everything.
The life you didn't choose will always look better from a distance because you never had to pay its price.
Stop searching for a choice you won't regret, it doesn't exist. choose your life, accept what it costs, and live with the consequences.
This is why you should be able to squat 150kg at least because what if a baby elephant wants to ride your back and you don't have enough strength to pick it up. Couldn't be me.
Be careful out there guys.
I perceived a burning wire smell in my kitchen. Checked everywhere, couldn’t find anything.
Only for it to dawn on me that my spark is back. 😌
