Good Morning Everyone!! I am going to tell the doctor to take me off my medications. This is simply because I am taking 32 Prescription Medications. I am taking too much medication for Schizoid Affective Disorder. I want to inform all of you that a Judge court ordered me to take my medication 8 years ago. Please keep me in your prayers and thoughts.  This is simply because this order still stands as a Court Order.

Next, I want to say that I have been gaining too much weight as of late. 

Moreover, I have been having problems with my weight for the past 23 years now.  At first, I used to weigh 301 pounds over 23 years ago.  I know that it has slowed me down completely.  Currently, I suffer from Type 2 Diabetes and I am obese. 

In Addition, it takes me a very long time to take a bath.  It takes me a whole 1.5 hours to complete my task.  I am too big to fit inside of the bathtub.  I would like for all of you to please keep me in prayer.  The medications that I am taking that are making me gain weight are Zyprexa and Invega. 

Finally, I want to inform all of you that the two medications are making me gain a lot of weight.  My clothes are too small for me.  I have to do something!!

Are we capable of hiding from God?

            The answer is no!! According to Job 34:21 says for His eyes are on the ways of man, and he sees all his steps.  When it comes to man himself, he is only dust and clay.  The air that man breathe does not belong to him.  It belongs to God.  God is a sovereign God.  He is the God of all humanity.  According to Job 33:14 says for God may speak in one way or in another, yet man does not perceive it.  This means that man is totally unaware of the presence of God.  Whenever a man, woman, or child call themselves hiding from God; He knows exactly what you are doing at all times.  It is not very easy for someone to hide from a Power that is greater than yourself.

Job 33:4 says the Spirit of God has made me and the breath of the Almighty gives me life.  The Lord has made man out of the dust of the ground, he breathed His breath into the nostrils of man, and man became a living soul.  Genesis 2:27. The Lord God has made man and woman in His image Genesis 1:27.  Job 33:6 says truly I am as your spokesman before God: I also have been formed out of clay.  God knows the ways of all mankind.  Remember one thing, God’s ways and thoughts are not your own.  God is all in all.  Therefore, we cannot hide from God.  Job 34:11 says for He repays man according to all of his works, and he makes man to find a reward according to his way.  God is solely responsible for giving us life.  He is responsible for giving us the ability to do the things that we are currently doing right now.  This is so true that we shall be judged according to our works.  Faith without works is dead.  The only reason why we cannot hide from God is because He is inside of us.  Job 32:8 says but there is a Spirit in man and the breath of the Almighty gives him understanding.  To answer this question, God knows exactly where we are whether we are living or dead.  Thank you for reading my information!!

Do You Love The Lord?

        This is an essay that pertains to loving God.  I have one very important question to ask all of you.  Do you love the Lord?  According to the above Bible verse, it states that you shall love the Lord your God with all of your heart, with all of your soul, and with all of your strength.  I am only asking this very important question because I would like to receive some positive and negative feedback concerning the Lord your God.

        Next, I am requesting that everyone please keep me in your prayers because I am suffering from glaucoma and cataracts right now.  One thing that I can say is that I love all of you very much.  I am asking this question to find out what the Lord your God has done for you lately.  I want to inform everyone that I really love the Lord so much that He continues to bless me each day of the week.  The Lord, who is my personal Savior, loves me very much. 

        Further, I have asked this question because I know the Lord my God loves me so much that I say this because I feel that Jesus Christ has saved me from my own self.  I got baptized on February 15, 2015.  This is my 4^th year anniversary being Born Again. 

        Moreover, I love the Lord so much that I feel good every single day whenever I talk about my personal intimate relationship with Jesus Christ.  I also want to say that I am truly happy each day I get an opportunity to share about what the Lord have done for me in my personal life.  I feel very good whenever I share His magnificent Word with everyone.  Last night, 4/25/2019; I had a conversation with my fellow brethren about what God has done for me in my personal life.  I shared with my fellow brothers and sisters that God has blessed me with a job working in the Public School System.

        In Addition, I want to say that I am blessed by Him to share His word with others.  I thank Him for the weather, environment, people, and His word.  I want to say that I am an ambassador for Jesus Christ.  I have common sense.

I ask this question whether or not you really love the Lord your God? I love the Lord because He is awesome and true.  The Lord God is responsible for giving me a second chance at life because I almost killed myself by taking 2000 mg of Phenobarbital because I got scammed out of $16,977 dollars by 5 women and 5 men.  I will admit that I was foolish and very trusting when it comes to dealing with others.  I got scammed on March 13, 2008 until February 21, 2010.  I will admit that I gave money to people that I did not know. 

I want to be frank and say that I really did not know these people.  I met these women and men on Yahoo and Blackplanet.Com.  I met these individuals on social basis and I got taken advantage of by these people and I have forgiven all of them. 

How Do We Teach Our Children How To Obey God?

        This is an essay that ask a very important question.  How do we teach our children how to obey God?  According to Deuteronomy 6:7 says: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.  This means our primary emphasis is to teach our children how to love the Lord God.

        This also means that we are supposed to love the Lord with all of thy heart, soul, mind, and strength.  When it comes to teaching our children about the Bible, they learn by watching their parents.  If the parents are reading the Bible to their children, teaching their children how to pray, and taking them to church all of the time, and conducting themselves like a true Christian, then a child will never forget about the Lord.  According to proverbs 22:6 says: Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he gets old, he will not depart from it.

        I remember when I was growing up in the Dayton, Ohio Area from 1970-1990.  I attended church with my grandmothers on a regular basis.  My Great Grandmother indicated that she was taking me to church, so that I can grow up and be a real man.  She read the Bible to me on a regular basis.  I attended Bethel Church of God in Christ in Dayton, Ohio.  My Great Grandmother stated to me that she was raising me because my mother suffered from postpartum depression.  This is a mental illness that affects pregnant mothers worldwide.  My mother made a decision to take me to my Grandmother’s house and I had a lot of fun.

        At first, I did not understand what was going on with my mother at that time.  I went through a lot of changes myself because on May 30, 1972, I went to live with my mother and afterwards, I started drinking and smoking marijuana at the age of 7 years old.  However, I was born with alcohol inside of my bloodstream because my mother was drinking alcohol during that time.  My mother was also responsible for taking me to church on a regular basis herself.  One mistake that my mother made was trying to change my name.  My birth name is Anthony Joseph Hopkins.  She changed my name because she was married to a man that was not my own biological father. 

        I had to make changes to my own school records because I told my school counselor that the name that I was using Anthony Joseph Russell was not my real name.  I officially changed my name because it did not make sense what my mother had done to me as a person.  My own mother tried to alter my identity.  I have forgiven my mother for what she had done to me.  I will admit that I felt ashamed about having that name.  I used to examine my birth certificate and social security card and say to myself, why did Mom do this to me? 

        I have read the Bible over and over for the past 40 years.  I have always wondered why all of the bad things happened to me as a person.  My own stepfather stabbed me when I was a senior in high school.  I had to protect my own little brother on November 25, 1985.  If I didn’t put my arm in the way shielding my little brother, he would have been dead.  Therefore, I got stabbed with a hook knife.  To be perfectly honest, I almost bled to death from my injuries. 

        I will admit that there are things that I had done to my own mother and stepfather when I was much younger.  Like they say in Ephesians 6:1, Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right.  There are times when I was a child that I even resented my own stepfather.  I even got into a fist fight with him immediately after he stabbed me with the hook knife that he had in his possession at the time.  There are times when I have actual flashbacks from the things that I had to endure in my personal life. 

        Finally, I am very sorry for mentioning all of this, but I have to tell the truth.  My name is Anthony Joseph Hopkins, and I am a 57 year old man from Dayton, Ohio.  I used to live in Charlotte, NC for 12 years.  I have been incarcerated a total of 26 times within the past 21 years.  I graduated from the University of Toledo in Toledo, Ohio on June 12, 1993 and June 17, 1995 respectively.  There are times when I meditate about the past and there are times when my own family members argue with me about the past.  God loves me and this is all that matters to me right now.  I have come a very long way in my personal life. 

What Does It Mean being Myself?

     What does it mean being myself?  First, I want to inform all of you that I was born on Thursday June 24, 1965 at 7:30PM.  My mother was gifted.  I guess that since I had a C+ Grade Point Average in School, I thought everything was well.

Second, I want to say that It has taken me a lot longer to do things.  For example, I did not do very well in math in school.  I did very well in all of my other subjects in school except math.  As long as I know how to count my money, I am fine.  I cannot say that because God has other plans for me.  I mean!!  I might have to attend school again.

     Third, I want to inform all of you that I have changed a whole lot.  My overall behavior has changed because I do not argue with other people anymore.  I have to literally resolve all of my issues with other people.  God has helped me a lot!!  I know that I am a person, who has above average intelligence.  My therapist and I are working on a No Medication Approach.  The reason why the therapist would only like for me to write down everything that is feasible for me.

Fourth, I love listening to music.  I love listening to music with a meaning.  I am saying that I like listening to music that makes me think about how I have managed to earn a College Degree in Interdisciplinary Studies and Social Work.

     Fifth, I want to inform all of you that I am very intelligent.  I am a person who do not like to argue with the next person.  I am doing the best I can to listen to God.  I will admit that I have been dealing with my own issues for the past 13 years now.  I know that it is not very easy having Schizophrenia and Schizoid Affective Disorder at the same time.  I have to be perfectly frank by saying that it has not been easy dealing with a mental illness.

     Sixth, I want to say that there are people who use vulgarity towards me.  I know that this is a very serious problem that affects millions of people worldwide.  I know that I am a person; who likes to listen to other people talk.

 I have been sad because my mother and sister passed away six years ago.  I really accept what people say.  However, if I say something in return, certain people do not accept what I tell them.  This is the reason why I prefer to be by myself for a while.  What does it mean being myself?  I want to inform all of you that I always listen to other people, more than they listen to me.

Finally, I want to inform all of you that I have had success in my life.  For Instance, I have written three books in my life.  I have written two books in one year.

 My mother is very proud of me for being the person that I am today.  Although I do not have any children of my own.  This is because my mother wanted me to have children before she died.  Mom and I used to talk at great length every single day.  My sister wanted me to go with her everywhere she went.  I miss both of them!!

In Conclusion, I want to say that I am still learning about life as well as the meaning of it.  I am a changed man.  I have been clean and sober for 33 years now.  I have been keeping to myself as of late because I have been spending time with God.  May 2, 1990 is my date of sobriety.  May 2, 1990 was on a Wednesday back then.  I went to treatment one month later.

I have a lot of physical problems right now.  I had back surgery last year before the Thanksgiving Holiday.  I have been having back problems for over 25 years now.  I have had too many health problems since Sunday July 25, 1982.  What happened on that day is that I had a Grand Mal Seizure.  Otherwise, I am doing fine.  Please keep me and my family members in your prayers.  Thanks!!

Jeremiah 17:10 Meaning and Interpretation

        Good Day Everyone!!  I want to inform you that I really like this Bible verse because It helps me to understand myself.  I want to say that I have to focus on myself, and my behavior.  I know that I have to learn how to become discipline.  I want to express myself by saying that God knows exactly how I am supposed to conduct myself as a man.

        Next, I have been dealing with people, who are not saved.  God knows about my overall behavior.  I want to mention that my behavior has changed a whole lot during the past 25 years.  For example, I have been listening to the wrong type of voices.  I know that I am not perfect.  I understand that God knows who we are as people.  He even knows exactly how long we are going to live.  He even knows how we are going to act, and conduct myself.

        However, I will admit that God has been disappointed with me for quite sometimes.  I want to really stop acting like a child at times.  Whenever, I use language that is not suitable.  This is the reason why I am a very quiet person.  I have been clean and sober for 32.5 years now.  I cannot be around people who drink alcohol and smoke marijuana as well as cigarettes.   

        This Bible verse makes me think about my behavior.  I am going to focus on myself.  I know that I have been dealing with the wrong people.  I have been helping people who would rather stay inside of the mud.   I should be working rather than having stress in my life.  God really knows me more than anyone else.  I know that all behavior is learned. 

        Finally, I have been staying in isolation.  When I have to resolve things from my past.  I will admit that I have watching time passing away.  This is a very serious problem for me.  I guess, I would rather be all by myself.  God will have to help each and every one of us individually.  God Bless You All!!  God is searching our hearts individually and collectively.   God knows all about us.  There are times that we are holding ourselves hostage.  It is time for all of us to join Jesus Christ.

Luke 6:27-28; And What it means to all People? By Anthony Hopkins April 11, 2022.

       Luke 6:27-28 Is very hard to do for some people.  Society itself has changed during the past 40 years.  I remember when I was a little boy, my grandparents did not want me fighting anyone.  My grandparents wanted me to heed the words that are inside of the Bible.  My mother did not like it when I used to let other boys beat me up all of the time.

 Jesus is teaching in Luke 6:27-28 says: But to you who are listening I say Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, and bless those who mistreat you.  In Luke’s account of the Scriptures is different than in Matthew, Mark, and John.  I want to be honest that this is going to take practice because people are not heeding God’s Word.  These particular Bible Verses reminds me of the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5-7.  Matthews account is much easier to grasp than in Luke.  I want to say that things have changed dramatically during the past 40 years. 

I am willing to allow someone to smack me on my face.  I want to inform all of you that people are no longer using their hands to fight with.  They have resorted to using guns and knives to defend themselves right now. 

Luke 6:27-40

King James Version

²⁷ But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,

²⁸ Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.

²⁹ And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not to take thy coat also.

³⁰ Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.

³¹ And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

³² For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.

³³ And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.

³⁴ And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.

³⁵ But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.

³⁶ Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.

³⁷ Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be.

       I want to inform all of you that this is going to take a lot of practice and this means that I will have to modify my behavior just to appease another person.  I would rather stay away from people who are violent.  It makes me angry to see other people oppressed like it is in Ukraine.  Russia is killing their own people.  Those people are not bothering Russia.  However, they are fighting back with the same weapons that Russia is using.  Russia is retreating because they have been defeated by their fellow Ukrainians.  In the United States, violence happens every 3 seconds.  I know in the United States, we fought people from the Middle East for over 20 years.  Whereas, people have been killing each other over senseless things.
