Have time for Christ? ‭‭ ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭6:10‭-‬18 says, Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless. 😊❤❤

_It's been nearly a decade since the spark left DK's eyes._ _There was a time when he was on top of the world, with his name in every arcade; a time when opportunity flowed like wine and the world was bright and sweet as a banana._ _He still remembers pouring his heart and soul into his "Country" project, inspired by his old co-star's monumental success in the platforming genre. He did so well, it wasn't a surprise when management green-lit a sequel. What WAS surprising was that he'd been pulled from the starring role, and was now little more then a glorified prop._ _He was too old, the producer said. The Suits wanted someone who'd appeal more to the youth._ _By the time they finally let him take back the reigns of the series in "Country Returns," 2D platformers had long passed out of popularity. It was far from the success of his past, but DK was certain if he could just convince audiences to give him a chance, he'd shine as bright as he once had. So when he heard talk of a new console amongst the higher-ups, he burned every professional favour he had left to convince management to let him helm a launch title. The resulting performance he delivered was without a doubt the finest of his career._ _It would surely have earned Kong the recognition he so craved, had it not been trapped on such an underselling console._ _Management hasn't returned his calls since. His old co-star continues to find him cameos and minor roles in what projects he can, but it just isn't the same. And every night he can't escape the gnawing notion that maybe... it won't ever be the way it was again. After all, where else can one go from the top of the world but down?_ *TL;DR: DK not OK*
