Good for you!!! I was in my 60’s. I am 72 now. I have been fully awakened for 7 or more years. I find it wonderful for me….& sad (for them) That they waste their lives the way they do. Angry, selfish, jealous, deceptive,hateful etc. It must be hell on earth to go around the way they do! Yes, rotten to the core pretty much describes them. The worst part…… they want to “make you” just like they are. Their goal is to DESTROY. SO!!! Avoid at all costs these demons of doom. Their master is Satan, make no mistake. Never allow their darkness dim your “LIGHT”> Many, many tried their hardest to ruin my life….Because of a fantastic husband & God, I am alive & well today. BELIEVE ME, that was NOT theplan of the “haters (fake people”)for me. It took a lot for me to see what these creatures were up to, because I was WAY TOO TRUSTING…. NOT ANYMORE> Keep your circle small. Trust & obey God. Enjoy life, TOXIC FREE❤ Blesings😊
@@WisconsinWandererSorry about that Wisconsin. My ex deliberately and intentionally set out to cancel me largely succeeded. Many people we both know and whom I thought were my friends were not. A painful lesson!
Thank you for sharing that it’s your family who does this to you. It’s the same for me. I’ve been told “You’re too sensitive”! I was second guessing myself but I’m finally understanding that they just don’t care about me.
I have given to many chances over many years suffering all kinds of emotional abuse ect. Now I'm a damaged broken man left with problems. But I'm going to move my life in a new direction and create my own new life soon.
I’ve had to walk away from many people who deliberately gaslight me to watch the pain of betrayal wash over my face, this betrayal and hurt is only given by a true psychopath
You have to know that they have done more harm to themselves than to you. To know that you are deliberately evil while pretending to be decent costs them a lot of energy and self-contempt.
Wow, so absolutely spot on! I was married to a narcissist and encountered another one along the way.... I've said it before, this is what children should be learning in school.... It would save a lot of wasted time and heartache!
@@privateuno8897 I was so totally unprepared for life... It took a lot of heartache along the way to understand that so many people have agenda's and that their words did not match their actions. I was naive and although I now have wisdom, it was all very hard earned... I wish I would have heard this level of advice...
@@craftlover9702 Same here. I was a devoted husband and father for 13 years. I got stabbed in the back, insulted, betrayed, and degraded many times over the years. One day I woke up and walked away. She cried, begged, promised, and pleaded with me for years. I never went back. I have had a great life since that time and am now married to a wonderful and devoted wife. Never settle, guys. Find your inner strength and the world will fall before your feet.
I had the same dreadful experience. For sure it's easier to learn through bitter experience, I just wonder how you could teach this to a young person in such a way that wouldn't make them too distrusting so they missed out on something good. I also suspect that hormones and evolved behaviour would take over. Young people are pre programmed to breed so would they listen? If you haven't met a narcissist and were brought up in a loving family you can't imagine what abusive people will take from you.
OMG, this is so true. I'm just glad that I finally was able to sever my need for an emotional attachment with just about anybody. I cut off my ties with my fraternity and sorority associations, and with the ones I realized that when I needed company, I was always the one having to drive very far to join them, especially when they never offered to drive to my place and meet me halfway at all. Whenever they threw a party, I always showed up bearing gifts. But when my son graduated from high school and college, the ones I thought were my closest friends always had an excuse for not coming. I never would want to feel that pathetic needy/obliging/expecting feeling again.
Psychopathic, narcassistic, madness and badness. *I am now at peace with only those special people in my life. Mr Hopkins is a very wise man. This is one of the most helpful posts I have ever heard.
Forgiveness for a toxic person is useless, since they will take it that you are willing to continue to put up with their selfish betrayals. Forgiveness is best applied as a bank would to a deadbeat loan. The person has proven who they are, best to write them off and not give them a chance to do the same thing again.
@@allenvayner4987no incorrect actually. True Forgiveness by the bible is where the person seeking forgiveness is truly contrite and provides penance for their wrong doing in genuine way. In this way - they truly regret and change their behaviour - then they qualify for forgiveness from the person that was on the receiving end of the wrong.
I needed to hear this. I've been far too trusting because i struggle to believe that people get pleasure from deliberatey hurting others. I've given people too much of my kindness, time, and energy and believed that they would see the error of their ways and not continuously hurt me. I just needed boundaries all this time. Schools need to teach about boundaries, especially when parents were never taught them.
Yes gill,here is my experiences, i wish i knew those boundaries i so wished i was taught from my peers , i too thought as you did only to be used and taken advantage of,i have been like this all my life,i thought being kind was the most generous gift i could give,thinking i am doing good to folk,i have paid so very dearly much to my cost not only in monetary terms but far more than that value,my time and effort to people i should not have,for far to long and many,many times run around folk who i thought are my friends even sacrificing my own family needs,not all but many,the feeling of damage to oneself is incalculable, it is mixed up with the realisation of guilt and punishment of letting yourself be used with ones own kindness exploited to the max ,i am in perpetual torture to myself because it seems impossible to let go and forget my time love and kindness used and abused to my own health, body and mind,so much that vengeance i know is wrong to have yet feels so rewarding only in thought, it never leaves me,but that alone eats away at my soul,anyones soul like a cancer,in writing this the feeling of revenge is haunting me,i want those using basterds to feel what i felt after realising the quantity of being hurt,hurts an understatement,the only comparison i can only guess at is how it must feel after being raped,captured used and ravaged, the very essence of ones being desecrated, tossed away and disgarded,no longer any use to be had once one has served your purpose and then deserted as fast as possible, distancing widely, not a thought of remorse from them,only the pleasure of the benifit extracted,sucked out like a vacuum packed item,damn their souls,it matters one jott,no conscience at all,pehaps glee,satisfaction that they are the beneficiary of their deceit and cunning ,no boundaries at play there its kept hidden right next to the box marked how to exploit good people.
I am right there with you! Keep strong and have courage. It's a daily fight to keep boundaries but it's survival, you have too protect yourself. 2025 will be a better year for us :)
Problem is, sick toxic people don't SEE boundaries and don't really care. Some get paid in favors to do what they do. They're control freaks who want to make all the decisions. They have money power and people power.
No, you do NOT wish you had a parent like Anthony Hopkins. He is estranged from his daughter Abigail Hopkins for very good reasons. He has deceived her and not shown any interest in her for the most of her life. She has numerous times tried to establish a relationship with her father, but the interest is not mutual. He has said publicly he doesn't even know if Abigail has any children - and he doesn't care! Hopkins is a cold-hearted narcissist who only cares about himself and his career. The voice is created by means if AI - and I doubt the producer(s) of this video has received any written consent from Anthony Hopkins to publish these videos in his name or to using his voice.
Last week I was playing with a cat and got scratched in the process so I left. Today I seen the same cat attempting to play with me again, thought of this video and said "Never again!" and kept walking with my integrity intact.
I was shut down for fifteen years, yielded a wall around me so high that no person could get through. I let go and I am much happier. Let others get through. I am still guarded but am getting there.
Guards up⚔️ this year if anyone messes with me then my intuition is my super power much before they even want to do something I can do a lot to protect myself ...
I'm glad that more and more of these types of videos are coming out to awaken people who are ready to evolve, and to validate the actions of those who have already taken the steps to stop relying on others for their happiness and to validate their self-worth.
Thanks! Very helpful and encouraging! Yes, mistakes can be forgiven but intentional harm must be handled differently! Set boundaries and choose dignity over despair!
When someone takes unnecessary bad actions against another person shows what is their capability of a cold-hearted person and smiles, say thank you then walk away. Never trust them again.
Thank you. I foolishly gave him a second chance which he swiftly defiled. Eyes fully open now, I no longer shall permit anyone to bring to me harm. I forgive him, he has a long journey to walk upon. I leave him, as I turn away and take my journey far away from the toxicity he gives with intent and cruelly
Life can often “FAIR WEATHER FRIENDS “ , it often comes at the expense of self worth. Happiness , Joy and Love ❤️ in this New Year. Life is an endless journey of Growth.
Take time to heal and move on with the wisdom from it all. I am taking responsibility for my own actions in it all. This message reaffirms what I went through for years. Thank You Anthony
I made the mistake of letting a neighbor back into my life a second time who intentionally tried to put me in jail. This was a huge mistake on my part as I was opening the door for her to violate me a second time. I thought the lesson was about forgiving her, but I was dead wrong. Now I have learned to shut her out of my life completely and honor my own protection and boundaries. This is an important message.
I only recently came across this channel and it's helped me reinforce the way I was brought up as the right way. The struggle I deal with is loving a amazing person with Bipolar
There is so much information and help nowadays on this disorder. In 1968/9 there was nothing and nobody spoke about it or explained what happened to my dear beautiful fragile sister. Best wishes to you.
It’s also a Godsend from wonderful people like you, who make channels like this to aid in that strength. Your message affirms that we can all take solace in the belief of good choices when we deny them access to negative influences and intentional behavior. Thank you, ❤
The art of life , Mr. Hopkins it takes someone who has indured pain and want to heal and able to step into that healing process. I have no doubt that the words of wisdom will make a difference in most and for this I thank you deeply from the bottom of my heart.
I want to extend my deepest gratitude and appreciation to "Old Soul" for the incredible videos they produce. Their content consistently resonates with viewers, offering insightful and thought-provoking perspectives. Each video is a testament to their dedication, creativity, and passion for storytelling. As a viewer, I have been profoundly impacted by the quality and depth of their work. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, "Old Soul," for sharing your unique voice and enriching our lives with your remarkable videos. Best regards, Gavin Dallas
"You can't move forward while holding on to the weight of the past." (Anthony Hopkins ❤) A fundamental truth most of us won't meet in the early stages of their lives! Never mix up/confound pernicious attacks on your person/soul with thoughtless mistakes/remarks unintentionally made in a bad mood/moment! "A friend might hurt, an enemy will kill you." Yet finding out the difference ain't always that easy, for lying /deception is common coin in a godless world we are living in- devoid of honesty and dependability. Therefore: "Be on the watch, pray to the Most High God for the wisdom you need to find out the difference!"
Hvala za to pojasnilo! Res je,če jasno postaviš meje,posebno tistim,ki so te prizadeli,s to odločnostjo zavaruješ sebe in več ne pustiš da ti še kdaj škodujejo!
So. Forgiveness is a blessing for me, not for them. I've never thought of it like that before. What a liberating idea. Forgiveness is a cleansing of my own mind, body, and spirit from hatred, anger, revenge, and feelings of negatively that that such abuse brings. It's me that benefits most, not my enemy's. They benefit from repentance and a change of Hart, which cleanses them by the power of the Holy Spirit. 🙏
Try that on someone who continuously does you harm… then see how you go with that….. even an animal that is continuously mistreated would not put up with that.
@damianmousley2098 Walk away from such people. Have nothing to do with them. Find new friends who are good people. Even if that means moving somewhere new.
People who are mosley close like family, hurt, abuse and insult, because they already knowing you're always there and going nowhere.( family is family)And If you object their behavior, they simply say :" there is no doubt that I LOVE YOU."
Our love would entitle them to exploit us further. Cruel people would not accept their wrongs and play victim sometimes. Keeping a safe distance is the only way
I wish i had read Gods word on this subject and listened to his words.... Allthe Glory to God also for leading me to this video,,, I had 64 years of hurt and betrayals which took its damage as you can imagine,,,,I thought I was doing the right thing tp stay... but the results are here.....Thank you too,Mr Hopkins for that enlightening video,,,, Surely it will help somone who needs it now,,,, It helped me in ways i cant express here... .. much Love ....
Boy did I need to hear this today. Wow. I knew all these things but have felt like Im MEANT to teach my covert narcissistic husband(who TRICKED ME 28 yrs ago) how to LOVE. Im done dealing with the consequences it causes only ME. Thank you for this message🙏. Sending 💕🙏😘🤗2all😇
I needed to hear this, today! However, I am grateful that he was not able to damage me because of my Strength. I am so Grateful and Humbled by the Grace of God! Thank you for this Empowering Message!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for this warning and reminder. Sometimes the love comes to me and I think I can return because of love between each other. But they've had me let my guard down so many times just to hurt me as much as they can and I can't take it anymore. I made my last remarks and I'm doing my best to stay as far away from those monsters as possible
What if was a long time employer…. That intentionally bullied and betrayed. I lost a career and home and confidence in my mid fifties, with my life turned upside down by the shock, loss, and trauma. Have had chronic anxiety and mental health issues since. There is no “allowing them back in my life”. There is just ongoing grief and anxiety
Be glad that you are free of that boss. It’s bad but not as bad as it being a person you loved like a family member or a marriage partner. They are difficult if not impossible to let go of or get rid of. Get rid of the anxiety by learning the box method of breathing exercises. This cured almost instantly my lifelong anxiety problem that was caused by these types of people. Doing this breathing exercise releases good chemicals into your body like endorphins & other calming chemicals. This has been proven by Neuroscientists. Here is the simple technique that can be done anywhere & without anyone knowing. 1-Sit up straight and breathe in deeply, through your nose to the count of 3. 2-Hold your breath to the count of 3. 3-Breathe out through your mouth to the count of 4. 4-Hold your breath to the count of 3. Repeat. I prayed to God to get rid of the crippling anxiety and a Christian Counsellor taught me this. It will get rid of your anxiety too guaranteed.Anxiety is our body’s natural response to danger or a threat. Our bodies react by giving us a shot of adrenaline to prompt us to alertness and action. A chronic state of danger can give us chronic anxiety until we get out of the danger. Anxiety reaction can become automatic so counteract it with box breathing exercises as well as other methods of dealing with the problem. God bless you always.🙏♥️
Yes, and... sometimes bad people aren't easily removed from your community, or letting them go means letting go of an entire community. Then, you need to find a way dealing with such people. Then, sometimes the best is to find THEIR weaknesses and play them preemptively. It works like a charm.
I had the unfortunate experience of dating two narcissists back to back following the death of my husband. The second one was devastating. If this is your pattern, my advice is to get yourself into therapy as soon as possible and figure out why you accept this behavior to begin with. For me, it was years of unresolved childhood trauma and never receiving grief counseling after the accidental death of my husband. I thought I was doing fine, obviously I was not.
Please be kind to yourself....Narcs are EXCELLENT groomers and you were vulnerable (prob very kind, thoughtful, loving, accepting etc) ❤I'm sorry you lost your husband X Take care- you'll make it 💐
This talk is based on the presumption that the person who caused the intentional harm is wanting to be back in your life, and that you have the choice to say no. Many betrayals and intentional harm do not have this element. Instead the person/organisation has harmed and walked away forever. The trauma of this is deeply painful and damaging
I have a hard time believing someone so sadistically destructive would have the audacity to "return to the scene of the crime," if you will. It seems cowards like that couldn't face the truth.
Walking away is a sign of courage holding on to toxic things shows that a person neverwants to heal and remain in toxicity.....I am thankful for all the toxic PPL in my life bcoz I am never gonna easily trust any of u and u showed me which path is right .....I gotta nothing to do with ur foolishness just beware that I will not have to face the consequences of ur foolishness that's all that matters after this ....I protect myself God protects me God loves me thats it .
A wonderful message of clarity delivered so eloquently. Just because you have an open heart that loves unconditionally it does not mean that that you don't show those who wish to diminish your love and light the strength and force and power of the unconditional love you hold for yourself. Hold zero tolerance for anyone who wishes to diminiish you in any way.💗💗💗.
It took me YEARS to accept that certain people are rotten to the core & they are NOT sorry for hurting you.
They took a lot from themselves and don't care either.
Stay away these people aer EVIL feels so good to not be around them
what you say is the truth unfortunately, my ex wife who i dearly loved just gutted me to my soul.

When someone takes unnecessary bad actions against another person shows what is their capability of a cold-hearted person and smiles, say thank you then walk away. Never trust them again.
Thank you. I foolishly gave him a second chance which he swiftly defiled. Eyes fully open now, I no longer shall permit anyone to bring to me harm. I forgive him, he has a long journey to walk upon. I leave him, as I turn away and take my journey far away from the toxicity he gives with intent and cruelly
Thank you very much Sir Hopkins
Love the sound of his voice
Life can often “FAIR WEATHER FRIENDS “ , it often comes at the expense of self worth.
Happiness , Joy and Love ❤️ in this New Year.
Life is an endless journey of Growth.
Take time to heal and move on with the wisdom from it all. I am taking responsibility for my own actions in it all. This message reaffirms what I went through for years.
Thank You
Anthony
I made the mistake of letting a neighbor back into my life a second time who intentionally tried to put me in jail. This was a huge mistake on my part as I was opening the door for her to violate me a second time. I thought the lesson was about forgiving her, but I was dead wrong. Now I have learned to shut her out of my life completely and honor my own protection and boundaries. This is an important message.
I only recently came across this channel and it's helped me reinforce the way I was brought up as the right way. The struggle I deal with is loving a amazing person with Bipolar
There is so much information and help nowadays on this disorder. In 1968/9 there was nothing and nobody spoke about it or explained what happened to my dear beautiful fragile sister. Best wishes to you.
This is about justice! They will never reenter my life.
It’s also a Godsend from wonderful people like you, who make channels like this to aid in that strength. Your message affirms that we can all take solace in the belief of good choices when we deny them access to negative influences and intentional behavior.
Thank you, ❤
This video was the right one for me today! Thank you from mycket heart!❤
Thank you Sir Anthony Hopkins. I needed to hear that.
Happy New Year. 🙂

Well said!
"You can't move forward while holding on to the weight of the past." (Anthony Hopkins ❤)
A fundamental truth most of us won't meet in the early stages of their lives! Never mix up/confound pernicious attacks on your person/soul with thoughtless mistakes/remarks unintentionally made in a bad mood/moment!
"A friend might hurt, an enemy will kill you." Yet finding out the difference ain't always that easy, for lying /deception is common coin in a godless world we are living in- devoid of honesty and dependability.
Therefore: "Be on the watch, pray to the Most High God for the wisdom you need to find out the difference!"
♥️Thank you Mr. Anthony♥️Wonderful video♥️ and have a wonderful happy new year♥️
THIS IS BRILLIANT. It sets aside the guilt trips that are put upon you to accept abnormal harmful behaviour. This should be taught in schools.
Hvala za to pojasnilo! Res je,če jasno postaviš meje,posebno tistim,ki so te prizadeli,s to odločnostjo zavaruješ sebe in več ne pustiš da ti še kdaj škodujejo!
EXACTLY RUN
So. Forgiveness is a blessing for me, not for them. I've never thought of it like that before. What a liberating idea. Forgiveness is a cleansing of my own mind, body, and spirit from hatred, anger, revenge, and feelings of negatively that that such abuse brings. It's me that benefits most, not my enemy's.
They benefit from repentance and a change of Hart, which cleanses them by the power of the Holy Spirit. 🙏
Try that on someone who continuously does you harm… then see how you go with that….. even an animal that is continuously mistreated would not put up with that.
@damianmousley2098
Walk away from such people. Have nothing to do with them. Find new friends who are good people. Even if that means moving somewhere new.
☀️💛God has given me The Bright Morning Star
beautiful believers also are in this housebof worship. after years of Jezebel spirit abuse, I exited to safety in loving churches
People who are mosley close like family, hurt, abuse and insult, because they already knowing you're always there and going nowhere.( family is family)And If you object their behavior, they simply say :" there is no doubt that
I LOVE YOU."
Our love would entitle them to exploit us further. Cruel people would not accept their wrongs and play victim sometimes. Keeping a safe distance is the only way
I wish i had read Gods word on this subject and listened to his words.... Allthe Glory to God also for leading me to this video,,, I had 64 years of hurt and betrayals which took its damage as you can imagine,,,,I thought I was doing the right thing tp stay... but the results are here.....Thank you too,Mr Hopkins for that enlightening video,,,, Surely it will help somone who needs it now,,,, It helped me in ways i cant express here... .. much Love ....
This is the out so I could breath and live again. ❤
False hope of reconciliation. I kept trying to stop bad behavior. They showed up in disguise.
Boy did I need to hear this today. Wow. I knew all these things but have felt like Im MEANT to teach my covert narcissistic husband(who TRICKED ME 28 yrs ago) how to LOVE. Im done dealing with the consequences it causes only ME. Thank you for this message🙏. Sending 💕🙏😘🤗2all😇
It’s tough to walk away from old friends but when they say certain things it’s unacceptable and therefore it all over .
Perfectly said sir 💗💚
The Bible teaches us to FORGIVE 🙏
I wont ever FORGET !
I needed to hear this, today! However, I am grateful that he was not able to damage me because of my Strength. I am so Grateful and Humbled by the Grace of God! Thank you for this Empowering Message!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’ve lived this more than once. Thank you.
Thanks, I m running from one right now....but I have to fight my mother for it. Thank u for encouragement
Thank u for ur words
Thank you for this warning and reminder. Sometimes the love comes to me and I think I can return because of love between each other. But they've had me let my guard down so many times just to hurt me as much as they can and I can't take it anymore. I made my last remarks and I'm doing my best to stay as far away from those monsters as possible
What if was a long time employer…. That intentionally bullied and betrayed. I lost a career and home and confidence in my mid fifties, with my life turned upside down by the shock, loss, and trauma. Have had chronic anxiety and mental health issues since.
There is no “allowing them back in my life”. There is just ongoing grief and anxiety
Be glad that you are free of that boss. It’s bad but not as bad as it being a person you loved like a family member or a marriage partner. They are difficult if not impossible to let go of or get rid of. Get rid of the anxiety by learning the box method of breathing exercises. This cured almost instantly my lifelong anxiety problem that was caused by these types of people.
Doing this breathing exercise releases good chemicals into your body like endorphins & other calming chemicals. This has been proven by Neuroscientists.
Here is the simple technique that can be done anywhere & without anyone knowing.
1-Sit up straight and breathe in deeply, through your nose to the count of 3.
2-Hold your breath to the count of 3.
3-Breathe out through your mouth to the count of 4.
4-Hold your breath to the count of 3.
Repeat.
I prayed to God to get rid of the crippling anxiety and a Christian Counsellor taught me this. It will get rid of your anxiety too guaranteed.Anxiety is our body’s natural response to danger or a threat. Our bodies react by giving us a shot of adrenaline to prompt us to alertness and action. A chronic state of danger can give us chronic anxiety until we get out of the danger. Anxiety reaction can become automatic so counteract it with box breathing exercises as well as other methods of dealing with the problem.
God bless you always.🙏♥️
Amen and for the words spoken to protect the truth❤😊
Very wise words...From a very wise man...Amen.
Every woman needs to see this ❤
Every human needs to know this.
This made me cry 😢 thank you much i needed that reassurance. 🎉
Me too
Yes, and... sometimes bad people aren't easily removed from your community, or letting them go means letting go of an entire community. Then, you need to find a way dealing with such people. Then, sometimes the best is to find THEIR weaknesses and play them preemptively. It works like a charm.
I know what I deserve 😎 I will always live happily bcoz it was my grandpa's last wish before he left the world.
I had the unfortunate experience of dating two narcissists back to back following the death of my husband. The second one was devastating. If this is your pattern, my advice is to get yourself into therapy as soon as possible and figure out why you accept this behavior to begin with. For me, it was years of unresolved childhood trauma and never receiving grief counseling after the accidental death of my husband. I thought I was doing fine, obviously I was not.
Please be kind to yourself....Narcs are EXCELLENT groomers and you were vulnerable (prob very kind, thoughtful, loving, accepting etc) ❤I'm sorry you lost your husband X Take care- you'll make it 💐
Increase ur knowledge on how to deal with narcissistic PPL there are books available be strong don't let anyone make u feel weak for no reason 👍....
YES 🙌 THAT IS THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH 🎉❤
This talk is based on the presumption that the person who caused the intentional harm is wanting to be back in your life, and that you have the choice to say no. Many betrayals and intentional harm do not have this element. Instead the person/organisation has harmed and walked away forever. The trauma of this is deeply painful and damaging
Yeppppeeeeeeers, it's the majority of incidents. Those are all the people I've met. Only a few i have turned down.
Be glad they left - you deserve real love ❤️
When listening to this speech, it felt as though l was in the same room being counseled with much care. Thank you. ❤️
Good karma is always better than bad karma...
Thankyou Sir ❤
I have a hard time believing someone so sadistically destructive would have the audacity to "return to the scene of the crime," if you will. It seems cowards like that couldn't face the truth.
Walking away is a sign of courage holding on to toxic things shows that a person neverwants to heal and remain in toxicity.....I am thankful for all the toxic PPL in my life bcoz I am never gonna easily trust any of u and u showed me which path is right .....I gotta nothing to do with ur foolishness just beware that I will not have to face the consequences of ur foolishness that's all that matters after this ....I protect myself God protects me God loves me thats it .
No One Gets A Second Chance With Me!
I understand entirely
💜thank you
Thanks Anthony, happy new year 😊
Thank you!!
I stand in God’s Word, and trust Him for His miraculous provision. Thank you Father. Where there’s no way, financially, you make a way 🙌🏻🙏🙏 Amen
Thankyou for your message teachings hallelujah Shalom Baruch HaShem prayer and meditation
Thank you for this video. I needed this today.
Thank you so much❤
THANK YOU FOR SHARING ABSOLUTELY TRUE EVERYTHING YOU ARE SAYING GOD BLESS 🙌 🙏🏻 ❤️
Thank You . just said it all and here i go with my new life ❤ Truly amazing and soo inspirational x
Yep have had to learn this lesson over and over again. Thank you 🧡✅️🤍🖤💯
A wonderful message of clarity delivered so eloquently. Just because you have an open heart that loves unconditionally it does not mean that that you don't show those who wish to diminish your love and light the strength and force and power of the unconditional love you hold for yourself. Hold zero tolerance for anyone who wishes to diminiish you in any way.💗💗💗.
