    Case in point: I took family out grocery shopping. Before we left I told daughter I was going to have some fun with her cell phone. On the way to the store I struck up a conversation about getting a swimming pool. Later, when we got home, my wife's smart pad and my daughter's phone both had new ads about companies that install swimming pools. Yes, cell phones do listen in, even when turned off.

Then, turn switch off by tapping left. Security and Privacy are 5 sections down on settings or 12 buttons down on settings. Make sure you scroll down to More Privacy Settings.

      Hey there, God loves you❤️, please read everything thank you.😊🙏
      Discover True Hope and Unconditional Love
      Hey there! Did you know that God loves you more than you can imagine? He created you and desires a close relationship with you. The Bible tells us in John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." 1 John 4:9-10 says, "This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins." ❤️📖
      Our Problem:
      We all make mistakes, which the Bible calls sin. Sin separates us from God and creates chaos in our lives. Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." This sin separates us from God and leads to spiritual death. Romans 6:23 says, "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
      God's Solution:
      Here’s the incredible part: God loves us so much that He sent Jesus, His Son, to solve our sin problem. Romans 5:8 tells us, 'But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.' Jesus lived a perfect life and willingly died on the cross for our sins. Then He rose from the dead, demonstrating His power over sin and death.🙏✝️
      What We Need to Do:
      God offers us a fresh start and eternal life through Jesus. To receive this gift, we must repent-turn away from our sins, believe in Jesus, and choose to follow Him. Acts 3:19 says, 'Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.' (Romans 10:9 assures us, 'If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.🕊️🙌
      Reasons to believe:
      1. Countless individuals, including me, have encountered God in deeply personal ways-through answered prayers, supernatural phenomena, miraculous healings, and transformative encounters that defy logical or scientific explanation affirming the existence of a higher power, which we believe to be God. Furthermore, witnessing demonic activity and the reality of spiritual warfare underscores the existence of a supernatural realm. These experiences not only highlight the battle between good and evil but also demonstrate the necessity of seeking God's protection and love. These experiences often bring a profound sense of awareness, peace, purpose, and assurance of God’s presence and love in their lives.🌟✨
      "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:10
      2. Life Transformation: People from diverse backgrounds and circumstances have experienced radical life changes through faith in Jesus Christ. They’ve overcome deep-seated addictions, healed from emotional wounds, and found renewed hope and direction. Their stories of transformation stand as powerful testimony to the life-changing power of the gospel.🌿🌈
      Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!" 2 Corinthians 5:17
      3. Historical Evidence: The life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ are not only central to Christian faith but are also supported by substantial historical evidence. Numerous non-Christian historical sources and early Christian writings corroborate key events, affirming the credibility of Jesus’ existence, crucifixion, and the empty tomb.📜🌍
      4. Fulfillment of Prophecies: Jesus fulfilled numerous prophecies from the Old Testament Scriptures that were written centuries before His birth. These prophecies include specific details about His birthplace, lineage, suffering, death, and resurrection. The fulfillment of these prophecies provides compelling evidence of Jesus’ divine identity as the promised Messiah.🌟✝️
      5. Logical Consistency: Faith in God through Jesus Christ offers a coherent worldview that addresses humanity’s deepest existential questions. It provides a framework for understanding the meaning of life, the reality of suffering, and the possibility of forgiveness and redemption. This faith does not require ignoring facts but rather integrates historical, philosophical, and experiential evidence into a compelling narrative of truth and hope.🧠💡
      6. Transformed Communities: Throughout history and even today, communities of believers in Jesus Christ have demonstrated remarkable unity, sacrificial love, and positive societal impact. From charitable works and social justice initiatives to advancements in education and healthcare, the gospel has inspired individuals and communities to live out their faith in tangible ways that benefit society as a whole.🌍❤️
      7. Personal Relationship with God: Beyond mere intellectual belief, faith in Jesus Christ opens the door to a deep, personal connection with God. Through prayer, worship, and the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit, believers engage in ongoing communion with God. This relationship brings profound spiritual fulfillment, guidance, and an increasing awareness of His presence in their lives. It's not just about knowing about God but experiencing His love and guidance firsthand, shaping a meaningful and transformative journey of faith.🫂❤️‍🔥
      8. The Signs of the Times and the Imminent Return of Jesus Christ: The Bible foretells many signs that will precede the return of Jesus Christ, often referred to as the "end times." In Matthew 24, Jesus Himself spoke of wars, famines, earthquakes, and increased wickedness as signs of the approaching end of this age. Today, we see many of these signs unfolding before our eyes, reminding us that His return is imminent. The Rapture, a moment when believers will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air, could happen at any time, ushering in the 7 year Tribulation-a period of great distress on earth. These events are not meant to inspire fear but to encourage us to be spiritually vigilant, ready, and rooted in our faith. Knowing that Jesus is coming very soon motivates us to live in holiness, share the gospel urgently, and eagerly await the fulfillment of God's promises. The signs we see today serve as a wake-up call to turn our hearts fully to God and to help others do the same, for "the time is near" (Revelation 1:3).🌍⏳✨
      Revelation 1:3 states:
      "Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near."
      Simple Prayer of Response:
      Heavenly Father,
      Thank You for loving me unconditionally and for sending Your Son, Jesus, to die for my sins. I confess that I’ve made mistakes, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe that Jesus died on the cross and rose again to give me new life. I invite Him into my heart as my Savior and Lord. Please help me to follow You faithfully and to live according to Your will each day.
      In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏✝️
      If you prayed this prayer sincerely, congratulations! You’ve begun a wonderful journey with God. Here are some steps you can take to grow in your faith:
      1. Find a Church: Look for a local church, where you can learn more about God, worship with others, and build supportive relationships. I recommend the Catholic Church because Im a Catholic Christian.⛪🤝
      2. Read the Bible: Start reading the Bible regularly to discover more about God’s love, His promises, and how He wants you to live.📖🕊️
      3. Pray: Spend time in prayer every day, talking to God and listening for His guidance and comfort.🙌🌿
      4. Connect with Others: Surround yourself with fellow believers who can encourage and support you in your spiritual journey.🌟🤗
      5. Live Out Your Faith: Seek opportunities to serve others, show kindness, and share God’s love with those around you.🌍❤️

    I have an android tablet, and I can be having a conversation with my husband like what we feel like eating over the weekend, and I'll get ads specific to the foods we were talking about. When I discussed over my landline with a neighbour, the trees that need to be trimmed in my yard that hang over her roof....I'll then get ads for tree trimming tools from our local hardware stores. I thought I was paranoid and it was a coincidence, but since I rarely believe in coincidence...I now know I'm being heard.
