    She opened her heart and home, welcoming my brother and me, and setting the stage for me to flourish.
    It's because of her unwavering support that I've had the chance to passionately pursue my sport, travel globally, and realize my dreams on the world stage. Mom, this one's for you. Thank you for being my rock. I love you."

      She is the devil of the earth. Lineage of evil. The ⚪️ face colonizer is not absolved because they adopt black and indigenous children. That's like deforesting the earth and the planting a few trees(which they have actually done)They won't escape nor circumvent the universal law of karma.

      From all the nightmare stories that go on in foster care, it is heartwarming to see that these two people found each other and filled a void in each others hearts and lives. What a wonderful human being and mother this woman showed herself to be and what an awesome MAN so full of love and gratitude this young boy has grown up to be. Your story filled my eyes with tears. ❤❤ We live in a world where people turn everything into race. All I can see here is the color of love.🥲

    Met a young man, 22, who came to my home to do roof work. I was so impressed with him. We had a wonderful conversation, at which point I realized how mature, polite, and wise beyond his years he was. He took a few minutes to engage a 70 yr old woman in meaningful, deep conversation. When he walked out the door, I told him his mother raised him well. His response: "I was raised in foster care. I lucked out." Blessed be all the women and men who take in children not their own, who raise and love them into successful adulthood. ❤🙏❤

      I'm glad not all foster children come out totally traumatized by their life experiences. It's sad to admit. Sometimes foster care system takes these kids out of difficult homes but all we are doing is guaranteeing that their biological parents aren't harming them or putting them in danger. Sometimes it's simply an orphaned child with no family to take them in so they weren't even coming from a bad home to begin with. But entering the foster care system is no guarantee that they'll live a good life or have the chance at one. It just means they have a roof over their heads until they turn 18 and suddenly have to figure out how to support themselves. It's wild. I'm glad this young man is doing okay

      I never stopped her from searching her biological family...I've asked around too but have no leads. She was abandoned soon after birth and adoption was processed through Welfare Dept. I lost my husband almost 6 years ago, she isn't loved any less because he passed.

      🟫THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the Salvation of the last day that Christ brought in the second and last incarnation of the His new and holy name"
      (What God hates most of all are the superstitious practices of people, but many people still cannot let go of them, thinking that this superstitious practice is ordained by God, and even now have not completely let go of those. Even the day of worship (including the Sabbath, which the religious world observes) is hated by God; and even more God hates and rejects social relations and worldly relations between man and man. God did not even order the spring Festival and Christmas day that everyone knows, especially the toys and decorations such as pairs, fireworks, lanterns, Holy Communion, Christmas gifts and parties --Christmas party----aren't they idols in people's mindsthis? The breaking of bread on the Sabbath, Wine, and Fine Linen are even more idolatrous. All the various traditional Festival days known in China, such as "Dragon Heads--raising Day," the "Dragon Boat Festival," "Mid--Autumn Festival," the "Laba Festival," and New Year's day, and Holidays in the religious world such as Easter, day ofBaptism, and Christmas day, all of these arbitrary Feasts have been organized and passed down from ancient times to the present day by many people. The more the Satans congregate in a location, and the more obsolete and backward that place is, the worse the feudal customs become. Many of the Festivals in the religious world seem to show great originality and seem to create a bridge to God's work, but they are not--they are seen as Satan's bonds that bind people so that they cannot recognize the God--all that iscunning trick of Satan. Actually the work that God is doing today is mainly to deal with and eradicate the superstitious nature of people and completely change their mental outlook.)
      Almighty God said
      What GOD hates most of all superstitious practices of people, but many people still cannot let go of them, thinking that this superstitious practice is ordained by God, and even now have not completely let go of those. THINGS LIKE YOUTHS ARRANGE for WEDDING FESTIVALS and DOWRIES for BRIDES; MONEY GIFTS, FEASTS, and similar methods of CELEBRATION of BAD OCCASIONS; ancient INHERITED FORMULAS; ALL the NON--SIGNIFICANT SUPERSTITIONSwork PERFORMED in the NAME of the DEAD and the SEMONY of BURYING them, GOD HATES all of this MORE. 😪
      Even the DAY of WORSHIP (including the Sabbath, which the religious world observes) is HATES by GOD; and even MORE GOD HATES and REJECTS SOCIAL RELATIONSHIPS and WORLDLY RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN MEN and MEN. 😪
      GOD DIDN'T ORDER even the SPRING FESTIVAL and CHRISTMAS DAY that everyone knows, especially the toys and decorations like pares--pares, firecrackers, lanterns, Holy Communion, Christmas gifts and party---Christmas party------- AREN'T those IDOLS in PEOPLE'S MIND this? 😪
      BREAKING---PIECES of BREAD on the SABBATH DAY, WINE, and FINE LINEN is even MORE truly an IDOL. All the different TRADITIONAL FESTIVALS known in CHINA, such as "Dragon Heads---raising Day," the "Dragon Boat Festival," "Mid--Autumn Festival," the "Laba Festival," and NEW YEAR'S DAY, and RELIGIOUS WORLD HOLIDAYS such as CHRISTMAS OF LIFE, DAY OFBAPTISM, and CHRISTMAS DAY, ALL these arbitrary feasts have been organized and handed down from ancient times to the present day by many people. ☀️
      HUMANITY'S RICH IMAGINATION and CREATIVE AWARENESS CAUSED them to be PASSED to the DAY. 😪
      The MORE the DEVILS GATHER a LOCATION, and the MORE OLD and BACKWARD that PLACE is, the WORSE the FEUDAL CUSTOMS. These things bind people so tightly, that they cannot move. Many of the FESTIVALS in the RELIGION WORLD seem to SHOW great originality and seem to create a BRIDGE to God's work, but they are NOT in FACT----SEEN BANDS of SATAN that BIND them MAN to NOT KNOW GOD----ALL of thatis a cunning DECEPTION of SATAN. 🛑😪
      In fact, when a phase of God's work is over, He destroys the tools and styles of that time, leaving no traces.
      However, "faithful believers" continue to worship tangible material things; WHILE they SET ASIDE what GOD has in their MINDS, NOT STUDYING it ANYMORE, SEEMING to be FULL of LOVE to GOD BUT the REALITY is HE is LONG-TERM when PUSHED OUT of the HOUSE and PLACED SATAN on the TABLE to WORSHIP. 😪 🛑
      The IMAGES of JESUS, the CROSS, MARY, the BAPTISM of JESUS ​​and the LAST SUPPER----ALL of these are respected by the PEOPLE as the LORD of HEAVEN, while OVER--OVER AND AGAIN SHOUTING "LORD, FATHER in heaven." Isn't ALL of this a joke? 🛑
      Until now, GOD HATES many similar sayings and practices inherited by mankind, THOSE SERIOUSLY BLOCK THE WAY TO GOD and, moreover, become a great hindrance to mankind's entrance.
      in addition to the EXTENT of SATAN'S CORRUPTION of HUMANITY, PEOPLE'S WILLS are COMPLETELY FILLED with THINGS LIKE Witness Lee's LAW, Lawrence's experiences, Watchman Née's surveys and Paul's work.
      There is really no way for God to work with people because within them there is too much selfishness, laws, rules, rules and systems, and the like, these things, in addition to the last of the feudal people which superstitions, have captured and devoured thehumanity. What people think is an exciting movie that tells a "fairy tale" that is colorful, with incredible creatures riding on clouds, so creative that people are amazed, leaving them dumb and unable to speak. ACTUALLY, the WORK that GOD is DOING NOW is MAINLY to ATTACK and DELETE the SAD CHARACTERISTICS of PEOPLE and to COMPLETELY CHANGE their MENTAL OUTLINES. 🙏
      God's work has not lasted until now because of the heritage passed down by mankind through the generations; it is a work He personally initiates and completes, not necessarily succeeding the legacy of a particular great spiritual person, or inheriting anywork of a representative nature done by God in some other age People don't need to worry about any of these things. God now has a different style of speech and action, so why do people confuse themselves? If people walk today's path contained in the Current while continuing the legacy of their "ancestors," they will never reach their destination. GOD FEELS A STRONG DISGUST for this particular class of MAN'S BEHAVIOR, just as He HATES the YEARS, MONTHS and DAYS of MAN'S WORLD. 🙏
      From "The WORD Appears in the Flesh". holy book
      Fulfilled in "In the beginning He was the Word, the Word was with God, and the Word was God" (John 1:1). ... and (Ezekiel 2:9-10). ... "His garment was stained with blood. He was called the "Word of God" (Rev. 19:13).
      📩 All who have "ears to listen" are led to what the Spirit of God is saying in His lowered and built kingdom/Church engraved with His new name, His totality, the ownership of this disposition, "THE CHURCH OF ALMIGHTY GOD "💐 fulfillment from what was said He to Peter 2,000 years ago recorded in (Matthew 16:18-19). His Coming is the fulfillment of all that was prophesied in the great book of Revelation, so the last "Salvation" He brought the whole truth, the way for eternal life. So the "victorious" ones who will receive them are the wise "virgins" because as recorded in the prophecy of His return no one knows it except the one who will receive it! So "come" and come to His kingdom/church standing in the holy place in the air/RUclips! This is also a fulfillment from the book of (Isaiah 2:2/9:6) which He first fulfilled in His first incarnation. 📥
      "They say with a loud voice, "Salvation comes from the Lamb, and from our God who sits on the Throne!" (Rev. 7:10). ... and (Isaiah 2: 2 / 9:6) "On the Last Day, the mountain on which Jehovah's temple stands will stand out above all the mountains. All nations will flock there. " . "For a baby boy is born to us. The rule will be given to him; and he shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Almighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." ☀️

      Until now, GOD HATES many similar sayings and practices inherited by mankind, THOSE SERIOUSLY BLOCK THE WAY TO GOD and, moreover, become a great hindrance to mankind's entrance.
      in addition to the EXTENT of SATAN'S CORRUPTION of HUMANITY, PEOPLE'S WILLS are COMPLETELY FILLED with THINGS LIKE Witness Lee's LAW, Lawrence's experiences, Watchman Née's surveys and Paul's work.
      There is really no way for God to work with people because within them there is too much selfishness, laws, rules, rules and systems, and the like, these things, in addition to the last of the feudal people which superstitions, have captured and devoured thehumanity. What people think is an exciting movie that tells a "fairy tale" that is colorful, with incredible creatures riding on clouds, so creative that people are amazed, leaving them dumb and unable to speak. ACTUALLY, the WORK that GOD is DOING NOW is MAINLY to ATTACK and DELETE the SAD CHARACTERISTICS of PEOPLE and to COMPLETELY CHANGE their MENTAL OUTLINES. 🙏
      God's work has not lasted until now because of the heritage passed down by mankind through the generations; it is a work He personally initiates and completes, not necessarily succeeding the legacy of a particular great spiritual person, or inheriting anywork of a representative nature done by God in some other age People don't need to worry about any of these things. God now has a different style of speech and action, so why do people confuse themselves? If people walk today's path contained in the Current while continuing the legacy of their "ancestors," they will never reach their destination.

So the "victorious" ones who will receive them are the wise "virgins" because as recorded in the prophecy of His return no one knows it except the one who will receive it!

      🟫THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the Salvation of the last day that Christ brought in the second and last incarnation of the His new and holy name"
      (What God hates most of all are the superstitious practices of people, but many people still cannot let go of them, thinking that this superstitious practice is ordained by God, and even now have not completely let go of those. Even the day of worship (including the Sabbath, which the religious world observes) is hated by God; and even more God hates and rejects social relations and worldly relations between man and man. God did not even order the spring Festival and Christmas day that everyone knows, especially the toys and decorations such as pairs, fireworks, lanterns, Holy Communion, Christmas gifts and parties --Christmas party----aren't they idols in people's mindsthis? The breaking of bread on the Sabbath, Wine, and Fine Linen are even more idolatrous. All the various traditional Festival days known in China, such as "Dragon Heads--raising Day," the "Dragon Boat Festival," "Mid--Autumn Festival," the "Laba Festival," and New Year's day, and Holidays in the religious world such as Easter, day ofBaptism, and Christmas day, all of these arbitrary Feasts have been organized and passed down from ancient times to the present day by many people. The more the Satans congregate in a location, and the more obsolete and backward that place is, the worse the feudal customs become. Many of the Festivals in the religious world seem to show great originality and seem to create a bridge to God's work, but they are not--they are seen as Satan's bonds that bind people so that they cannot recognize the God--all that iscunning trick of Satan. Actually the work that God is doing today is mainly to deal with and eradicate the superstitious nature of people and completely change their mental outlook.)
      Almighty God said
      What GOD hates most of all superstitious practices of people, but many people still cannot let go of them, thinking that this superstitious practice is ordained by God, and even now have not completely let go of those. THINGS LIKE YOUTHS ARRANGE for WEDDING FESTIVALS and DOWRIES for BRIDES; MONEY GIFTS, FEASTS, and similar methods of CELEBRATION of BAD OCCASIONS; ancient INHERITED FORMULAS; ALL the NON--SIGNIFICANT SUPERSTITIONSwork PERFORMED in the NAME of the DEAD and the SEMONY of BURYING them, GOD HATES all of this MORE. 😪
      Even the DAY of WORSHIP (including the Sabbath, which the religious world observes) is HATES by GOD; and even MORE GOD HATES and REJECTS SOCIAL RELATIONSHIPS and WORLDLY RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN MEN and MEN. 😪
      GOD DIDN'T ORDER even the SPRING FESTIVAL and CHRISTMAS DAY that everyone knows, especially the toys and decorations like pares--pares, firecrackers, lanterns, Holy Communion, Christmas gifts and party---Christmas party------- AREN'T those IDOLS in PEOPLE'S MIND this? 😪
      BREAKING---PIECES of BREAD on the SABBATH DAY, WINE, and FINE LINEN is even MORE truly an IDOL. All the different TRADITIONAL FESTIVALS known in CHINA, such as "Dragon Heads---raising Day," the "Dragon Boat Festival," "Mid--Autumn Festival," the "Laba Festival," and NEW YEAR'S DAY, and RELIGIOUS WORLD HOLIDAYS such as CHRISTMAS OF LIFE, DAY OFBAPTISM, and CHRISTMAS DAY, ALL these arbitrary feasts have been organized and handed down from ancient times to the present day by many people. ☀️

When given his name, I said "oh you ran 19.61", and he very modestly corrected me to the slower time "no 19.68" (at Tokyo). Spoke for a few minutes to a very unassuming, nice, young man. Didn't get to tell him that my favorite all-time track person is Tommie Smith - perhaps the GOAT in the men's 200m as well as the 400m. All the best in Paris and beyond.

    I am Kenyan and I wish you all the best despite what you have been through. This has definitely shaped who you are today. I wish you all the best in 100m, 200m and in 4x100m relay at the Paris Olympics. It's your time to shine ever further.

    Thank you. I am Jamaican and watched your performance at the Olympics. I came to your channel just to know more about your story. For me the Olympics is more than just winning medals, it's about understanding and appreciating the stories behind the medals. Congrats to you and your family!
