The devil works through some people but God works

3/6 Edited to

... Read moreIn my personal journey, I have often reflected on the powerful contrast between negative and positive spiritual influences in our lives. The phrase "The devil works through some people but God works through me" resonates deeply as it highlights the struggle between harmful actions and divine purpose. Through my own experiences, I've noticed that acknowledging the presence of negative forces helps to strengthen my faith and reliance on God's guidance. Living with this mindset encourages me to focus on gratitude and prayer, which provide clarity and peace even in turbulent times. By understanding that challenges or setbacks might stem from opposing forces, I find reassurance that God’s work in my life is purposeful and protective. This perspective transforms difficulties into opportunities for growth and spiritual development, reminding me that divine support is always present. Moreover, surrounding myself with a faith-based community, exemplified by hashtags like #godfirst🙏 and #chosenone, reinforces my commitment to this belief. Sharing and hearing similar testimonies from others fosters a sense of belonging and reinforces the conviction that God’s presence can overshadow negativity. Faith, in this way, becomes a personal anchor and a source of empowerment. It reminds me that choosing to embrace God's work enables us to overcome obstacles and act with compassion and strength. Believing that God works through me motivates me to lead by example and to contribute positively to the lives of those around me, standing as a testament to the power of divine love and guidance in everyday life.

The first slide introduces the topic: 'Yelling at Kids Works — But at a Cost,' promising the honest truth about its short-term and long-term effects, based on science, with a 'SAVE THIS POST!' call to action.
The second slide explains 'WHY IT WORKS,' stating that yelling triggers a child's threat response, leading to compliance. This immediate result is a powerful reward, teaching the brain 'yelling = compliance,' making it hard to stop.
The third slide details 'THE REAL COSTS' of yelling in the long run: it erodes relationships, raises the threshold for compliance, keeps children's nervous systems on alert, and models yelling as a tool.
Yelling works — but here’s what it costs 🗣️
Can I say the thing nobody wants to say out loud? Yelling works. That’s why we do it. The kids stop. They comply. And our brain registers: that worked. So the next time we’re maxed out and nothing else is landing, our brain goes right back there. But here’s what it’s costing over time. And i
