What is The Message Given to Our Children?


Our children see war on the streets, and from the sky, caused by gunfire, bombs and missiles.
They hear of young people like themselves, being abused by sex and violence. There are too many
people dying, too much blood has been shed, and too many lives have been destroyed.
The lives of young people are the price paid.

 The Price We Must Pay For Our Father's Sins is a story of a family who paid the price for violence caused by adults. It is sad when young people lose their freedom to enjoy life, and death becomes the ultimate price they have no choice to escape.

An Attractive Box with Nothing Inside is Disappointing! Can it Harm You?


An attractive box with nothing inside is disappointing! Can it harm you? Assuming that the box underneath such beautiful gift wrapping has to contain a valuable gift inside, you will want to hold it. Touch the bow, and it will be a very costly mistake, the biggest you will ever make.

Let's use an analogy based on this beautiful gift box: Underneath the beautiful wrapping lies things that are harmful to your health and others as well. The pretty bow holds evil inside.
 It is a very attractive box one would surely be happy to receive and immediately open. This box is empty inside. But you will never know that if you touched that bow. You will never know that you were deceived and played. You fell for looks and that was the first mistake you made. The second mistake you made were involving yourself emotionally. You just had to hold the box and touch the bow because you fell for looks. Some things are best to observe from distance, and keep moving. And some gifts are best not to touch.

How Some People Are Tricked into A Gift box Relationship 
There are people with the gift box attractiveness, and there are those who involve themselves with them emotionally. The gift wrapped individual's soul is like the empty box. The mind of such a person is likened to that of the pretty paper and the bow. They will destroy anyone who gets involved with them emotionally and eventually physically. There is nothing of value they contribute to a relationship. Instead, they drain the other person who is too emotionally involved with them to terminate the relationship, despite being used and abused emotional, or physically and oftentimes both.

Description of a Gift Wrapped Person:
Egotistical
Disrespectful to others
Self-centered
Self-worshiping
Uncaring
Untrustworthy
Does not value life
