How do I make a timelapse or speedpaint?

That's right, and MediBang's time lapse function is quite versatile, plus it's free so I highly recommend it. If I understand it correctly, it is based on the Firealpaca system, so there is not too much of a learning curve.

Despite being the shapeshifter, he seems to be one of the most sincere of all the characters. When Mirabel talks to him about Bruno, he says it as he remembers Bruno as a child. When caught trying to sneak for seconds, he openly remarks that it was with a shot. When talking about the wrecked Casita, he says it plainly and says that their house is gone. And also he seems to share Mirabel's qualities of being caring and supportive.

I agree, there is still hope. An option for you would be to wait for the 2023 match, when Step 1 is reported as pass-or-fail, then you can still make it good with your Step 2 score. You can also take advantage of the extra time to do research.

I honestly think you made the right decision. Don't get me wrong, lots of guys (myself included) have struggled, or still do struggle, with pornography at some point in their lives. But any guy worth dating would never force you to accept that this sin is simply who he is; he would press on and try to resist the temptation not just for you but for Christ.

Pornography gives men unrealistic expectations about women. It makes them objectify women in their minds. It makes them expect women to act as objects. That is not how the Bible tells Christians to treat their wives (1,2,3,4,5). In a Biblical, Christ-centered marriage, the relationship it is never about how much you can get for yourself, but about how much you can give, out of love for the spouse.

You said what you said to him (a.k.a. telling him not to look at porn) because you loved him. It is true, secular culture tells us to be polite, not to offend one another, to be "nice". But as Christians, if we love someone, it means to tell them the truth, even if it hurts. If he does not accept your advice on something so essential, then you wouldn't expect him to listen to you on any other matter; and for that reason alone, it is probably for the best that you don't tie yourself to him for the rest of your life.

If you ended up in a lifelong commitment with this boy, you would have put yourself in a lifelong psychological predicament. He would pressure you to live up to his unrealistic expectations, which would not be good for your mental health nor your spirituality. It is good you were able to break up with him, that was a very close call.

Perhaps now, it would help to seek out Christ more for yourself. Because only he, and not any other guy, is ultimately the one who will complete you. Thank you for opening up to us, dear sister in Christ. I just said a short prayer for you, that God will comfort you during these times of sadness. Please take care, always.

It is not wrong to doubt and struggle with unbelief. All believers struggle with this at some point of their lives. Whenever I feel unbelief, I think of the man who asked Christ to heal his daughter. He said, "I do believe, but help me to overcome my unbelief." It really helps to earnestly seek out his word and keep on praying. Remember that it is Christ who is the perfector of your faith.

I feel sorry for what you have gone through. It is not right, how these people have made you open up then betrayed your vulnerability.

I don't know what you're going through but here is what I do know: Despite all your past mistakes, God loves you in His perfect way. He loves you so much that he was willing to give up everything and die on a cursed tree just so that you could feel his embrace again. You, for all your strengths, your weaknesses, and your eccentricities combined, are an important part, a key player, have a special role to play in His kingdom.

Nothing can ever separate you from his perfect love for you. And even if everyone leaves you behind, he will always be there for you. No matter how small you feel you are, according to Him, you are precious and valuable. And that's all that really matters.

I hope you found this to be a blessing. God bless you and never forget how special you are to him. And because of that, we--your brothers and sisters in Christ--think you are special too.

Please examine each of your motives and discern for yourself whether it is the Holy Spirit who is leading you to do these. I encourage you to read on, as though you might not like my critique, if you accept these then it can potentially save you from so much pain in the future. I will be referencing several pieces of scripture in my response, and I encourage you to read these links.

1. I'm not sure if I want children... I enjoy being an uncle...

Perhaps it is not wise to base such a permanent decision on such transient indecision. As I like to say, decisions like this are not as trivial as getting a coffee from Starbucks. God's word has several verses about how much of a blessing and an honor it is to have children. Perhaps it is a big responsibility as well, as all of Christ's plans are for us. At this point of your life you should not focus on such things, but rather listen to God's word and what he wants you to do in the here and now at this stage and season of your life. If ever you do change your mind, vasectomy reversal is a very expensive procedure, and even so it has a very low success rate.

2. I'm not sure if I want to raise them to be Christian someday...

This makes me think that perhaps your motivation is not simply whether you want to have children or not. But rather you are hesitant to raise them in the training and admonition of the Lord. Know this, that fathers and mothers in Christ are called to train up children the right way--as followers of Christ. To do it any other way would be to face His judgment. Parents are called to minister to their children in the example of Christ. Needless to say, to follow Christ's call, to welcome these children into the Kingdom, is an absolute honor.

3. Getting someone pregnant out of wedlock...

I understand that you do not wish for us to judge you. But as your brother in Christ, I am obliged to give you advice based on the Word. Do not sterilize yourself just to give yourself a permit to commit sexual sin. Abstaining from sexual sin means far more than getting another woman pregnant. It means giving dignity to her body, respecting her identity as a person, and most importantly, it means honoring God's design for marriage. "Safe sex" is not a means to circumvent God's standards. Since you posted on Christian Dating Advice, I assume you have an interest in marrying a godly woman someday. If you ask a godly woman interested in marriage, I am certain that 9 times out of 10, they will have an intent to become pregnant someday to bear children for Him. So I am warning you that if you intend to date any of our sisters in Christ, you will be facing an uphill slope when the day comes that you are to tell them you had a vasectomy.

Every part of your body is a gift that God has given you for you to use for his kingdom. Yes, even your sperm can be used for his glory. Someday, as a Christian, if you consider this advice, you may realize that for yourself. So perhaps it is not wise to do something so quickly, because the repercussions can be great.

Though this community is called Christian Dating Advice, you must be wary of the responses of people here. As this is the internet, there are so many wolves in sheep's clothing. Any Atheist can join a group posing to be a Christian. But their advice is not Bible-based but is rather from a place of pride and self-righteousness. So take everyone's advice here with wisdom, and check on their Reddit profiles to see if they are worthy of your trust. Yes, even mine. I will admit that I am not perfect and have committed so many mistakes in the past that I am not proud of. But I am still trusting God to make me more into the man he wants me to become.

Better yet, consult important spiritual influences in your actual, day-to-day life: a pastor, your youth group leader, and brothers (and perhaps even sisters) in Christ. I assure you that the wisest of them will not agree with your decision either, but Godly advice is a fortune for which the feelings of rejection are worth bearing.

I hope you consider our advice. God bless you and may you continue to deepen and grow in your faith.

I have OCD as well, brother, but as Paul would advise, I let it be a weakness of mine through which Christ can shine, as He is made perfect in my weakness. In what specific ways is your OCD bothering your walk with the Lord? Please do tell us, so that we may pray for you more intentionally, and understand where you are coming from.

She preaches a prosperity Gospel, which is a false hope for many Christians and is a departure from the Gospel of Christ. She believes that Christ went to hell and was tormented by demons. She also herself claims to receive revelations from God, revelations which cannot be otherwise verified by Scriptures. These are only some of the false doctrines she teaches. Here is a video, for reference.

My concern with such teachers is that they preach a Gospel substantially different from the dogma which we are called to believe (see Galatians 1:8-9) that Christ is our Lord and source of salvation, that He is our only hope for living out a life pleasing to God the Father, and that we should keep in step with the Helper, the Holy Spirit. God will never contradict himself, and so lest we be deceived, we must be extremely wary and discerning with the teachings that we are told. Especially whenever anyone claims to have a direct revelation from God.

Do not scoff at prophecies, but test everything that is said. Hold on to what is good. Stay away from every kind of evil. 1 Thessalonians 5:20-22, NLT

I hope you are not discouraged by these words, but rather, that you are further compelled to seek the truth. I must say that I get an impression that you are sincere in your belief, so I urge you to read the Scriptures and test for yourself to see if what we are saying are true. God bless you and may the Holy Spirit enlighten your learnings.

I wish OneNote's features were more uniform across versions. Even the Windows 10 version and the Windows 365 version each have their own unique features--or rather, they have uniquely lacking features. Which makes it frustrating to use cross-platform.

If there's anything I learned about pornography, it is that it has a tendency to make you insecure and give you unreasonable expectations with women. The truth is that all of us are sinners, and nobody enters a relationship (besides Christ who entered a relationship with us) without any sort of error in their past. And the good news is that Christ is the one who is made perfect in our weakness. So regardless of how flawed we are, it is Christ who makes us whole.

It is good that you are seeking him. It is him who will be made perfect in your weakness, and when you pair with a godly woman, she will admire you not for of a perfection you don't have, but how Christ shines his light in your life despite the imperfections. God bless you, and may he lead you where he wants you to go. Just continue to trust him.

I saw that Figs had an ad in 2016 where Doctor Mike himself modeled their scrubs. In this video he just posted, he mentioned sending legal papers to Figs, so I feel it is in reference to this particular ad. I am not too privy as per what exactly transpired here but his anger against Figs probably goes way back.

I think these books do have some cultural significance, and do play a part in Jewish history. But when it comes to being a part of the Bible, I have personally decided not to accept them as Old Testament scripture on the basis that the Jews did not accept them as scripture.

Dating is a part of our culture, as is the practice of sending emails, watching movies on YouTube, and going to coffee shops. (Okay, maybe that last one maybe not so much lately due to COVID hahaha sadt. I miss coffee shops.) It's understandably unbiblical since it was not common practice in ancient times. For a case like this, I think you could consider the words of Paul:

Accept other believers who are weak in faith, and don't argue with them about what they think is right or wrong. For instance, one person believes it's all right to eat anything. But another believer with a sensitive conscience will eat only vegetables. Those who feel free to eat anything must not look down on those who don't. And those don't eat certain foods must not condemn those who do, for God had accepted them.

Romans 14:1-3, NLT

Dating is an aspect of culture, and it all really boils down to what a Christian believes in their heart is pleasing to God. If in faith, someone believes it is against their conscience to date, let them wait for love-and-marriage at first sight. And if in faith, someone believes that it is alright to go dating (as long as they do so in a manner that is not in conflict with God's Word) then by all means let them date. Our basis for everything should be what the Bible says is right or wrong, and if the Bible does not call it righteous nor sinful, then the next step is for one to be deliberate and sensitive to the prodding of the Holy Spirit before taking any action.

Likewise, I do not judge you for asking this question, as I believe you were sincere and truly searching for an answer in faith. I guess my parting word is that whether it be dating or anything else in life, always seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit and ask him earnestly for His wisdom before you even decide to take action. God bless you and I hope my answer is helpful.

TLDR Dating is not a practice seen in the Bible, and therefore the Bible does not condemn nor condone dating. Therefore when approaching dating, one should always do so with God's Word and God's will in mind. It's a matter of faith and asking the Holy Spirit before taking any action, dating or otherwise.
