An ancient Egyptian wig, made from human hair, dating to the New Kingdom, 18th Dynasty (1550-1292 BC)...

The wig was discovered in the tomb of an Egyptian woman named Merit in Luxor, who shared the tomb with her husband Kha. It features a duplex style with tightly set curls on top and several hundred thin braids hanging below.

Beeswax and resin were used to secure the hairstyle and preserve the wig.

The wig was found in a dedicated acacia wood box, which helped maintain its excellent condition for over 3,000 years.

Matthew 5:3-13 NIV
[3] “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. [4] Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. [5] Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. [6] Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. [7] Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. [8] Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. [9] Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. [10] Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. [11] “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. [12] Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you. [13] “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those

He (Adam) gave his wife a new name.
Genesis 3:20

"We have to have the woman to work with us in ministry. To go out and demonstrate righteousness and Holiness in the earth realm."

We do not disobey God because we love him deeply. We disobey God because we have an inborn hostility toward him.

The Bible says that we are by nature enemies of God. We have a natural antipathy in our fall is towards Gods reign over us. So with respect to enmity, God is the injured or offended party. It is not that God has manifested and many towards us. We are the ones who have violated him. God has never broken a promise. He has never violated a covenant. He has never sworn a vow to us that he failed to pay. He has never treated a human being unjustly. He has never violated me as a creature. He has never violated you. He has kept his side of the relationship perfectly. But we have violated him. He is the injured party, not we.

Multitudes of people are intensely angry with God because deep down in their bones they sense that somehow God has not given them a fair deal. “How could God allow this to happen to me?” Is the complaint. The unspoken statement here is, “if God were really good, if God were really just, he would recognize my merit and treat me accordingly. He would give me more than I have. God is not fair.”
That is the complaint deeply lodged in our bones

The Sword of The Spirit is the Word of God

It’s the one offensive tool to the armor of God.
The word of God is gonna give me the ability to have discernment, the ability to have promises that I can claim, truths that I can hold on to, direction for my life, correction and rebuke.

I need the word of God

Bahji, Anees, et al. “Pharmacotherapies for Cannabis Use Disorder: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis.” International Journal of Drug Policy, vol. 97, no. 49(2), Nov. 2021, p. 103295, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.drugpo.2021.103295.

This article reviews different medications that researchers have tested to help people with cannabis addiction. It goes over several drugs, like nabilone and gabapentin, that might ease withdrawal or reduce cravings. Even though none of the medication completely solve the problem, the study shows that science is getting closer to finding helpful options. I decided to use this article because it connects the medical and psychological sides of treatment. It helped me understand that medication can support recovery, but that counseling and behavioral therapy are still very important parts of the process.

Petrilli, Kat, et al. “Association of Cannabis Potency with Mental Ill Health and Addiction: A Systematic Review.” The Lancet Psychiatry, vol. 9, no. 9, Sept. 2022, pp. 736–750, https://doi.org/10.1016/s2215-0366(22)00161-4.

This study looked at how the strength of cannabis affects mental health and the chances of becoming addicted, The authors found that the higher the THC level, the more likely people were to develop problems like anxiety, psychosis, or dependence. They also noticed that people using stronger cannabis tended to start using daily and had more withdrawal symptoms when they tried to stop. I chose this article because it shows how much cannabis has changed over time. It’s not the same mild drug people remember from decades ago. This helps me see that potency really matter when studying addiction and that stronger forms can have a serious impact on both the mind and behavior.

Gowin, Joshua L, et al. “Brain Function Outcomes of Recent and Lifetime Cannabis Use.” JAMA Network Open, vol. 8, no. 1, 2 Jan. 2025, jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2829657, https://doi.org/10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2024.57069.

This article focuses on how cannabis use changes brain function over time. The researchers used brain scans to compare people who had used cannabis heavily for years with those who hadn’t. They found that heavy users had less activity in parts of the brain that control focus, memory, and decision-making. Even when they weren’t high. I included this article because it helps me understand the brain on a biological level. It’s one thing to say that ma*****na affects motivation and attention, but seeing research that visually shows the changes in brain scans really helps it makes sense.

Batalla, A, et al. “The Neuropsychopharmacology of Cannabis: A Review of Human Imaging Studies.” Pharmacology & Therapeutics, vol. 195, no. 92, 1 Mar. 2019, pp. 132–161, www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0163725818301906, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pharmthera.2018.10.006.

This article reviews brain imaging studies to explain how cannabis affects different parts of the brain. It shows that THC changes the activity in areas responsible for emotions, memory, and reward. It also talks about how CBD seems to have the opposite effect and might balance out some of THC’s negative impacts, even though this source is a few years older, it’s helpful for understanding the science behind how ma*****na interacts with the brain. I included is because it gives a strong foundation for my project and helps me see how cannabis can cause short- and long-term changes that play a role in addiction.

Ghafouri, Mohammad, et al. “Treatments for Cannabis Use Disorder across the Lifespan: A Systematic Review.” Brain Sciences, vol. 14, no. 3, 1 Mar. 2024, p. 227, www.mdpi.com/2076-3425/14/3/227, https://doi.org/10.3390/brainsci14030227.

This review looks a different type of treatment for cannabis addiction and how they work for people of different ages. It explains that therapy approaches like cognitive0behavioral therapy (CBT) and motivational enhancement therapy (MET) are most effective overall, especially when used with support groups or family involvement. Medications show mixed results depending on the persons age and how much they use. I chose this article because it reminds me that addiction treatment isn’t one-size-fits-all. It helped me see that younger and older users might need different kinds of support when it comes to recovery.

I spent years of my life doing everything in my own strength. Making it happen! Doing whatever it takes! Chest out "I got this". && I saw the depths of darkness and pain that it brought me to.

To this day I still know that I can MAKE IT ALL HAPPEN SOMEHOW, but it brings me to terrified tears just thinking about trying to be God and the consequences of that. It might take me 5 or 6 years just to recover from everything I'd do to try to fix everything around me in my own understanding, using my own power and might. I also know exactly how good it is to let God do what He does best, better than I ever could .. even as hard as I can go to make it all work out. At the risk of my health, my marriage, my mental state, my future, my life in Christ...Id risk it all just to try to make things happen that I don't need to. God never told me to do all that.
So my trust is in Him. Because I've seen Him do it so many times for me that I don't have to rely on myself to solve all the problems in my life.

I am a walking miracle and I know it.
I KNOW God will do his mightiest work in my life.
