God promises to bless those who bless him and curse those who curse him (Genesis 12:3). Melchizedek, the High Priest of God, meets Abraham as he comes from war, at the valley of Kings (Genesis 14:18). Melchizedek receives enormous favor from God; he is promised and uninterrupted service as God’s High Priest (Hebrews, 7:1).

Resiliency through Challenge: Moving Beyond Divorce to Construct a New Life Factors That Contribute To a Sense of Resilience and Growth through a Divorce Process More than half of first-time marriages are anticipated to end in divorce (Rohde-Brown & Rudestam, 2011, p109). Divorce, therefore, is a stressor that cannot be ignored as it affects the physical, emotional, social, financial, and psychological aspects of the parties involved. To overcome trauma and stress-related characteristics of divorce, resilience, and growth are critical elements. Both of these characteristics are not easily applied but can be achieved over time. Resilience comes from a mindset change, support system, culture, and social conditioning. Support systems, such as divorce therapy sessions, significantly increase resilience. A culture that does not victimize divorced individuals equally contributes to resilience. A change in the mindset where a victim mindset is changed to a victor mindset also contributes to resilience. Divorce is predominantly an emotional stressor. As such, dealing with the emotions attributed to divorce is imperative. Feelings of anger, resentment, guilt, and shame are examples of divorce-related emotions. Forgiveness is essential in…

origin of life The theme brought in chapter one is the origin of life. Life is seen as a tricky thing that consists of two different skills that are the ability to replicate and the ability to create order. The ability to reproduce is made possible by the existence of a recipe which is the information needed to create a new body. Scientists found some chromosomes, and it is believed that they contain some code-script where the entire pattern of the individual’s future development and its functioning are held. Life, to a rough approximation, consists of the chemistry of three atoms, hydrogen, carbon and oxygen, which between them make up ninety-eight per cent of all atoms in living beings. Recipes are stored in DNA, and these recipes are translated into proteins, and these proteins enable DNA to replicate. RNA being a chemical substance links both DNA and protein. RNA is used mainly in the translation of the message from The alphabet of DN A to the alphabet of proteins. Therefore the ancestor of life are the bacteria that existed before…

Should the United States pass a minimum wage that assures all workers earn a wage above the poverty level? Defend your position using economic principles. Response 1: NO. The united states should not pass the minimum wage bill because it will lead to unemployment. The perfect labor market equates to the same forces of demand and supply in the equilibrium. Increasing the minimum wage requires firms to increase employee wages, and in the long run, more workers will be encouraged to supply their labor. Therefore, if there is more labor supply in the perfect labor market, then there will be low demand for labor. This translates to less demand for employees since the supply would be more than the demand hence, resulting in the lack of employment. Secondly, an increase in the minimum wage will result in a lack of competitiveness between firms. If a firm does not afford to pay its workers the minimum wage as stipulated, then it may go out of business as the higher wages translate to high costs to the firm. This will eventually…
