Something funny you did as a kid: I once ran through my house with a tentpole and I kept sticking it in my mouth and stuff, and my mom told me to stop or else I’d cut the roof of my mouth open, but I didn’t believe her, so I kept on running around. . .sure enough. . I don’t know how many stitches it took to repair it, but let’s just say that mom’s know best.
Have you ever been bullied: Welcome to the story of my life. OF COURSE! Ever since I went to school I’ve been bullied. Let’s see some of the phrases I heard: Brace face, buck tooth, twig, ugly, stupid, Bandit (that was when I hit my head on a chair and had two black eyes for a month). But guess what, God still loved that scrawny, sabre toothed, metal faced, black eyed child that was Michael DeBacker.
Were you ever a bully? Unfortunately yes. I was mean to kids that were weaker than me (which there weren’t a whole lot of), because it made me feel better, because other kids would always pick on me. So unfortunately I have been a bully.
Talent noone knows about? No.
Inspiration to you: Christ’s love for us. The fact that His mercies are new every morning (Lamentations 3:22-24), and that He will forgive us of all our sin. That Jesus died for us, that He wants to have a relationship with us, and that He has set us free from the bondage of sin. God is the ultimate inspiration, He’s a Fortress, a Rock, a Shield, and one day we’ll live with Him forever.
