Hey everyone, my name is Abdelmajed. I don’t usually talk much about myself, but today, I want to share a little piece of my story.
I was born and raised in Gaza, a place that has always been my home 🏡. I grew up surrounded by my family, my friends, and the streets that I knew like the back of my hand. Life wasn’t always easy, but we had love, laughter, and dreams. I used to think that no matter what happened, home would always be here. But life has a way of changing things in ways we never expect.
Over the past months, everything I once knew has disappeared. The streets that were once filled with children playing are now silent. The houses that held so many memories are now just rubble. And the people I loved—some of them are gone forever. 💔

Does anyone know how the get rid of the demonic little padlock on my twitter account? It's like it only allows followers to see my post and I have none of those for obvious reasons 🥲
Another one of my OCs (not the same universe as Raiden's tho)
I got a question or two, what’s a Yokai? Japanese demons or spirits I assume? And why does he have an issue with foxes, did he get duped by one and holds a grudge? And most importantly, what kind of food does he enjoy most?
Alrightie first question let's gooooo
Okay so yokai in this universe is used to refer to generally non-human creatures, this term kinda varies in regions but it's general regardless, examples are vampires, kitsune, griffins, etc., to yokai in actual Asian lore and anthro animals e.g. dog, cat, mouse and some other species. Yokai are classified either based on biological similarities or how much magical energy they naturally possess, for example kitsune may fall under A or B-tier being quite powerful, while anthros and some goblin species are F-tier, having little to no magic aside from their respective abilities and instincts. Dragons, although not normally classified as yokai are seen as S-tier.
Demons, however, may be either a term for yokai with infamous intentions or literally evil spirits. They first appeared during the rise of the first nogitsune (name TBD for now). A good example can be nekomata and bakeneko, told to have part of a nogitsune's magic, explaining their multiple or big-ahh tails. Demons may either spawn to naturally wreak havoc on mankind or as a result of being possessed/corrupted by an A-tier demon. Their tiers also range from worldwide threats to some vermin you can just splash water on.
Raiden doesn't really have a proper reason for hating on kitsune. Kitsune are much frowned upon during his time and seen more as mischievous and deceitful than friendly by all species, thus he heard a lot of tales about them and was like "Okie, they confirmed evil so it's on sight if I see one". But who knows? Maybe he'll be proven wrong, maybe they are a-holes idk my kitsune main is a wip at the moment so we'll just wait and see
I think he'd like bao buns, but if you guys have other suggestions for what you think his favourite food is, let me know!
God’s light and salvation make fear powerless against you. — Psalm 27:1
The next time you have an insecure thought, I pray you pause and remember this verse. I pray you take a moment to really meditate on what it means: Look at yourself with gratitude and awe, knowing you are the result of God’s creativity and expert handiwork. You are a reflection of His wisdom, intentionally set apart through your design for His purpose.
God delights in you, and how He created you. Genesis 1:31 says that when God looked at all He had made, He declared it “very good.” That relates to you too! There’s no part of your design that’s a mistake. No matter what society tries to impose on you, remember that God’s thoughts and ways are so much higher than ours. The wisdom of the world is nothing compared to the infinite wisdom of God. Let that truth sink in and shape how you see yourself.💕

Random lol, but: Could this be another reason God looks past appearances and prioritises our hearts? Because He knows His works are perfect anyway—so why not focus on what truly matters? (1 Samuel 16:7)

Words to note if you want to:
The word “fearfully” comes from the Hebrew root yare, which means to revere, respect, or stand in awe. You are a reflection of God’s awe-inspiring, to be revered and respected handiwork and power.
The word “wonderfully” comes from the Hebrew root pala, which means to be distinct, set apart, or uniquely marvelous. You are intentionally designed, set apart, and uniquely crafted with precision, care, and infinite wisdom.
God bless you!💗

As the time drew near for him to ascend to heaven, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem. He sent messengers ahead to a Samaritan village to prepare for his arrival. But the people of the village did not welcome Jesus because he was on his way to Jerusalem. When James and John saw this, they said to Jesus, "Lord, should we call down fire from heaven to burn them up?"But Jesus turned and rebuked them. So they went on to another village. Luke 9:51-56 (NLT)

James and John meant well. Their reaction reflects a very human response that some Christians have when others reject Jesus or fail to live according to His will. Their anger, offence and judgement came from their passion, love and zeal for Jesus. But, it was misguided. It didn’t reflect the heart and Spirit of Jesus. Instead of grace and patience, they condemned and sought vengeance. Jesus’ rebuke shows that that’s not how He operates. His Spirit is one of love, grace and redemption, and we as Christians are called to reflect that- even to ourselves!
Sometimes we’re like James and John to ourselves as well. When we sin or fall short, it’s easy to condemn ourselves. But Jesus’ response to the Samaritan village’s rejection shows His heart: He didn’t lash out, shame or curse them. Instead, He continued His mission of grace. He still died for them because He loved them.
Jesus doesn’t condemn- why should we? He loves you more in this moment than any one of your loved ones could love you in their entire lifetime. Remember that! 💗💫
