I'm not worried about other people's souls. To me we all come from God and return to God. Each person has their own path. I'm here to love them not condemn them.

As for me? The clock is ticking. I don't have that much time left and shouldn't be wasting it on worrying.

It's good to see you back. Hopefully old friends will find you soon.

In response to "On Time Management"

I played cribbage with a friend yesterday. She was glum and needed the distraction. She perked up when I had a 24 point crib and beat her. Playing was important, not winning. Yes, I thought I had other things to do; but, apparently this was more important.

There isn't much regarding transgender or transexuality in the Bible. Gender is a cultural concept and transgender individuals exist in many places in the world. It's also not an issue in many places. As for transexuality, Baha'is consider it a personal medical issue. I understand that many folks do not accept that but accepting people as they are (or choose to be) is far less divisive than trying to control everyone or shame them.

In response to "update on my crazy life"

Thanks everyone for the comments and support and understanding. It has been very stressful and exhausting. It has impacted me emotionally and physically. Spiritually, it has been a growing experience. I am glad I have a God that is bigger than all my problems. I don't know that I could get through it all without him. This definitely makes you rethink everything you take for granted in life and everything you hold near and dear. You find out things about the people you are close to both good and bad. It's been a very trying and tough time in my life.

Experiencing intimacy with God.

Take UP Your Cross

Prompt
Intimacy with God: What Does It Mean to Experience It?

Answer:
It is never being completely alone. It is having constant companionship. It is getting to know him. It is spending lots of time and communicating with him. It is enjoying reading the Bible. It is glorious to praise him.

Jesus is my Roll Model

PROMPT September 13th

Who do you see as role model of yours, either a professional or 'everyday' person, and why should everyone else know about this person?

This one is kind of a tough one for me. There are lots of people I would consider in my life to be examples of what I don't want to be.

As far as current living human beings, I guess I could say my aunt, Aunt Clemma, is a good roll model for me. She is elderly and has taken good care of herself and her family. She has worked hard and has a lot of nice things. She is loyal to her husband, friends, and family. I admire her and would love to be like her when I am her age.

Overall, I try to imitate Jesus. He should be known as the only way to Salvation. He is love. He has a sacrificial love for every person ever born upon this earth. He gave his life so that we can have a personal relationship with him and God the Father. He is everything good. He is always present so that I am never completely alone. He heals, comforts, provides, and guides. He is glorious. It is awesome to live in his presence. It is a privilege and an honor to have him live on through me. I am his and he is mine for eternity.😃
