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.
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.
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.
Oh, my goodness. What a nightmare you've been enduring. I am so sorry this has happened to you! I am keeping you in my thoughts. I am glad you closed all your accounts with that bank - that was a very smart thing to do. Hopefully things get worked out soon.
We all have our ups and downs in life. Currently I am in a Valley season. In December we got a couple hundred dollars behind in rent. In January my roommate who I take care of and share a bank account with, tried to apply for a loan to make up what we were behind and to catch up. Well.... That didn't go so well. She applied for a loan online and it ended up being a scam. That put us even deeper into the financial hole. We ended up getting further and further behind on our rent among other issues. We are continuing to deal with fraudulent charges from the scam. Another $1,500 was taken out of our account this month even though we closed out the other account, the bank keeps transferring charges to our new one. When does the bleeding stop? I didn't ever realize you could steal from people what they didn't even have, but apparently these scammers did. So far we have lost around $3,000 from a bank account with a 0-dollar balance. We have had to keep breaking our payment arrangements and as a result our landlord is evicting us this month. We are having to go stay with my roommate's brother until we can get all this sorted out and find another place to go. I could cry, but it wouldn't do any good. There have been a few other issues that have come from this one as you can only imagine. Don't try to get a loan online people. It has been a nightmare for us. They go in dispute legit charges which mess up your credit with other places. Then they do money transfers with cash app under other people's names and end up scamming multiple people at the same time. The bank is aware of it, and still requiring us to pay the extra charges. We are also looking at possibly having to put down our dog who is 15 years old. She has gotten aggressive and doesn't let anyone touch her. We assume it's because she is in pain. Obviously, with everything else going on, we have not had the money to take her to the vet.
