I've come out to my family, but not to my church family. I moved from one state to another and in both churches they do not know. <BR/><BR/>My previous church wouldn't understand and they would completely... well... I can't say excomunicate me, but you get my meaning. <BR/><BR/>My present church wouldn't like it, I don't think, but they would still be loving and caring, the way Christ was.<BR/><BR/>I would really enjoy your comment on my thoughts( IE Blog) and look forward to hearing from you. <BR/><BR/>One thing that Always helps me no matter what... think back to what Jesus said. <BR/><BR/>"I will never leave you, I will never forsake you, I will be with you even until the end."<BR/><BR/>-GBGayBaptisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12072733716622324248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3559347780881464430.post-33688168328226025372008-04-12T00:44:00.000-05:002008-04-12T00:44:00.000-05:00I went back and read anonymous' comments.

It is really too bad that some people will have tirades about GLBT issues but forget that Jesus himself said, "Judge not lest ye be judged".<BR/><BR/>Know I am someone else who is watching your struggles with sympathy and praying for you.

Certain issues just get a storm going in the comments. <BR/><BR/>I really support you in saying that anonymous should get a name or a blog- so true.<BR/><BR/>That was learned early on by - if you don't have "real estate" or a name in the blog world, don't spew in the comments.<BR/><BR/>Peace to you!Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07181529277715646835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3559347780881464430.post-3022056942056524172008-04-11T14:40:00.000-05:002008-04-11T14:40:00.000-05:00CBL, this happens in lots of blogs where these hot...CBL, this happens in lots of blogs where these hot-button topics of Christianity are discussed. I will try not to talk "through" your blog; I can understand that would be tiring. I also know (personally) how difficult it is to be addressed by strangers condemning you. (And calling you "honey." How dare s/he). <BR/><BR/>I hope the support that this community gives you is helpful. You are in the prayers of many, many people... many, many of whom want to affirm the goodness of the way God made you.<BR/><BR/>Pax, C.Ceciliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10812791378130572065noreply@blogger.com
