I recently started pursuing Christianity. The whole religion seemed so comforting, the God and Jesus we believe in is so kind, and I believe in him and his kingdom for me. I wish that others would know about his good news and seriously believe it, but I can't just force others. I pray for them with all my heart.
I'm twenty-six years old, old enough to be independent. I love my parents a lot. They raised me well, though not in a Christian household.
But my mom... She's really insistent about homosexuals. She always reminds me that their love is the same as others. It's always that they're so pitiful and receive undeserving hatred.
I also pity them. But not in the same sense as my mother. Homosexuals are stated as people who disobey God's word, and I honestly believe that. It's one of the facts and beliefs of original Christianity. I don't think people should hate them because their love is "weird". It's just a sin, morally evil.
I pray for them. I have friends who are from the LGBTQ community, and I pray for them everyday.
I told my mom about this, and she just blew up at me. I was very shocked. It was probably the first time she ever became violent at me. She threw her purse at my face, saying that homosexuals are innocent, I was a devil, and many more hurtful insults.
I ended up just leaving the country, because I was visiting my mother, and I didn't want to see her for some time. I hate spoiling our relationship, but I feel like she's doesn't respect my opinion and religion.

Fantastical Love
I wish I could write a poem about fantastical love. A poem about a love so pure, so naive, so new. One full of whimsy and wonder, something so childlike yet so...
Everyone has different opinion . We have to learn listening and come to conclusion
God is love. Everyone deserves mercy. Everyone has chance to enter the kingdom of God!
ReplyWhen you start heading down that path and start to get opposition then you see that you have an enemy that doesn't want people to know the truth. You're right we are supposed to love them. God's their judge not us. your mother blowing up well you'll have that when you dump too much truth on somebody. But yes God is love. Christ said love one another as I have loved you. We're all sinners who need God's grace every day if we're honest. None of us are perfect.
ReplyI am happy that you found Lord. Guidance, Blessings and Protection to you.
Life with God does not mean it will be easier.. It will be harder, but we must have faith and trust with Him. God is about love and Truth..and many will not like us for the truth. It can make others angry at us and break relationship. It is mentally spiritually and physically hard but we must remember that some people in the world did not like jesus.. So they will not like us either. This world is not our home.
I'm sorry your mother did not respect you for sharing your thoughts.
Continue to pray for your mother, for strength, for understanding......and for the world.
May the Lord continue to be with you. Blessings to you from meπ
ReplyPray for your Mom that the Lord will change her heart as well. Don't give up praying for her. Soon youll see how God will amazingly move her heart. I am so happy that You were once lost but now found. Enjoy the peace, love and security in your relationship with Jesus. Bless you<
