Well, Brave Lion set me straight today with tough love and I am glad for it.
(‘straight’, lol. I am still gay… with an inclination toward bad jokes, ha ha ha)
I was able to pray and humble myself properly, watched a good sermon and got my thinking headed in the right direction, and I am going to cut out all of the toxic negativity that I have allowed other people to put into my thought-life (which eventually seeps into every area of life).
Progress is called what it is because you have to work for it. It doesn’t happen without you making up your mind to make the effort and give it your all.
So to everything that has been telling me, “That’s not right. You’re not good enough.” and oh my gosh, this one– “Apologize some more, for everything you do!” No more of that.
So interesting how after my life was made so much better I still managed to go so far backward. Why, I imagined myself forever working toward my family’s acceptance and begging their forgiveness just for being me.
That is NOT how it is going to go down.
Yeah, I’m a sinner. But so is everyone else. And I won’t let anyone bring me down–God wants me to go UP! (and not in flames, lol)
That is my declaration for today… That this man is getting up and will not be kept down!
-Eli, with love. Love yourself! 🙂
