I am not a saint. I have never claimed to be. I have never tried to be. I am just a girl who grew up and turned into a woman one day.
Who am I? I am a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister, a misfit, a friend and many other things. There have been times in my life when I have been very, very bad. And then of course there have been times in my life when I have been very, very good. I'm in the very, very good times right now. Don't know how long that will last. Hopefully from here on out.
I am practicing and learning to be a pastor. I found my faith again recently and like all new to the faith Christians, I practice and I am really super enthused about spreading the Good News. But the thing is, I don't believe that God has separated us into loved and unloved. I believe that God loves us all... Equally. Yes, all of us. I believe that no one can condemn anyone else to "hell" or to any other horrible place. That is solely the job of my Father. So chill.... He'll take care of it all. So yes, I am a Jesus Freak but not one of those weirdo ones that you have be afraid of.
I have found family in my friends. That is not to say that I don't have a great family. I do. But my family is more than just those who I am blood related to. The Twinkles and the Husb are my blanket of love and security. Please don't fuck with it. My Mama and the Kid Sister are just as important and protected. Don't fuck with that either. I know, I know cursing doesn't make me very pastoresque.
Well, I'm no saint.

ReplyDeleteThis is so exciting!! I'm no saint either, despite what happened to me recently. Having said that, perhaps it's the rough edges in life that make us saints. It's living on both sides of the boundaries. It's having debates with the committees in our heads. It's not always having the answers, or knowing what questions to ask. If we had all figured out, what fun would life be? Keep on bloggin'!!
