I am sorry that we have not been the best example of Christs love. I am sorry we have pretended to be more righteous than Jesus. ( I mean, see how he dealt with Zacheus and the harlots in a very gentle way.) I am so sorry. Sending you hugs and lots of love!

There is eloquence, there is Boldness and then there is what is right, and none of this should imply the other. You can always say a bunch of wrong things or half-truths with a lot of Boldness. The moment you say you are Christian, then you acknowledge that you don't make the rules - Christ does. Our work is then to find out what rules He has set for us humans and to follow them. In the class of beginners, freedom is doing what you want, in the class of seniors, freedom is the ability to do what is right.

As a Christian I know we need to practice love in our day to day encounters for whoever that’s human and I wouldn’t hate you for who you but remind you that that’s not what God intended for you. You’d rather stay single than be in love with same gender. I thank God you are bold and I urge you to be bold too in doing all that God expects of you. It’s something you need to pray about and one day you will overcome

This lady had a very troubled abusive childhood. She has struggled to be who she is today. Its my prayer that the spirit of the Lord continues to minister to her ,grant her the grace of healing from a traumatic childhood experiences. Probably this will heal her whole being and conform to what is normal lifestyle. Otherwise for now, its hard and almost impossible to love a man. God's grace is abundant gal. She requires more love and understanding her more. Blessings beautiful intelligent gal

Very powerful speech. I think those who judge you are not being honest. They just envy your SUCCESS!. Secondly, harmony leads to happiness. Humanity is battling some fundamental questions. I won't cheer or castigate you but will only leave this advice here. When you reach a crossroad and are not sure of the next move, the best advice is to go back where you have come from because it is the only familiar way you know.

Congratulations!!!! A story is told about the Buddha and how after enlightenment he met a man who being struck by his radiance and sense of peace asked him: "My friend, what are you? Are you a god?" "No", the Buddha replied. "Are you a magician, a wizard?" Again the Buddha answered, "No". Perplexed, the man asked again "So what exactly are you?", the Buddha replied: "I'm awake". To finally be awake to who you truly are is a magical thing. Unfortunately so many of us use all of our time and energy focusing on others that we fail to awake to our own true self resulting in second hand empty lives that are trapped in norms that we have borrowed instead of norms cultivated from our own awakeness. GO Makena GO. More light to you.

But in this subject, I go to the book of Romans chapter one and I get my answers clearly. Also Bible says, seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you. Seek the lord first and he will lead your way.
