Coming Out to Myself - 14 Years Later

[@fojo1184]

Thanks for sharing Tom! Love seeing God's faithfulness play out in your life all these years :)

The loss of a beloved pet is so painful. I feel your pain as I have been there with one of my dogs.

Aw, I'm sorry to hear that. It's so rough. I didn't say much about it in this video, but I was also a pretty lonely kid with few friends. Certainly none that knew about my sexuality at the time. So losing Annie amidst all that loneliness and isolation was deeply wounding. Took me a while to come out of that brutality.

The "these stupid democrats!" entry made me chuckle.

Thanx for sharing man I came out as GAY God made me this year!! I came from the Conservitive Mennonite!!

[@nate8932]

as a "person faith" i acrually ended up leaving the church lol. There was too much of a disparity between what i believed and reality. Scripture doesn't dictate reality, it explains it and when its explanations are wrong it loses its authority to dictate how a person should live or react to reality

Keep looking to the Lord Jesus 🙏

Hey.

I am puzzled by those who say that they didn't realize their homosexuality until well into adulthood. Did they, for years or decades, fantasize about the opposite sex whenever they practiced onanism?

[@thomasmarkz]

Can't speak for them certainly, but I'll say this about my first 19 years...it's more than tempting to shove aside something you don't want to see.
