A Life Transformed

Pride Family

Are you a parent or grandparent with dreams that your child will find love and happiness in life? Are you finding out that child or grandchild is part of the LGBTQ+ community and trying to come to terms with it as it counters what your faith tells you? Have you prayed because you love this child and are still trusting that God is with them, as he has been all their life- even though it may mean you have to reconsider everything you once believed?

I want to love more like Jesus.

How many times have you said that to yourself? How many times have you prayed to live more like Jesus, to have a heart like Jesus, and to treat others like Jesus did. Have you asked God to give you a heart that fights against injustice and a passion for change?

I fall short of that all the time and I am beginning to realize that while they are nice sentiments, I don’t know the first thing about changing in a way that is meaningful to others. I want to be that person that walks across the street to help the one others ignore rather than to cross the street to avoid people I have been trained to fear. I want to sit among the “sinners” and hear their stories and stand with the brokenhearted, the marginalized, and the mistreated.

I want to love like Jesus.
