"Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh." - ‭‭Genesis‬ ‭2:24‬‬

I wanted to address something I did in the past. I want to start by saying that I know some people will probably be pretty mad at me for saying what I'm about to say, but please note that I hold no prejudice against anyone because of their gender/race/sexualities/etc.

So, let's say you've been following me on Wattpad for a long time. You'd probably remember that I had in my bio that I was a lesbian and Christian. I'm here to address that today. I thought for the longest time that that was completely okay until I realized I was entirely wrong.

I thought this was okay because, for the longest time, I don't believe I was following God, just a twisted version of what the world says He is. I claimed I was trying to see God through "my own eyes," but I wasn't even following Him.

In a way, for way too long, I became a progressive "Christian," and I didn't know nor care what the Bible actually said. However, I was changed by God and stopped following this false way because of a woman's testimony that I read about one day.

I was just scrolling day through social media. I kept seeing this story popping up on my "for you" page about this lady's testimony about how she was lukewarm about God for so many years until she began to have dreams where she saw the terrors of Hell. Still, she also had these dreams where she met Jesus in Heaven. The way she described what she saw and the dreams she had were just so inspiring to me!

Her story made me feel very guilty about how I was living my life. As I kept getting further and further into the story, I felt the urge to become devoted to God for who He actually is. I began to become really serious about praying, reading the Bible, and striving to apply it to my life, even if it meant it'll upset other people.

I know I'm not perfect, and I know that I messed up badly, but I've repented to God for who I was in the past, and because I cannot be perfect, I'll follow a God who's perfect and stay away from the "God" that the world tried to invent.
