@lyssazim To respect that as a 36 yo w/o a mother or child, I’m not going to church on Mother’s Day. I’m going to try not to go in any public space if I can help it. 🤷🏼♀️
@edgykristina I’ve heard different theories. One is that God somehow made the gene pool different? Another is that Adam & Eve aren’t the only people he created.
@TheTiredThistle Anyone that has their feelings hurt because you didn’t send a thank you note to them when YOU are going through one of your darkest times, has their own interest in mind, not yours. It’s ok to protect yourself from them & even cut ties.
@TheTiredThistle Most commented that they understood and the thought that I should write the notes was ridiculous. There was one elderly lady that said “It’s ok honey, you can do it when you feel better.”
I never did them and have no regrets.
@KyleJamesHoward Please be praying. A couple of years ago I got stood up on a first date. The NEXT DAY he texted me that he had car trouble. I told him I was no longer interested and he proceeded to then keep messaging me asking why. I eventually blocked him but….
My value does not come from how others view me. It comes from God, who loves me.

@edstetzer@sendnetwork Growing up, I was part of a white SBC church that partnered with a black church to plant another black church. Now I am part of a SBC church that is truly & intentionally diverse that reflects the community. It’s possible & I can’t go back to the mono-skin toned church as before
@AmysMargin I learned how to draw and paint (w/ much practice!) in college. I absolutely love to paint, but I’ve always wanted to be able to sing though. Maybe in the next life…
@HollyStallcup I lost my mom 6 years ago and have not began a family of my own, despite the desire to. Mother’s Day just sings. It was a relief last year when I didn’t have to explain myself to anyone why I wasn’t at church on Mother’s Day. (Because of quarantine/shutdown)
