I am in awe of your strength and your testimony. Your road has not been an easy one. <br /><br />Hang in there.

As a recent convert and married to a non member, I have been judged, ridiculed, mocked etc. for some reason this is allowed and accepted. It's just sad how people react this way out of fear and what they don't understand.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20620337.post-27334214069811794972011-11-05T12:30:21.492-07:002011-11-05T12:30:21.492-07:00As long as you are not trying to convert people by...As long as you are not trying to convert people by force, you can worship God, the devil, or the manhole cover at Fifth and Main, and I'd have no problem with that. (Unless you were blocking traffic.)<br />As for hatred and bigotry... Unfortunately, both words are overused by whiny partisan race-baiters. <br />Bigotry is usually a personal thing, and I have no problem with it until it leads a person to commit a crime against another person. Most bigoted people are so miserable that their personalities are their own punishment.<br />Same with hatred.<br />It is almost impossible to live happily with those emotions stirring in your heart. They punish themselves daily, so I see no reason to trouble myself about it until they try to act against me or my loved ones.waynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00188072246322501426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20620337.post-20862922630606919502011-11-04T14:10:21.122-07:002011-11-04T14:10:21.122-07:00So true!

Doesn't it amaze you how people will go out of their way to say something mean and hurtful about the church when they don't even know anything about it? It's crazy! Good blog. ;)G.
