I’ve lived long enough to know what I want out of life. My aim is to live & love in imitation of Jesus. Though I daily fail, I’m resolute in the pursuit. It is not that I do not care what you think or what that looks like to you. It’s that I care incomparably more what He thinks.
The moment I can figure out who Jesus doesn’t love & did not give His life for & would’ve refused to be seen with, I’ll do my best to start shunning them immediately. There is no one on earth Jesus should‘ve shunned more than me. Instead, He’s loved me shamelessly for 6 decades.
Do I still call sin sin? Robustly so. In fact, I align with Paul on this whole list of grievous sins. “Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions,->
envy, drunkenness , orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.” Gal.5
Full stop.

Man, I’m about to sound old school. I’m unnerved at how relentlessly Jesus is bringing purifying fires to His church. The purpose is glory but the process is going to get gory. This era will be marked by secrets manifesting. What we don’t fish up & clean up is going to float up.
Fellow leaders, let me speak specifically to you because Jesus is going for us. None of us will get away with duplicity. If you have secret sin in your life, don’t mess around thinking one day you’ll deal with it. Deal with it now. Repent & seek the power of Jesus to clean it up.
As we analyze our lives for duplicity, it would be very unwise for us to think only in terms of sexual sins. Are we stealing from our companies, our churches or non profits if we’re in ministry, the government, etc? Are we mishandling funds? Are we mishandling our authority?

On a walk through the woods with the dogs before making my way to the airport. Reciting memory work & presently midway thru Gal 5. (Behind on my goal but the only way to do it is to KEEP doing it.) When you recite Scripture, you can feel the strength return to your weary bones.
I’ve said so many times the Son of God saved my soul & the Word of God saved my mind. Anyway, I so love & always take pause with Gal 5:6. “In Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith working through love.” Man, those last 5 words.
We are called by God to live by faith. That’s such a familiar concept to us. But here we are also called by God to LOVE by faith. Loving by faith means we keep doing it, by the power of Christ, even when we can’t tell it is doing a whit of good. Even when we are not loved back.

Luke 19. Zacchaeus: that wee little man who climbed the sycamore tree "trying to see who Jesus was but he was not able because of the crowd."We've drawn so many spectators, parading all our discord. Can't imagine those watching from the branches can see who Jesus is in our crowd.
In Luke 19, no one in the crowd was worth Zacchaeus climbing a tree to see but Jesus. Pretty sure the disciples were with Him. Not 1 person yelled, "Hey, that dude right there, that's Peter!" Everybody's face faded to gray in the scene except Christ's. Only one face worth seeing.
If you're watching this mess, trying to see who Jesus is, don't confuse Him with us. He's the one standing at the base of that tree, below the branch where you're perched. He's calling you to come down from where you're spectating. He wants to stay at your house. You'll like Him.

Thread. Long: I'm feeling a profound sadness. A deep sadness. One that is inhabiting my very core. Why? I've lived long enough to know what life was like before women won their necessary & long overdue rights. Trust me when I say that April 17, 1982 was a day filled with
boundless joy for women all over #Canada. Our rights were enshrined into our Charter of Rights & Freedoms on that day. It was a very long road from being legally considered “persons” to finally being treated – at least on paper – as equals under the law.

Now I'm seeing our very
hard won rights under attack. Particularly our right to a safe, medical abortion. What's stunning about the anti abortion laws being passed in states like #Alabama is the total lack of understanding about why an abortion is performed. The medical reasons include problems with the

I'm beginning to wonder if #Canadians are a bit on the masochistic side. Canada is doing very well. Employment is better than its been in 40 years. Our debt to GDP is the best in the G7. Child poverty's been reduced by 20%. Yet given the polls, it looks like we're seriously
considering changing horses in the middle of a stream. The horse we're riding now is strong & healthy. The one we are thinking about riding has a tapeworm. It needs much more food & care than we are able to provide. There's also a good chance that it's lame. But we don't know
that for sure because the lower half of its legs are under water & not visible. How can we not be happy, grateful, for the horse we have? Is it simply a matter of, to paraphrase Voltaire, Perfection being the Enemy of Best? Or are we masochistic? Wanting to feel pain so when a

“Trans is gay conversion therapy”

“If you want to be ‘the other sex,’ you must want to be heterosexual. 🤷‍♀️”

😧

By the time kids develop enough to know their sexuality, they’ve certainly lived long enough to know being gay is WAY more acceptable than being trans in 2019.
First off, many trans-aware kids, including myself, knew we were trans before we even knew ANYTHING about sex. Not a single thing. Trans has absolutely NOTHING to do with sexuality. They’re different areas of the brain, even!

Gay marriage is a thing!
A lot of stigma around gay people has lifted. I could bite my tongue for a few minutes if we were living before the 21st century. It wasn’t very long ago gays were harshly targeted like trans folks today.

But, I thought we were talking about kids? They wouldn’t know those times.

Okay, it's taken me long enough, but I've started figuring out who the characters would be in D&D classes.

I mean, Glimmer is a Warlock who burns out all her spell slots Misty Stepping into trouble; Noelle Stevenson said as much before the series started. So that's a gimme.
The D&D character she used for Glimmer's personality was a Tiefling but Glimmer is obviously an Aasimar, given that she's half-celestial. Scourge, because of how frequently she burns herself out to save others.
Catra is a Tabaxi (obviously), and Monk. I thought about Rogue (Assassin), but her jumping, cat-falling, unarmored defense, etc. fits a Monk better. She's more about the many small blows than the one deadly one. Also, Monks don't require a house rule for a Tabaxi claws.
