Please remember to respect yourself.
stop waiting on men to validate you. you’re pretty. you’re smart. you’re interesting. you’re worth time & effort. you deserve to be loved. you need to know these things and truly believe them. don’t wait on some man to come along and tell you.
Just show me that I’m important and that’s enough
“I was very worried. But your comfort brought joy to my heart.”

My heart aches for the group I used to be apart of. To see so many deceived by sin, handed over to the desires of their flesh as explained in Romans 1:24-27
I want you to know that God can forgive your sins, can give you new life. Can change your desires, turn your whole life around!
I used to be attracted to women, I used to fornicate with women, I used to be in love with women.
God has given me new life through His Son; Jesus Christ.
Jesus came to die for our sins, to be an atonement for our sins.
There’s no forgiveness of sins without atonement of sins!
The best way I know how to explain this transaction is like so;
You and I fall short to the glory of God (Roland 3:23) we have sinned against God. And He is good, which means He is also just. When someone is full of justice, they must punish sin.
Yes, that means you and I have earned wages for our sins. And just like the judge in a court of law gives wages of a range, God gives wages for our sins, which is death.
You and I cannot do anything to change God’s mind on our own merit
“ for by works of the law no human being will be justified in His sight, since through the law comes comes knowledge of sin“ (Romans 3:20)
Our only hope of redemption, new life, forgiveness, ids only Jesus. (who is God incarnate)
John 3:3 says you cannot enter into the kingdom of Heaven unless you are born again.
Jesus died for our sins,
And to cement our eternity, He defeated death in His resurrection
What you need to do is repent of all your sins (repentance means to turn away from, to forsake, to leave that lifestyle)
And trust in Jesus as your Savior.

If anyone ever wants to further discuss this, please reach out to me. I will be praying for the lgbt community through this month, that you would come to have new life, salvation, Hope in a lost and dying world. Peace through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Sista Midwife is a black birth advocacy group that catalogues practicing midwives, doulas, and wellness practitioners of color around the US. There were PAGES of results for GA and AL.

And feel free to search this blog as well, with all kinds of informational and resource-based posts for people wanting to know their options and rights as parents.
Some of these resources are pro-life, others are not. But all of them have a passion for helping women and their children find the care and support that they need. If this makes you angry, feel free to scroll on and make your own post about it. 👍🏼
