A Revelatory Harmony

I an opposer of the death penalty.
I am a supporter of homosexual marriage.
I am the proud bearer of four (soon to be five) tattoos.
I am a Christian.

When I was younger, I never believed that I would be the first three things, because I was the fourth.
Now, all four seem in harmony to me.

I'm just now coming to terms with all this.

My place is only to love everyone, not to judge those different from me.
My place is only to protect the innocent, not to punish the wicked.
My place is only to heal the broken, not to administer whatever version of violent justice the government is seeing fit to dole out at any given time.
My place is only to be the person God made me to be, and to live in freedom within the convictions He has given me.

I am a human, and I will err.
I choose to err on the side of love.
And I choose to lean into the heart that I believe God gave me: creatively, theologically, physically, verbally, boldly.
At least I'll try.
That's all for tonight.
Sleep tight.
