" We know that death and life are in the power of the tongue, and yet we use our words to put people who are different from us, or who don’t believe the way we believe, in a kind of bondage. I’ve seen this happen, especially with the LGBTQIA+ community. Some families who have children or family members who are LGBTQIA+ have this notion that these beautiful humans are not okay and are constantly telling them that they are living in sin or going to hell, or that something is wrong with them. That is just not right. I’ve met so many children and adults whose family have turned their backs on them for simply existing. People who have been rejected because of who they are, for being the way that God created them. Honey, just because someone is different from you does not make them wrong. It just simply makes them different. We are all different, and we should all be able to live our lives as we feel we were created to live it, without judgment, without hate being spewed at us, and without worry about whether a family member—someone who claims to love us—will turn on us. Turning your back on anyone is not an action rooted in love. "
