“My secret is that I need God—that I am sick and can no longer make it alone. I need God to help me give, because I no longer seem to be capable of giving; to help me be kind, as I no longer seem capable of kindness; to help me love, as I seem beyond being able to love.”

the thing is, biblical affirmation of myself is secondary to what must be done.

i need to be focusing on the protest of war. the feeding of the hungry. the housing of the poor. the care of the marginalized.

i am not going to waste my time arguing with people over whether me being trans is a sin or not. i need to join forces with those same people in order to make sure our homeless have a safe place to spend the night—to take care of sick animals—to encourage education—etc.

i still believe that god created me trans—don’t get me wrong. i want to stand up for those who wield the bible as a weapon against my fellow trans siblings.

but i don’t entertain debate over my identity. i need to stay focused on what is important.

In the ritual of baptism, our ancestors acted out the bizarre truth of the Christian identity: We are people who stand totally exposed before evil and death and declare them powerless against love. There's nothing normal about that. -Rachel Held Evans
