Anonymous asked: The way you place your words in a sentence to build a thought is simply amazing. You have truly been blessed; your responses to anonymous tumblr questions are written more elegantly than the words in some authors' books.
Thank you love I really appreciate that.

Anonymous asked: step down silly girl you aint no prophet, no savior! You are a servant! Spare us all and get off your high horse pleaseeeeeeeeeee
Spare us all… well you can certainly spare yourself by getting off my tumblr. If my stance and my opinions bother you so much it seems rather silly for you to seek them out, no?
poettc asked: Good Morning, i would to ask for advice on how one can go about being more theatrical when reciting a poem. this something i'm constantly told i need to do but having trouble grasping as to how to go about doing it. Thank You
UMMMM I don’t believe in being theatrical. I believe in being honest. Sorry, but the performance should serve the piece but overwhelm it.
Anonymous asked: "I believe God’s plan for the world is co-creation with man and redemption." I'm not sure if you know how wonderful that line is, and how much it spoke to me spiritually. You are really blessed in your ability to manifest the grace of God and then verbalize it. What a wonderful way to look at the world!
yeah that’s not me. That’s a thought that came from one of the pastors at my church, Elm City Vineyard. But it is a radical one. One that frees us up to look at God as more than just an angry parent who tells us what not to do but as a kind of Da Vinci who perfects the art of his apprentices.
Anonymous asked: Wow you are truly misguided! God doesnt ask for us to sin in order to spread His message! Recognize when the devil is guiding you instead of God. Just because something good may come out of you doing something wrong that doesnt mean you did what was pleasing to God.

No one is ready until they are holding that life in their arms. But God has equipped you with love for this child, knowledge for this child, a special and unique view to share with this child. If you didn’t doubt yourself you wouldn’t be taking it seriously enough. But just know that its your job to care for the child and its God’s job to care for you so you are not alone my dear. Blessed is the fruit of your womb!
Anonymous asked: As intelligent as you are you have a really screwed up way of thinking. Clearing people sin. That doesnt mean you should be open to sinning consciously! If anything you should protect your self from sin and ask God to steer you away from being open towards things like homosexuality or things that He hasnt made kosher for us. If could says no this is not right why would you say i might be open to it anyway!
I went drinking in a gay bar in Jordan and when two Muslim men approached me and asked me to explain the concept of the Trinity and the resurrection to them. That conversation would never have happened if I refused to drink, refused to go to the bar, refused to go to the Middle East because people are Muslim. Judge less. See more. Set this conversation aside whatever your belief on homosexuality and have more of this internal conversation. When I see a same sex couple, do I feel compassion, love, and grace or do I feel revulsion, judgement and superiority.
Anonymous asked: I suppose I agree with you to an extent. I agree Christians do lie, Christians fornicate, harbor anger, and so on but that’s where repentance comes in. and after repentance you try your best to not repeat that same sin. So why would a Christian woman start a relationship with another woman, repent daily and stay in that same relationship? If you could do this with every sin than why commit your life to Christ to begin with?
I think our sexuality like so many things is subject to the rule and reign of the Holy Spirit. I believe that lives both in the pages of the Bible but also in our lives. As long as we give our sexuality over to God to rule and reign we are in the clear. For some people that might look like heterosexual love. For others that might look like homosexual love. I believe God’s plan for the world is co-creation with man and redemption. Maybe homosexuality was not God’s plan for man in the garden, but God allows us the room to create and what God does is redeem what we have made. He kicked us out of the garden… that doesn’t mean that God will destroy the city man made afterward to house him and his family. What it means is when God extends his hand into the city, he makes man’s creation perfect. That’s why in the end times we don’t return to Eden… we are residents of the city of ZION. In this way man creates history with God and God perfect this. I believe this is possible with relationships. I believe its possible with love. If two people are committed, monogamous, self-sacrificing, and walking in God’s love towards each other, why should that categorically be a sin….
I hook up with boys too. I kiss them. I let them touch me. I touch them. I date them but I’m not married… I repent when I hook up with someone out of a desire to use them or a desire to feel powerful or wanted. But I don’t repent for being intimate with someone I care for and who God placed in my life. According to your logic, that would make me not a Christian… Instead of focusing on other people’s sins how bout we focus on God’s love for them. All sin comes out of mistrust which comes out of fear. And we both know a perfect love casts out all fear.
