Wow, it's been awhile like a few months I have written a blog post and time has gone in a flash. I've been in recovery from illness and in a few weeks I'll be posting my story during my the last few months. Life has been pretty interesting for me and I would rather not have to experience it again. It all started because I got the flu at the end of March. Life through me a whole lot of lemon's and I slowly made myself some lemonade. I'm slowly back to my old life a little scarred up but I'm here and functional.
I got a whole lot to say right now. Right now, I'm dealing with a situation with a friend of mine and I don't know how I'm going to handle it. I wrote a blog entry along time ago about abortion. LINK HERE Yes, I had one and this friend of mine has a strong opinion about abortion. Let's just say he doesn't think highly of women who have had abortions. He doesn't know my story, my decision of why I had one and do I even tell them? I have forgiven myself and I know in God's eyes I have been forgiven because Jesus died for all our sins. Yours and mine. We are imperfect and we all make major mistakes we have guilt over.
I know how he feels about the subject and what makes matters worse is he baptized me on June 5th. Wrap that around your head. Would he have baptized me knowing I had an abortion? I'm part of his small group within the church. Will he accept me as a friend if he knew? I just know who I am but the question is; will our friendship change once I disclose my abortion to him?
I know it's his hang up. I know my life journey. I know I have lived with my decision as hard as it may have been. Whatever I end up doing I'm going to do what's best for me and what's best for my family.
Today my family had a picnic with his family and when he was spouting off his ignorance I left it at that; gave him a pass because he's a man who is imperfect with ignorance of a subject he has no clue on other than a judgemental opinion.
Take care, Peace!!
