O
poor
spirit,
you are blessed.
In your rise and fall
remember that the one who sits
in the heavens laughs, and his laughter is the laughter
of a tender father watching
his children play; but
only if
that's who
you
are.

  1. You asked about how you could love your friend. Gospel Coalition is blocking my response. Here's an article that might help: http://rachelheldevans.com/blog/ask-a-transgender-christian-response

    1. Thanks for the link. Ideas are important, but they don't go very far at all without the stories. If we don't listen, we can't love, and all our righteousness is just the clatter of so many cymbals. (symbols... oooh... I feel a poem coming on... )
