And then we spoke...

God and I have our hitches, our bumps and our uncertainties, at least I do, the two of us haven't really sat down to just discuss these things. What I need to say is that I still need to know this God that I have looked for my whole life. What is great is I do, but I want more. 

This journey in faith and discovery has been so slow and tested because of my desire to know God along the way. 

• I waited to come out to my parents until it was more about family than it was about me
• I have not had a relationship until there could be honesty and an understanding about myself and a reconciliation of my faith with this part of who I am
• I have pushed the edges of who I am to see where God is in it all, only to find God was resting in the places I started as well as finished
• The most important responses to my coming out are not the supportive ones, but the ones that ring with care and sincerity, whether they are challenging, upsetting or positive

In all of this I find a quiet strength that God has been bringing me here, through a lot of different tunnels, but nonetheless, here.
