Wow, I am overwhelmed at the response. I really thank you for taking the time to ‘speak’ with me! For the record, I have never told them how to live, offered my opinion or tried to convince them to change. That’s not my job and not something I’m interested in doing. I’m more in the ‘lead by example’ persuasion. I really never thought their relationship would last this long and thought it was a weird phase. I definitely never thought a baby would be brought into the mix.
I know it will be the elephant in the room at Christmas. While others are saying “congratulations!”, I don’t feel that I should do so. I feel very sorry for the unborn baby who is being brought into quite the odd situation. Of course I would always be kind to a child. But I also imagine conversations with my son in the future about why this child has two moms, etc. Not something I look forward to.
I don’t believe Jesus would condone this at all, but I don’t know what He would do or say. Love the sinner, hate the sin is pretty much the way I’ve treated it since she has come out.
Again, I have gotten a lot of good thoughts and advice here and I really appreciate it. Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas AUJenn. May you find blessings where you least expect them.
AUJenn, just in case you want it, here is the best compilation on the subject about the causes of homosexuality; since you may be having to explain things to other family members, and eventually your children, some of this info may come in handy.
