I’m still trying so hard to leave this god behind and believe in the One I’ve known all along, even if I don’t always recognize or believe it’s Him. Thank you for this ❤️‍🩹

“I knew His voice immediately, even though I’d never heard it.” That part. 😭 I’ve worshiped the ‘god who hated me’ too. It’s been a lifetime of untangling from that grasp. Reading this was cathartic. Thank you for writing it.

the depths of beauty in your letters have been a balsam to me and the suffocating dogmas and expectations I have also lived with. The rivers of God’s love that soothe us are immense, He won’t let us go. Thank you so much for being the voice that so many of us have been needing.

This is unlike anything I've read in my own journey of desolation and disorientation and renovation. It named something for me. This letter is like a fragrant oil in the hands of God to massage out the years of tension built up...
