…is the pain I feel for the individual whom I just met with…for 4 hours! 2 1/2 of that in seeking ways to turn aside his accusations towards me that were disguised as “concerns”…
…and even deeper is the pain I feel because he is so completely blind to his own arrogance, his own literal ignorance that was actually used as a trump card! (“I don’t need research, I have the Bible”…omg just wow, that cuts sooo deep)
It ran the gamut…from an expressed concern that was inflated to the level of a prior divorce! And yet, there has been not one time we have ever even had dinner or lunch or breakfast together! Not one!
There was a lot of stuff, and it hurt.
BUT: I am good, Constance…inside. Not fractured and broken as I feared I may be. I have seen the enemy now, and it isn’t this man or others like him…it is ignorance, fear, and habitual devotion to tradition.
Love,
Charissa Grace…under the Mercy and Okay!

I am happy to hear that. I can feel you getting stronger every day! You are so right- the enemy IS ignorance, fear, and habitual devotion to tradition.
Your heart.
Strong.
In tact.
Pure.
Those who don’t see that, don’t See you.
Period.
