For the director of music. Of David. A psalm.1 You have searched me, Lord, 7 Where can I go from your Spirit? 13 For you created my inmost being; 19 If only you, God, would slay the wicked! |
I hope this verse can be encouraging to others who doubt the intentionality of God. I have to constantly refer back to this verse as a reminder. But it really is the last two verses that I try and focus on daily. Asking God to keep me walking straight on His path. I’m coming to realize that for me, transitioning would be sinful and offensive (as verse 24 says) to who God made me to be. Listening to other peoples’ transition stories, they all admit that their feelings don’t go away. They may be a little easier to deal with now that they feel more aligned in body and soul, but they are nonetheless still there. That shows me that my overwhelming feelings of being biologically incorrect cannot be changed by man. It shows me that I need to trust God to be with me in my doubts and struggles. Again, we don’t know what God’s plans are for our lives, but we need to live knowing that God does not make mistakes and He allows us to struggle and be tempted in order to learn and grow in Him. He promises to make us new and to make us whole!
