This is by far one of the best Christian/bible memes I’ve ever seen.

Praying for you. You’re so strong and courageous for sticking through it, only God knows how hard it is.

I think I've been pretty tolerant and accepting of the garbage going on in my brain and my eyes. I've never gotten mad or resented God for letting this happen, but some days I do get a little upsetti. Sometimes about actual important things like dealing with the fact that I'll never be able to drive and be fully independent like I want to be, and sometimes just about little annoyances like how today the blur around my vision is painfully obvious like an eye booger you can't get rid of no matter how many times you pick and rub and rinse and ughhhh 🙃 I'm doing all I can to help myself physically and mentally (and genuinely, things are much better, nothing is getting worse at least) but please just pray for me, that my problems don't get worse and I'm able to accept the things I can't change. Thank you

Remember that satan is not a cool guy who you can party in hell with. He hates you with a hatred not found here on earth.

He wants to drag you down to suffer the pains of hell with him because you are made in the image of God and he hates God and all that is good.

Yo I feel like the idea that the only historical women who counted are the ones who defied society and took on the traditionally male roles is… not actually that feminist. It IS important that women throughout history were warriors and strategists and politicians and businesswomen, but so many of us were “lowly” weavers and bakers and wives and mothers and I feel like dismissing THOSE roles dismisses so many of our mothers and grandmothers and great-grandmothers and the shit they did to support our civilization with so little thanks or recognition.

I still have agonizing periods where I wonder whether I actually believe or if I'm just going through the motions. But I always try to snap myself out of them by saying "Why would I bother going through the motions if I didn't believe?"

children are being exposed to so much sexualization and sexualized content nowadays that even elementary students are frightening their teachers with the stuff they're saying even if they don't understand what it means. just the amount of misogyny and porn rot that has trickled down to literal children being exposed to it constantly and thinking its just hilarious and funny is terrifying.

The egocentric is always frustrated, simply because the condition of self-perfection is self-surrender. There must be a willingness to die to the lower part of self, before there can be a birth to the nobler.

- Fulton J. Sheen
