AJ2884 on Nostr: You imply that you believe, but do you really believe or do you simply want to, or ...
You imply that you believe, but do you really believe or do you simply want to, or feel pressured or expected to? For many years I felt guilty about my relationship with Jesus, or lack thereof, until I eventually fully realized, acknowledged, and accepted that I simply wasn't a believer. And that doesn't mean that I don't respect what true believers have, or in a way admire it, but like with the thought of pretending to be gay for the sake of seemingly having lots more sex, pretending to be something that I'm not isn't going to make me happier and then acknowledging who I am.
