The Unveiling (Part 1)

Voice of the Parent

“So, you told the church you were gay!?

Why don’t you ever listen to what I say?

You really think he would hush hush your little secret?

Why? Why didn’t you hush hush and keep it?

Instead of letting me creating a coat of camouflage.

You decided to open your heart and self-sabotage.

Look. Honestly, this mess is all your own undoing.

Now the safety net I had for you is ruined.

This community that shunned you in your face

is the very same one you helped to cultivate.

God’s people committed capital betrayal.

And that’s ultimately denying you a seat at the table.

You should have heeded my warnings that I clearly waved…

But now this is your fate and you can’t possibly be saved.”

That was all I could hear.
