Thank you for leading me to reflect on this Shemaiah. I certainly don't enjoy the feelings that come with being an outsider, I don't seek them out. I prefer to be my true self, child of God, walking my walk, praying that I am an example of who God created me to be. I seek others like me to help support me, strengthening who I am, so that I can fulfill God's purpose for me on this earth. I don't hide from the thorns, impossible really, and when I do encounter them, I feel comfortable being my true self among them.

Perhaps all of us who belong to the Lord’s family are outsiders on this earth.
