welcome to my world. Its the Bible Belt. I'm so low on the totem pole that my neighbors will yell out, or least talk loudly, about my confidential info while I'm in my parents' yard. They'll also call me a faggot.

When I was semi-vegetable, they said "we've made a man out of him," because I apparently "knew my place." Now that I've been the object of Christ's grace, I apparently "don't know my place" and "can never become a man," but I'm "not a boy anymore."

Ugh. Nobody kept my confidential information confidential. Nobody bothered to give me standard, appropriate care. Now, the neighbors and others in my neighborhood keep talking about "oh, he's goin to prison!" and "he better get ready for federal prison!"

Ridiculous. Clearly, at some point, I'm going to have to move.
 
my Friend ppl are going to ridicule and mock and talk about you behind your back because saddly that is the world we live in. Let me tell you about my situation, because of my brain damage and honestly because of who i am i am a 23 year old stuck in a kids body with a kids mind and i have many medical problems and can hardly remember to do the simplest things. My family sees me as a kid who cant do anything they dont see me doing anything in life and they talk about me behind my back as they love to gossip.

But when I was saved God showed me that while I cannot amount to much in this world I can become someone strong and great in his kingdom. He showed me that my family will not agree with my faith and will not understand. Ppl will always ridicule you and look down on you because it makes themselves feel better,They do not want to face their own demons so they point out others. i have a mental illness i have many medical and health issues so I understand how hard it can be, but I think that even though ppl are mocking you and being mean and even though it brings u pain i think they are the one really in pain and need prayer and love deeply
 
COOL :salute, :amen

Romans 8:30-32
King James Version (KJV)
30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.
31 What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
 
That would be a good post for the Mentally ill thread that Angel started.
