Hopeful Signs and More to Come!

To all my readers,

I am currently writing two posts that are very personal and describe where I am now.  Those posts will hopefully be finished by the end of this month.  It has been about 7 months since I publicly came out of the closet and about a year and a half since I first started telling people about it.  It has been quite the adventure, since then both of discovering myself and learning about God's will for me.  It is really cool to see good news from many LGBT people that I have had the privilege to communicate with and become acquainted with.  It is great to see how life is starting to turn around for them.  Even with an uncertain future, I see the courage that these young, and sometimes old, pioneers are taking into the unknown wilderness and it gives me hope.  Who knows what lies ahead, what I do know that God loves each and everyone of us and that there is a bright future in store!  Keep up the good fight everyone and know that there are a multitude of people cheering you on!  Also if you are a certain point in your life where you may not believe in God.  Still know about the love all of us have for you!  Keep moving forward!

Sincerely,
Lance

P.S. I saw this video from Mormon Messages and I thought about writing an accompanying blog post about it.  I think it speaks for itself.   Through all my experiences, I have learned about the importance to have hope that God's light will continue to illuminate a path forward even if it is only for a few steps and even if those steps seem uncertain.
