Beautifully written. Well done. I am a Zealot too. There is no gray area. I am not looking to leave a legacy of a Mother & Grandmother who decided to stay silent and smooth out the lines of black & white for the sake of saying it’s okay to live inside of gray. If I don’t speak up who will? Satan whispers to me, telling me I should turn away from Christ so I can be a part of their lives. Just shush and pretend everything is okay like the rest of the family. No way! Satan is working hard on taking the souls of my offspring and future generations. I will not stay silent and accept the false promises of Satans whispers. Believe me, this commitment to Christ has cost me dearly in terms of a worldly relationships with them. I grieve for them and my heart breaks. But I stay strongest in times when I feel weak. Because this is a “take no prisoners” battle for me. Satan wants my babies. I will fight for their souls until I take my last breath.

Exactly. That's exactly what I should strive for. I do not do it perfectly but the Holy Spirit will work through me if I yield to Him. I get upset with my family who aren't believers in Christ when they say we are ok with me being "religious" I guess because there are so many religions. I always say I am not religious I believe in God and Jesus, his Son, who saved us and I follow them.

The Bible says, be zealous therefore and repent! I assume you know which book that's in and whom it's addressed to! I think we should say that to lukewarm squishy Christians. Have them look it up!

Amen sis.

Found one typos you might want to know about dear

"I teach my kids that if you truly love someone, you tell introduce them to your Savior."

I think tell was supposed to be another word.

In Christ,

Debra
