Deep Thoughts from a Drunk Person in Rants

So I have had a few glasses of cheap red wine tonight (from Aldi - at $2.94 a bottle, they’re amazing!) Mostly because my regular bank account said, “NO, you can’t get pinot grigio tonight, so you’ll have to drink the red wine you bought the other day.”
Anyway....
The last few years as a massage therapist have been great -ups and downs, people who follow me on social media and people who don’t.
On freakin’ social media, I hold my hand(poker reference) close to my chest so nobody (or only a few) see my cards.
In other words, I’m limiting my own personal narrative
I didn’t create this term. It was from a podcast dude (Ryan Fletcher, if you’re interested - warning - he may say stuff you don’t agree with - get over it, move on, whatever....)
I have been working on presenting myself as the happy-go-lucky-massage-therapist (NOT A MASSEUSE!!!! iF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS, I WILL ANSWER THEM LATER)
I need to present myself in a way where people either say they like the way I think or they just don’t like they way I think.
And in some ways, I may not have presented my thoughts, so I will do my best, after a few glasses of red wine (does red wine produce a more potent “smooth” than a white wine??? asking for a friend)
Sooo…here goes.
I believe every person has a right to their own belief.
this is key - because if you don’t believe this, you are subjugating people to something they don’t believe in, and therefore, will not support.
I believe in God, that Jesus was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, was tortured, maimed, and killed (blood redemption) for me stealing a pen from my employer.
Sin is sin. Regardless of whether it was a pen stolen from the employer or other sins that so many Christians rebuke.
I believe that I am a most accursed sinner in NEED of that blood redemption. I will never tell you that i have it all together. I am not perfect. Please. Please…PLEASE! - Do not follow my example. Do not compare me. I am a hypocrite (meaning that I say I do one thing, yet actually do another). I accept this. I’m F’ed up.
Yet, I still love and try my best to follow Jesus.
He even said - take up MY cross (Dude…you seriously think I can carry that heavy cross???? or Cross bar - whatever it was for the time to execute prisoners?) I have absolutely no RIGHT to that kind of redemption, except that He said that “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”
Trust me, I’m not here to preach. (wouldn’t be effective) But I do love God and trust that He has promised me eternal life (or what some would call the “Get out of Hell free” card).
I forget what my point was - and I certainly don’t have much of an audience here, but hope it was somewhat coherent and maybe made sense, regardless of my addled state of mind/inebriation.
Whatever. I need/want another glass of wine. And I think I drank it all while writing this.......*
