GOD. GODDESS. ANGER. CONFUSION.
Your Version of God Simply Does Not Serve Me
From Anger to Vastness: A Three Part Series
I’m tired of defending myself and my gender. I’m tired of proving my equality, my worthiness, simply because I am female. I’m tired of this all-male club.
Dang people! It is time to drop this damn fairytale and start telling the truth. I swear, if another person says it doesn’t matter that we refer to God as “God the Father,” everyone knows what that means — I am gonna barf! That is how tired I am.

Let’s talk about diversity, equality, and inclusion.
It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences. ~ Audre Lorde
They say that God created us in his image. Well, that’s just dandy. Then who the heck created me? I’m not male. And I sure didn’t come from Adam’s rib. I am a descendant of Eve; we all are. Adam planted his seed, and Eve grew the children.
For a long time, this fairytale made me feel as if I was somehow unworthy, less than. I used to think I was the only soul that God rejected.
It took me decades to see how this story had hollowed me out from the inside. And when I finally spoke my truth — that I believed I was the one soul God did not love — the ground shifted beneath me.
That confession began an unexpected unraveling…
And I didn’t yet know the path would carry me deeper before it led me home.
(This is Part One of a three-part journey. Part Two will follow soon.)
