I just started coming out of lesbian tomorrow on Valentine's Day is my first date with a woman and I'm starting to get very very scared because I was born into a deeply religious Christian home and my core belief value is gays and lesbians don't make it into heaven and that God won't bless me and he's going to take away his protection over me and if I wil willingly and blatantly walk into sexual sin the consequences will be much higher and my mom's not alive she walk with me and reassure me because she was raised in the same kind of home I was but toward the end of her life she got a softened and didn't think that everything that was sending Christian Church was necessarily true and she was willing to walk back with me to this journey and then she died unexpectedly and I'm thinking about packing it all back in and stuffing it back in the closet again because my fear isn't going to allow me to go through this date and I just know as much as I if I like this woman I'm going to eventually hurt her because I know I never will be able to get over the fear that living as a lesbian isn't going to send me straight to the eternal lake of fire

That’s sounds heavy. I can hear how much this is weighing on you. Fear can be loud, but so can love. Your journey is yours to walk, and it’s okay to take it slow. You deserve happiness and peace, no matter what.
