I went back to church for the second time in a row last Sunday after being away for quite some time. I was nervous, but felt comfort with Marcy holding hands with me. I was dressed in women's slacks, blouse, shoes, gold stud earrings, and a nice gold necklace, and ladies watch (I now own no male clothes, and was dressed for work after the service).
After the service, one of my older female friends that I'm out to told another female friend of mine, an older lady (funny....I have so many 'older' female friends......coincidence?). Anyway, she looked back at me, and suddenly looked very sad, and I worried about her, being visibly upset. Marcy, and my other friend said she would get over it, just as other friends have done (outside of work)
After the service, Marcy introduced me to several different people she had become acquainted with in my longish absence, as her partner, Beverly. I was fairly stunned. We have both come such a long way, so very very fast.
Each morning before we separate for the day, we embrace in bed and both say a prayer for the day. She refers to me to God as Beverly, she, her, and her angel. I am truly, truly blessed.
