I tried to pray away my gender dysphoria so I could live as a cis woman, but God didn't take it away and sometimes I felt like he was telling me it was part of my path in life.

Thats a really beautiful outlook, I grew up in a religious houselhold so my awareness of the Christian perspective on transgender people is "God made you how you were born"...most people read that you are what you are on a physical level and thats that, but...like you said, those emotions, drives, and needs, arent a thing you made up, they were as you were made. So what else can they be but how "God made you"?

If you're [biologically] born transgender, you can't stop being that. The way to receive happiness is being yourself and you can't make everybody happy either. It's not your fault you're born that way. But you can decide if you wants to play a role and ignore that you're transgender.

The only way to stop being transgender is being born cisgender in the first place. There are a few cases where cisgender people (Yes, cis people. I'm not talking about non-binaries.) have questioning their gender and believed they were transgender for a reason, but later found out they aren't transgender. In a few cases where people do regret transitions and wants to detransition, they were cisgender in the first place. These who regrets aren't always transgender people who isn't happy with the result or feeling a pressure at detransition.
