Sapphic Mormon Problems

When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. (King James Version)

It used to be commonplace that when a child came out of the queer closet, their parents would kick them out of the house. Fortunately this is less common than it was in the past, but statistics of homeless youth shows it is something that still happens far too often. For those worried about coming out of the closet and wondering all those scary “what if” questions, this verse is comforting. The Lord won’t abandon us even if our parents do.

I like some of the non-KJV translations of this verse

New International Version - Though my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will receive me.

New Living Translation - Even if my father and mother abandon me, the LORD will hold me close.

English Standard Version - For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the LORD will take me in.

New King James Version - When my father and my mother forsake me, Then the LORD will take care of me.

Amplified Bible - Although my father and my mother have abandoned me, Yet the LORD will take me up [adopt me as His child].

If it could compromise your health? DON’T.

tomorrow is ramadan. your eating disorder will not magically disappear in ramadan.

allah will not hate you if you relapse in ramadan. be it that you faint or you binge, if you need to break your fast because of your eating disorder THEN YOU BREAK YOUR FAST.

You are not supposed to fast when you are sick. YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO FAST WHEN YOU ARE SICK. IT IS HARAM TO FAST IF YOU ARE SICK BECAUSE IT BRINGS HARM TO YOUR BODY. If you start feeling horribly sick and you know, you haven’t had sufficient suhoor or iftar for a few days or anything of the sort, it is okay to break your fast and even go to the hospital if you need to.

habaybi that have eating disorders, PLEASE take care of yourself during ramadan. It is a month of cleansing and forgiveness, so forgive yourself if you relapse. You can always redo your fast after ramadan.
