Double tap if you’ve ever been rejected.
Beloved — We’re so sorry for all those times you’ve been kicked out, pushed aside, and made to feel unwanted.
The next time you face the sting of rejection, the Beloved Arise community is here to remind you that…
️YOU ARE GOD’S CHOSEN!!! ️
God chose you before the foundation of the world!! (see Ephesians 1:4-6)
So no matter who passes you over, know that God choses you today, tomorrow, and every day you have breath. ❤️
“Therefore, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, embody compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience…and above all, love!” (See Colossians 3:12-15)
Save this for when you need a reminder that you are chosen! ️
ID: A billboard in New York City says “Dear Queer One - Though others may reject you, I never will.
You are my chosen. ❤️ God”

Since@inafried started #Letters4TransKids in defiance of this recent wave of anti-trans and LGBTQ+ legislation, we knew we HAD to write one, too! Read the letter from our ED, Brian Wenke, and join in to write your own letter using the hashtag #Letters4TransKids:
“Dear Rockstar,
Adults seem to have an easy time forgetting what it’s like to be young. I am dumbfounded daily by the vitriol adults are purposely casting at LGBTQ+ youth, particularly our beloved trans community.
Despite what may appear to be a rising tide of negative sentiment directed at you and your peers, I can’t help but see it as the dying breath of an outdated form of conditioning. We’ve been here before. It won’t last, but it won’t go down without a fight.
If any of the individuals trying to limit your freedoms met you, they would understand how important you are. You elevate the world’s understanding of what it means to be human - a beautiful sentient being with an experience so complex modern language cannot describe it. Your value transcends the hateful rhetoric of a loud minority. I promise you, there are more people in this world who will fight for your existence than those who seek to diminish it.
I will fight for you. The It Gets Better Project will fight for you. Countless millions will fight for you without question. Open yourself up to the love coming your way. Be you, unapologetically, and show by example of your life the joy that can come from it. You are loved, and you are a f***ing rockstar!
Stay Proud, Brian”
