Last Sunday, Easter and Transgender Day of Visibility fell on the same day. Some people about lost their minds because this happened. They thought it to be sacrilege because trans people were celebrating who they were on a holy day.
Easter was the day that Jesus was resurrected from the dead. Trans people were resurrected from a life of misery to becoming their authentic selves. Jesus died for EVERYBODY! Trans people are part of God's wonderful design.
Easter comes on various dates. March 31st is the actual day of Trans Day Of Visibility. The day was created in 2009. It just happened to fall on Easter this year. Instead of folks being riled up, they need to be thankful for a merciful Jesus who paid for our sins so we wouldn't.
As a Christian who happens to be trans, I'm thankful for God's mercy. I'm thankful that He has embraced me as his child. His grace and mercy is available to all.
