I Am a Work in Progress

I realize this more each day as God forces me to confront things. Okay, so it doesn't quite work like that for me, but it is true I am confronted with my limitations and forced to decide what I am willing to work on and what I live with. This post is about something I live with...and I sleep well too.
I was invited to a jewerly party a few weeks ago. It was lovely to spend time with friends. I even planned on buying something.
Until.
Something happened.
That,
changed everything!
The company this home based jewelry party loves Jesus. They are a "Christian based Company."

What the hell does that really mean?

Suddenly, I had no interest in buying anything. Jesus came up several times in the sales pitch and then again in the catalog. I couldn't do it. I sat there for 3 hours and bought nothing. I am sure all parties involved are good people (I am really trying here.), but how do I really know? Are they the bigots who condemn my gay friends because they are gay? Are they pro-life and do they give large quantities of money to The Christian Coalition? These are all reasons I didn't choose to buy anything.
I went home empty handed, but with integrity. I am thankful I am grounded in what my beliefs are. I suppose they are as well.
