Someone or a few people wrote the words of Jesus, that is true. If it was the son of God birthed by a virgin is my quibble....but the words are beautiful and this young person gets it.

It is about love. It is about acceptance. It is abou helping everyone.

Love this OP so much, thank you for bringing it here.
