Homosexuality

Homosexuality is an issue which too many struggle with. I recently received a link to a testimony of a gay who found Jesus, and it is incredibly inspiring, to Christian brethren out there who have loved ones who are homosexual.


Excerpts from the testimony:

(one of) The mother's earnest prayer for her son
(7 years)

"I will stand in the gap for Christopher.
I will stand in the gap until the victory is won,
Until Christopher's heart changes.
I will stand in the gap every day,
And there, i will fervently pray.

And Lord, just one favor- Don't let me waver
If things get quite rough, which they may.
I will never give up on that son..."

Luke 2:4 says that its God's kindness that leads us to repentance. Amen!

"So i had a decision to make: Either abandon God and His word to live as a homosexual, or abandon the homosexual lifestyle to live as a follower of Jesus Christ... the choice was obvious."

'The ultimate issue is not whether i am attracted to male, or attracted to female. The ultimate issue is that i yearn after God in total surrender and complete obedience."

Jer 29:11 (NIV) "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
