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."

Much Food For Thought

Something i saw on a friend's blog (:

“I can summarise in four sentences what I want to say to my younger friends serving the LORD: 1.Never take down a fence until you know why it was put up; 2.If you get too far ahead of the army, your soldiers may mistake you for the enemy; 3.Don’t complain about the bottom rungs of the ladder; they helped to get you higher; 4.If you want to enjoy the rainbow, be prepared to endure the storm.” by Warren Wiersbe :)

Dying For You; Thoughts

I would die for you, because i know without a shadow of a doubt that Jesus has saved me and that i go to be with Him eternally when i die,

but i am not sure if you are sure of this.

Based simply on this, i would.

"...Love covers a multitude of sins."

How true this is! And how many are the people who have heard of it.

But how hard it is to apply it.

"With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wounds.... "

-Abraham Lincoln

Be sure you put your feet in the right place, then stand firm.
