I am your
friend. I’m gay. Homosexual if you like. I have always felt this way. I have never been
able to connect with heterosexuality and I believe that because I cannot tell
you how it began that it is part of my being.
I therefore don’t know if anything can really change. I know the words of the Bible because I
follow Christ. Now what? ---
My friend is
gay (or homosexual, as my friends put it). He doesn’t know how it started or
when it started. So he believes that
it’s always been a part of him and therefore born with it making it something God
accepts and is open to. ---
Searching for
answers, I spoke to someone who said they were in the gay lifestyle and they
also followed Christ and he (Jesus) led him out of the lifestyle. Is that really possible? What does it mean for
someone to be led out of the lifestyle? I don’t know what to think.
Here is how
our conversation went:
He asked me
what my prayer is for my friend. I thought that was an interesting question, since
I’d never really thought about it. I just simply prayed that he would change,
that God would do something to change him. Having to face that question caused
me to realize that I didn’t know what to pray for. I just know that Jesus loves
us and I wanted my friend to be loved by Jesus.
