• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Hello there,
Well, I am hoping I can get some prayer support, I have a gay friend I have been wittnessing too, and here lately he has given me some good oppurtunities to talk deep with him, about scripture and spiritual things. The only problem is he is not very accepting of the things I do get to share with him, even though he asks.
Can I have people out there say a short prayer for him, that his heart would be softened, and that God's word will penetrate his soul. I figure the more people praying the better "where to or three are gathered in my name..."
I know Iam on God's time here and it could take a life time to get through to my friend, but please pray the he will be set free.
Thanks!

It seems that he's getting God's word, it has penetrated his soul, and all ... only, it is by GRACE through faith that we are saved, and you can't speed that up one bit. I know it sounds harsh but this friend of yours will probably resist what you're saying to the last thread, but at the last moment, maybe years down the road, he may turn to Christ for salvation. You never know really. Just trust God, and don't worry.
