Well like so many other I too struggle with homosexuality. I was the ministers son, the one everyone believed could never fail. But I did. I decided to rebel against the church and went down many horrible roads. I was in many homosexual relationships, abused alcohol, and drugs,. I finally broke down and told my fam, the scariest thing i have ever had to do. I still tried to live my sinful life but thanks to my fams help i realized it was goin to get me into hell. I struggle daily with my problems. i am always daily reminded of my mistakes. Yet with God I can make it through it. I am still invited to the parties and my old "friends"still call but God is givin me the strength to stand. Please pray for me

I'll definitely be praying for you man. We all need to rely on the strenght given by God to get through these struggles cause we can't do it alone.

Remember, your PAST mistakes don't define who you are... and they don't define your future. Just as there is nothing you can do to make God hate you, there is also nothing you can do to make Him love you any more than He already does. Your worth and value is given by Him... not by any man or woman here on earth and your past, present or future sins do not subtract from your worth and value.

Stand firm in the knowledge that He created you to be HIS man. Commit yourself to Him and leave the past in the past.

Thanks everyone for the replies. I am setting here at work now but just ref;ecting on the past year. I was talking to my friends yesterday, she had a party and one of my ex's( a guy) was invited. When he walked in the room it got very awkward. I got to thinkin that though it has been about two months since i have had alcohol and about 2 weeks since I have had drugs. I wish I could say it had been longer, but I am trying. I really did make alot of mistakes this past year but I realize my family is starting to put themm in the past. We sat down and watched a movie together last night. We now set down and laugh, but I still feel horrible for what I have put them through. I wish I could turn back time, but now I see that I need to let go and let God have complete and utter control.

brother... you said it all! Remember, "time heals." Let time be your friend. Your responsibility to God and yourself is for right now... this moment... today. You can't do anything to change yesterday and tomorrow isn't here yet. Rest in the fact that you are serving and obeying Him TODAY.
