He's hurting, Alan, and angry. And he might not just be not-gay - he might be anti-gay. And if he IS gay/latent/self-loathing. . . it sounds like a recipe for a 48 hours mystery.<br /><br />God is so far past sexuality - he really doesn't care how we manifest our feeble version of love - why would he? At best, our orgasms are a shard of God's love for us - a wish of the actual feeling. And like I drone about to those who would listen - a divine sacrifice faces no limitations in who it covers - everybody wins. Well, except God and Jesus, which is why we all win.<br /><br />IMO.Ned Hodgsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00056581871990680238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7364249691989051292.post-18269732737538352302009-06-29T07:49:48.803-04:002009-06-29T07:49:48.803-04:00Consider yourself officially promised. I'm no...Consider yourself officially promised. I'm not saying I'm immune to that kind of victimization, but I'm not alone fer nuthin'. Jester's not the ONLY dude who looks like Jason Statham. :-)<br /><br />Thank you for that video. That thing he said about our self-esteem getting in the way--I have to believe that even that isn't stopping God from giving us the love we need.<br /><br />I've thrown myself on God's mercy. I know I can no longer predict His reaction because of that bill of goods you're talking about. So I'm not going to try anymore. I'm just going to fall into His lap and cry for understanding. And I liked what that guy said about God already knowing every skeleton in our closets--and also how we tend to make Him in our image. My trust now is that God is not as petty as I am.<br /><br />Thanks again.Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02926157658538605081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7364249691989051292.post-68097881521712057922009-06-29T00:06:25.912-04:002009-06-29T00:06:25.912-04:00"No, all I have to do is just BE.

I just have to stop fearing Him and what He might think about me. In fact, start trusting that He knew all this about me for the past 44 years of my life, and STILL loves me..." </i><br /><br />SO agree with this. We've been sold a rotten bill of goods, Alan. We were told we were loved by God except when (fill in the blank). We were taught to believe that God's grace is limited, only goes so far, that God's "unconditional" love was dependent upon us doing the right things, and abiding by the right rules. Trust in God's love for you. Trust that His grace is as radical and as extravagant as He says it is.<br /><br />And promise me, if you ever decide to come out, that you won't become involved in a relationship with someone as emotionally abusive as The Jester.<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQi_IDV2bgMGrizzBabehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07229663134377237230noreply@blogger.com
