Sorry to hear about your pain. I have been there before. I believe God gives us answers to prayer. It takes time. I don't know why. All I can tell you is that God has answered my prayers and helped me to see the reasons for the many things that have happened in my life. Unfortunately, the answers don't happen right away. I remember in the Bible it says, "Love is patient," and thus sometimes, as hard as it is, we must realize that God will answer in His time. As difficult as it is, we must be patient. We must demonstrate love. I know when you are in despair, it is hard to believe the sun will come out tomorrow. It is hard to understand why God is not interviening. Let me just say that everyone has sexual desires. A father may love his daughter so deeply that he may, at times, fantasize about her. He, too, is in distress. "How can I feel this way towards her?" Everyone who loves someone deeply has a good chance of experiening the thought of having sex with that person. Also, we are all attracted to certain types of people, and that too can lead us into these fantasies. You are human! You may feel so different because your attraction is towards boys. You may feel so alone. You are not alone! There are many of us in the world who feel this way. You are not alone! God is there. IT may not always seem He is, but He is. God knows our pain and our hearts, even the sinful parts of our hearts. It is not easy to believe, but God does forgive us and love us despite our not living up to His perfection. Wishing you peace and love ~Once a boy |
