But I dont believe you can introduce them to God right now. To introduce them to God you have to first be a role model. You have to be someone that they look at and they see God. You cant introduce them to God if when they look at you what they see is a pedophile or a fag or whatever it is. You cant introduce them to God when your life is a shambles and your relationship with them is fubar. Why would someone be interested in the God of that person they all consider a perv? Why would anyone be interested in the God of that person that is so easy to manipulate for money? You aren't a good example right now, and your testimony to them has shown them only about prostituting themselves and manipulating people's emotions for money. Im afraid you are not in a position to minister to these young men and if you want to be in that position its gonna require you to change first. It needs to be a visible change, it needs to be positive and you need to be someone to look up to. You need to change yourself before you can attempt to change others. Furthermore, I think you are convincing yourself that you need to introduce these young men to christ in order to rationalize the fact that you find it too difficult to leave them, even though in your heart you know that is what you must do. Good Luck. Love, Drifter e-mail: webnomad@ziplip.com url: http://www.fpc.net/sites/drifter/ |
