Hi Everyone, Last night I did the coolest thing. The Christian rock band Petra did a "concert" at a local church and I went and it just blew me away. I feel like I'm just on fire! And while I was there praising God, a thought went through me and all of a sudden something became very clear. It has been about a year since I've even entered a church because I've always felt like I didn't belong there, like I couldn't fit in. Now I realise how wrong I was. Because I found myself praising God along with everyone else last night and feeling right at home there. I stoped to wonder if perhaps there might be other Christian boyloves there as well and then it occured to me that I just might be the only one there. However, I was still feeling right at home in God's presense with all the rest of His children.....it felt good, it felt right for once. It was then that the thought occured to me that maybe we are boylovers for a very good reason. I've often wondered why a sinful world would seek to persecute people who one would think were largely a part of it. In other words, why would satan persecute his own servents. I don't think he would, unless he saw something that is obviously of God. Perhaps we are boylovers for a perpose. Perhaps we are boylovers because God needs boylovers. Perhaps we are boylovers because we can reach boys in a way that others cannot. I have had the extreem privalege to lead several kids to the Lord so far in my life. Perhaps this is exactly WHY I am a boylover, WHY I feel the way I do twords boys and WHY God has not removed these feelings from me.....I know He could if He wished. Anyone care to comment? Your's in Christ's love, Chris |
