Thanks F.O.D.! I just want to touch on your comment about what impact being a loved boy had on my Christian faith... The answer to that is: none. I've been through good and bad times, times of sadness and grief, and times of overwhelming joy, even a few years where I was bitter at God and at BD (the man) blaming both of them for my sexuality. Those times came and went, yet through everything, my faith in God and my belief in Salvation only grew stronger. I credit my parents for ingraining the Truth in me so well at a young age, and I credit God for sticking by me, and never letting me forget that He was there. God is good, very very good. Tim P.S. BD was and is a Christian too. At least in belief, I'm not sure if he was really born again at the time, but I know he is now. |
