Hey GRA, I'm not sure if I'm a boylover, if I'm gay, if I'm bi, if I'm straight, or what. I do know I'm celibate, love God, and have a special heart and gift for reaching out to teenage boys. I think God made me this way for a reason and he brings special boys into my life all the time. I recently went to Mexico on a church service project with the 15 year old I mentor and was able to see him reach out to others, in God's name, as I've reached out to him. I can't think of a better feeling....I'm so proud of him. The kid spoke briefly at a landfill where we were handing out food and clothing and also spoke at a church where we stayed. It was more than I could have done. You may have sexual feelings towards boys.....I do too, on occasion, but I don't have any problems keeping those feelings in check and I don't let those feelings keep me from fullfilling God's call for my life. Because of your special feelings for boys you are in a position to make a huge difference in the lives of some hurting kids. There are a lot of unloved boys in this world that could use a friend. You can set yourself free, with God's help, by not feeling guilty about your feelings and emotions. You need to keep the sex thing to yourself, but otherwise, let your love for boys flow out and you'll be surprized at how great it feels to make a difference in some young lives.....and how receptive some of them are to being loved and having a special, older, friend. God bless, Don |
