I live in depression almost everyday thinking about how I’m gay. I don’t want to be. I love Jesus and I don’t understand why I’m this way i seriously can’t help it. I think about suicide from it. I won’t actually do it. And I don’t want anyone to think i want attention by saying that. I’m just being honest and I don’t want my depression/thoughts get stronger. I don’t love myself. I’m insecure about everything. And I wish Jesus would just show up out of no where and show me how much he loves me. I just want a hug from him that will take all my worries away and change me with delivering me out of this cage I’m in.

When you said " you may struggle with this for your entire life until you free in heaven" 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I struggle with these feelings. However through my Father Jesus Christ I have denounced the lifestyle. SATAN had me believe I was "born Gay"....my Saviour JESUS says I am "Born Again".

I repented for my lesbianism and now my desire is gone....❤️....I was married and I got a divorce from my ex wife. Now I love Christianity used to make me angry but now I love will remain single unless god send me a handsome kind hearted man.

Its more a struggle to pretend to be straight

To my fellow brothers and sisters in christ...i personally know how hard it is to battle with same sex attractions, its a constant war between body and spirit it might take years to win but you will get through this...just try not to focus too much on the matter coz you might lose yourself or even worse hate yourself...jesus has your back put your faith in him...pray, pray and pray always

To anybody watching this, i promise you the more you push down your feelings of homosexuality the more anguish you will feel. If there is an all seeing god, he would understand that homosexuality is not wrong and hurts nobody. The notion that it is a sin, is a misinterpretation of his word. Don’t believe me? Keep pushing them down and see what happens. You will come to learn that if you are gay? You were born that way for a reason. Be yourself people. Please.

"Struggle is actually a good thing" - Ps. You cannot know what that just meant and did for me.

I'm starting to accept that my struggle with same sex attraction is going to be part of whatever plans God has for me in the future to reach more people, who - like me...have this struggle.

If I didn't have it - they wouldn't relate, and neither would I.

Thank you for posting this video.

Hello from England here. Some people can struggle with their sexuality very much I've had a very negative experience of this. I was raised as a Catholic and still carry this faith in my heart. I've always wanted to be a parent and settle with someone. I've gone from one relationship to another with men and nothing positive to look back on, I've turned 40 and still struggling. I was outed to my family in a very cruel way and it's never been the same since. All I've ever wanted was an ordinary happy life but it's proving to be an impossible task. I've pulled myself away from LGBT the scene doesn't help only makes you feel worse as it's all revolved around alcohol. Most people I feel in this country are happy to go round in circles in their life only to realise later nothing has been achieved. My family have never really accepted me being gay and when I compare myself to other gay people there are big differences. I do feel I would prefer to have a woman in my life but it's probably too late and I don't think I would have much to offer so feel like my destiny is to continue with my life the way it is. Most people in England have a positive journey and feel proud being gay with me it's the opposite even though I know this is who I am and don't have much say or choice on the matter it causes me undesired pain. This is something the church couldn't support me with because being gay or bi isn't recognised as a Catholic but I won't just throw away my faith so where do I go from here. I feel my life is like a maze platform I'm never able to find a way out of. If anyone feels like this as well please comment. I must support the pastor also by saying there is no hate on his part some people are simply misinterpreting the message and reading it in their own way and that can cause friction during communication quite often when we aren't considerate towards the good nature of others

I am 20 years old 4 years ago I understood that gay and Christianity don't mix the first thing that came to my mind was what's the cure..I read endless bible passages and scriptures and it all pointed to just don't be gay I am not struggling with homosexual acts but homosexual thoughts I don't want to see a guy the same way I am supposed to see girls but it's a struggle my heart stopped when you said some people might leave with this there entire life because it sucks 😞 and to know that I will keep struggling also sucks but I love Jesus more than anything in the world because I have faith and I trust him I just pray I never give in to my homosexual thoughts

If there is a church out there who deals with homosexuality. I m sick of being at churches where no one claims to struggle with these feelings or wants to be open about it

You don't have to struggle all your life on earth, God delivers.

For all people who struggle with homosexuality, I pray for you for more strength. Amen | Preğa Militisto

Thank you for your message. I've always questioned Gods will because he decided to put my G-Spot in my ass, and wondered why he was tormenting me with thoughts of shirtless men. Now I know its because he wants me to struggle and overcome my sin-ladled urges to be a better Christian. Bless this man and everyone else struggling to face Gods light with a pure heart.

I´m not a Protestant i´m an Orthodox Christian and there are Orthodox Saints whom were Homosexual and we can learn a lot from them

[Alex-yemm]

For you people questioning your sexuality, if you see this comment, know that you are valid and you are you and you CANT CHANGE THAT. Please do not consider trying to be who you arent.

[joshuakampamba]

Poor souls didn't ever ask to feel that way😭😭😭 it breaks my heart

[sointaminn]

im not struggling with homosexuality im actually very good at it

[Frostbunny]

Thank you for this message.
As of late the devil has really been attacking me with thoughts of homosexuality. Not sexual feelings but emotional ones.
I feel so much pain in my heart because I've never had a friend like her. I know it's wrong that I have feeling of romantic love for her. The world isn't helping either. Friends and coworkers try to push us together. I know she has feelings for me. I vented to mutual friend about my struggle. They are a Christan and they suggested going for it which was not what I was looking for.
I'm terrified she will act on her feelings. We work together, we have the same friends, and see each almost everyday. I will deny they connection if she confess and it will break her heart but I just can't.
I just can't. I'm crying and struggling so much over this.
I feel like I can't tell my parents, church members, or pastor because I'm scared they will look at me differently.
I've done this to myself. I made friends and socialized with people I shouldn't have. I've keep quiet when I shouldn't have. I accepted all my students when they identified as a part of the LGBTQ. I made people believe that I was okay with it and didn't care instead of witnessing to them.
I deserve the suffering but I can't handle it. I just want God to make it all go away.
It apart of God's plan.
I never thought I would struggle with homosexuality growing up. It was an unbelievable and ridiculous idea in my mind. But know I'm 25 and struggling with a sin that I never concerned myself with worrying about.

I separated myself from organized religion. So, I pretty much struggled on my own. Never did I come to a position, though, where I believed homosexuality wasn't a sin. (God preserved me). And God still made I was ready to receive them. Took decades, but I think more and more like a heterosexual man. Somebody shout.."Amen!"
