We all sin everyday, Christian or not...if anyone says they don't they are either in a coma or a liar.
I respect you saying you love God and believe in Him. I do too!
That being said, if you love Him why continue the same sin over and over again? It is God that said being homosexual was a sin. If God thought it was natural He wouldn't have said it was a sin and a detestable act. He thought it so vile that He said...fine they want to be perverted than I'm going to give them over to a debased mind. They will die in their sins, but they will think that they are doing "right" because their mind has been twisted into thinking they are o.k. or thinking that God made them that way.
I'm sorry you feel that not being a lesbian makes you feel like you have to pretend to be something you're not. That is the exact opposite of how God created you. God didn't make you a lesbian...you made you a lesbian.
If you love God as you say you do, than you will do everything in your power to turn from sin. Do I have to tell you that being a homosexual is a sin? Yes, it is, despite what the "world" says.
We turn from sin by reading His word, praying, repenting, and putting our faith completely in Him. Look up and not down. Care about others and not yourself. Store up your treasures in heaven and not on earth. Go to God for comfort and he will comfort and heal your body, mind, and soul. God loves you like no one else can or does. Don't back hand Him by saying you're a lesbian. Society may tell you that being gay is o.k., but I won't and God most certainly never did. If you are a Christian then act like one. Stand up for what God says is the truth and not what you or anyone else defines as the truth or a sin. Deny yourself and serve the Lord. If that means not having sex or a "partner' then so be it. Don't. If it interferes with your relationship with God then get it out of your life. Die to yourself and pick up your own cross. The road is hard and narrow, but the reward is sure and true.
You can either choose God or you can choose lust of the flesh. It can't be both. Just like money, you serve one or the other, not both.

You were O.K. untill GOD sent you to the Earth to be Born.
We ALL get Messed Up when we come Down here to be Born.
Some, more than Others.
Jesus is the Only One Who can help People Figure Themselves out.
This is a Very Deep Subject.
Just to show you how Deep, Adam was Male and Female to Start out with, then GOD put him to Sleep and Took out the Female, and made Woman (Womb-man, man with the Womb).
Sounds crazy don't it?
Why do men have Breast?
Oh well, I am Glad Jesus is the Judge, some Things are Just to Hard for me to Figure Out.
I try not to Exercise Myself in Things that are Too High for me.
Jesus will Help Anybody, if they Ask.
Who ever anybody is, I am Glad that they Know Jesus.
Later my Bro.'s and Sis.'s in Christ, What Ever. I Love You.

God created the world perfect according to Genesis. Also, according to Genesis, the whole world fell to corruption as a result of man's sin, prompted by the Devil's fall. So "as by one man (Adam) sin entered into the world, and death by sin..." (Romans 5:12)
So to answer your question, no God didn't make you, or me, or anyone perfect. God made Adam untainted, but Adam became corrupted, and through Adam and Eve, everything else is conceived in imperfection. An honest look at anyone, and what happens in the world will demonstrate this.
You don't have to pretend to be something you're not, because we're all sinners, but God has made provisions for our forgiveness and redemption through Jesus (you can read more about it in Romans if you're really interested). Through Jesus' perfection, you can find the strength to live as God desires.
I wish you the best according to God's will.

The only perfect people were Adam, Eve and Jesus. According to the Bible, humans show love to God by being obedient to his commands, loving what he loves and hating what he hates. The Bible clearly states that a gay/lesbian lifestyle is not looked upon favorably by God, so its hard to understand how you can say you love God if you've chosen that type of lifestyle. You clearly embrace your lesbianism which is contrary to God's requirements for Christians. Romans 1:26, 27 brings out that God found the sexual appetites of lesbians and gays to be disgraceful, contrary to nature, and obscene. And though 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 lists "men who lie with men" as among those who will not inherit the kingdom, this applies to women who lie with women as well.

If you think you are perfect go and try to walk on water. Only Jesus Christ is perfect and if you are a lesbian, you are not a true Christian because in the Bible it says that relationship should be of man and woman ONLY!
sorry to be mean, but the truth hurts

So you are saying that persons born with a non-heterosexual orientation is born perfect and should be treated as such. Since there are now more than five equally recognized sexual orientations, including the sexual attraction to children, should they also be treated as having been made perfect by God and left alone to live the life style they were born into? They were recognized in the same manner as Homosexuals, as a result of a vote taken at an APA conference. Homosexuality was done in the 70s, those attracted to children was voted on in San Diego in 2001.
If you believe that their sexual orientation should not be treated with the same respect and equality as your sexual orientation, than who should decide who deserves equal rights or not, and what should be their qualifications in making that decision?

First, Jesus Christ is God manifest in the flesh. They are on in the same. If you do not have this revelation, then you cannot really say you love God. As for the rest, I will not throw a bunch of scripture at you. I will let the Holy Ghost deal with that.

Tough position you are in. Obviously, you are having problems with being a Christian AND being a lesbian. You should. God is attempting to let you know that He is not comfortable with that. Just like we cant say that I am a practicing murderer and a christian. Or a professional christian burglar. "Welcome to Peter Paul and Mary's boutique. We take, steal and cheat, we give some to God, the rest we keep." It might take you a lifetime to endure what you have to to basically turn away from iniquity (that is, continually practiced sin). For some people its lying, for some stealing, for some fornicating, for some adultery. We all have something that causes us to be imperfect in God's eyes. But we strive to please God and to change that which does not please Him, not because we are forced to, but because His Spirit abides in us, and we are convicted. God loves us regardless. But He also knows the intents of your heart and the thoughts in your mind. God will not be mocked.
