But let me tell you I was Teased from grade school to high school It really hurt and I was damaged really bad people called me *** every day I went to school. I finely quit and had a nervous break down!! Luck was with me with my mother she was very supportive. My family was great about it all and I did have a few black friends manly grills tho.
I went to church for many answers and only found out that they hurt me to I could not be Gay and love God and he didn't love me so my self esteem was damaged so bad I turned to a life of addictions and buried my feelings about being Gay and it was bad but God did love I just didn't know it!!! I thought it might be better to be stright so I married a women and was marrired for 4 years I have two sons that I love verry much I was faithfull to her and did love her but I was always turning my head to the left to look at men and going to church at that time tring to be accpted by God I need God to love me I that was the only way I knew how to get him to love me!!!! I found my self hateing my self all together!!! I told my wife I needed to leave and I did just that.
Now I am married to a man. I love my self and found my spirit at the age of 34!!! And God does love me I found my sprit and live in peace with my self and God Iam even studing to be a minster in my faith. God is so Good and I am a good person and I now no one can take it away from me.

The Bible is against what you said.
Jesus said he gives the peace the world cannot give.
You have the world's peace, not God's.
Most sinners ARE happy folks, so what else is new?
It says in the Bible that homosexuality IS a sin.
End of story! Case closed! God said so!
The Bible also tells of having the conscience seared with a hot iron.
God sends strong delusion to believe a lie.
Paul said God will turn you over to a reprobate mind.
God said in the Old Testament and in the New that what you're doing is sin.
You weren't seeking to serve God, but you were seeking to have your homosexual desires satisfied.
This was your goal, not God's WILL.
Jesus preached the gospel of self-denial, to take up the cross and follow him. That he who loses his life will find it and he who saves his life will lose it.
You don't have me fooled, nor is God in your perverted relationship.
I will stand for God that you are living in sin.
Your problem came when you REFUSED to believe the gospel, but your faith was in your sexual organs and hormones and so you had pleasure in unrighteousness.
You claim you suffered, well, many people do also and they still serve God in their sufferings.
Your whole case is you can't help lusting after men.
gee, poor old you...some Christians have had their heads chopped off for the gospel.
Then you try and make me believe it is God in you doing this.
No, God is NOT in your relationship.
Of course God LOVES you and he will love you forever and he will walk with you all the way even to the gates of hell.
But he won't go in there with you.
I'm so tired of homosexuals saying God is for their sin, when he died to save you from it.
Get over it already!

God is very Good and Loves all the Children. It's the Children that don't always remember they should Love.
I'm glad to hear you found who you should be and that you've come to terms with it and with God. Don't let any of the bashers try to sway you with hatred and fear. God isn't hatred and fear. God Loves. Man Hates. If we were just all a little bit kind to each other the world would be a much better place.
Blessings to you, your new husband and your sons (and your wife as well for putting up with all of this) May your spirit fly free once again.

I can relate to most of what you said except getting married to a woman and having children. I had been teased about being gay through school too but I finally realized that I needed to live my life the way it was meant to be spent with another man. People will hate us and call us sinner but they have no idea what it means to be gay, they just see two people of the same-sex together and think that it's wrong. They say delusional things about homosexuality that it's some evil temptation from the devil and that's not true. The bible keep people in control and delusional. I believe it to be nothing but a cult now that brainwashes people.

YES!!!
I have been there, and now I'm better able to deal with it. I have a good spiritual connection with the Almighty and know that He loves me, and it is not wrong to be as I am.
For many years, I have struggled with my homosexuality to point of becoming a drug addict. My life was horrible, but God did come to me in my time of need, and told me to accept what and who I am.
I have also recently been diagnosed with HIV, which is another issue all on it's own, except for this:
It is a blessing. My life was going totally in the wrong direction.
I'm doing much better now, have gotten my life straightened up, and have even written a bock all about this. I am just waiting for agent to get it sold.
There is no sin in being who we are, the sin is in not accepting it!!!

Congratulations!!!
I hope you and your husband have a wonderful, fulfilling and loving life together!!!
Hon, I too lived a very similar life you did. It took me years to realize that God made me exactly the way I was supposed to be and by accepting it and being honest about it...I found God has blessed my life numerously!!!
I too hated thinking I was different. I didn't want anyone to know that I was gay. I prayed about it and begged God to change me.
When that didn't work, I went the complete opposite direction and thought lots of straight sex would simply make me not be attracted to girls anymore.
When that didn't work, I wrongfully assumed that marring a man, settling down and having children would 'cure' me once and for all.
Well, my marriage didn't last because of other issues and we divorced fairly soon afterwards.
It still took me several more years after our divorce to finally come to terms with my true nature and accept that no matter what I did I could never change who I was.
I prayed again, asked God for an answer. To help me be at peace with what he made.
My answer came when I finally came out to my family.
They were wonderful. My mother actually said to me: "honey, what took you so long?"
Since then I have found a wonderful life partner, I have a well adjusted and amazing son, great and supportive friends and a loving family.
I have truly been blessed.

I would like to say that I am sorry for your hard life. That is life though, we all struggle in life. Life is cruel sometimes. You just need to put all of that in the past and live for what you got now. You can't let the past stop you from living now and keep you upset. I am happy that you found a man that makes you happy. Trying to hide the fact that you were gay and married a woman, you were just lying to yourself. I think that deep down, you were unhappy during that 4 years. You can't change your feelings towards men, and God loves you no matter what!

God is in control of the struggle and He provides all that we need to live for Him and persevere in the faith. 1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it. 2 Peter 1:2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, 3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, 4 by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

heyyyyyyeeeeeeeee, I know how you feel I wasn't sure was I gay or bisexual when I was growing up, all I knew was I was attracted to men and at the same time I had an attraction to Tina Turner as well I have been attracted to both sexes since I was little, some of them were my teachers, tons of them were boys in my classroom, to make a long true story short as possible, as I got older and older and older, and in my junior year in high school,
in October 2006 I came out of the closet as bisexual in school because I was sick of people asking me questions about my personal life, they would come up to me and ask me was I gay and I would say no, I did lots and lots of reading on gays and lesbian and the risks of coming out the closet,
here are some of the movies and people who helped me come out the closet,

I love gay people, there is nothing wrong with being gay, gay people are human beings too, they have the same rights as straight people do, heterosexual people have to get educated and learn about gay and lesbian and people who love differently, they say they hate gay people but a gay person might end up saving their life one day.
I love your picture, is that your significant other?

Nobody ahs a problem with God loving them. People have a problem when they let others convince them that God doesn't love them. Being gay is natural, just as being straight is. Your problem was not with God but with a bigoted society, social set, and church.
Good for you for accepting that and living your life as you were meant to live it.
JO: I will not try to give you a lesson in theology (which you obviously need) but I will point out that GOD did not die for your sins, Christ did. I'll also [point out that Christ said not a word about homosexuality but spoke volumes about judgement.
