Let's just cut to the chase: the reason I'm here is because I'm a young Christian guy who struggles with homosexual attractions. Creating this anonymous blog allows me to further process both out loud and in community all the things I'm going through in regards to this struggle.
The interesting part in all of this is I already feel semi-involved in the "SSA-struggling Christian guy" blogosphere even though I haven't really contributed anything yet. I've already made some great friends and connections with solid Christian guys who have helped me at this pivotal time in my spiritual journey.
So I'm excited to get started on working through all the thoughts and arguments I've had to deal with on my own for so long. Being able to get involved now in a more tangible way and having the opportunity to tell my own story will hopefully assist me in this healing process as well as chronicle the stops along the way. As the title says, "This too shall come to pass..." I fully believe, whether in a year or at the end of my life, that God's faithfulness and plan will reign supreme over my life. I've already caught a glimpse of his love over this last year of my life but I'm pressing in for him to reveal even more aspects of his character to me. I want to be completely immersed in his presence!
Another purpose for this blog is to practice being open and honest and focus on telling my story. I strongly believe in the power of testimony of every Christian. When we're obedient to present our story about the work God is doing in our life then he's faithful to use that in other people's lives. I can attest to this truth in my own life just from reading the various blogs both on blogspot and xanga.
There's so much more to share but I'll save it for another blog. I have a feeling that I'll begin power blogging for this first month or so until I get everything I've already gone through (my past) caught up with where I'm currently at (my present).
Lastly, if you'd like to contact me feel free to do so at andthistooshallcometopass@gmail.com.
(And yes, I realize it's a ridiculously long email address but for the sake of continuity it made total sense.)
