00:14 Welcome back, I am so proud of God that I can't hardly
00:17 stand it, what I love about God and He so clearly says 00:20 in the Bible, like you said in 1 Corinthians 6 is that 00:24 we got all this junk, homosexuality and sexual sins, 00:28 lying and pride and jealousy and murder, and envy and we 00:34 sexually are out of control in every single way. 00:36 He says you know what? But I will wash you clean of all 00:40 that stuff and I am thinking how can You do that? 00:44 That is not my concern, He just does it. 00:46 He'll work with us Wayne like you know, what ever the 00:49 issues are, and somebody likes to point out your sexual 00:53 orientation as the only issue. 00:55 I just want to guess that that is not the only one you 00:58 have. - oh, you are correct. - you know what I mean? 01:01 It's so ridiculous like when people want to say I am 01:04 only a heroine addict, shut up I've got tons of stuff. 01:06 - I've got other luggage. - yeah. 01:08 I would like you on the last few minutes we have here, 01:11 is I want you to talk to the kid you were, to the person 01:14 you were, the one that still is struggling. 01:17 And if they are watching this program and they are 01:19 struggling and have heard your journey what do you want 01:22 to say to them? 01:24 What I would say is that if you are gay, or a lesbian, 01:28 or you are wandering and wondering, if you are a parent, 01:33 if you are a brother or sister or a relative, you haven't 01:37 seen a whole lot probably in your denomination spoken to 01:42 this issue, go to God and open up His word. 01:46 Read, hear His voice speak to you. 01:51 He knows your heart, He knows what you struggle with, 01:56 He knows that you need to fall on your knees and give it 02:00 all over to Him, let Him have it. 02:03 Tell Him everything that is on your heart and let Him 02:07 speak to your heart, let Him tell you that what He wants 02:11 you to do is His will and not your will. 02:15 Because it's all about letting self-indulgence be removed 02:19 from us and letting the Holy Spirit guide our lives every 02:23 moment of every day. 02:25 What is really incredible is that He knows all of the 02:29 twists, all the turns, all the stuff that I was so ashamed 02:33 of that I would not speak it out loud to anybody. 02:36 God knows and He says you know what? 02:37 I will take all that shame, every part of what you thought 02:41 was so unacceptable, I will take that and bring healing 02:44 into your life and it is unbelievable. 02:47 I will set you free of every addiction, of every part of 02:50 your sadness and your injuries. 02:52 I will set you free and I will show you who you are 02:55 outside of all this junk because you know why? 02:59 You are created in the image of God and all of that is 03:02 good. So until we see you next time always remember 03:04 that God is crazy about you, and I mean that. 03:08 Crazy about you, delights in your recovery, delights 03:11 to work through all of these issues and delights to show 03:14 you who you actually are. 03:15 I will see you next time and until then God bless. |
