Just know that God loves you as you are and all he wants is to be your strong place and your friend.. Don't be scared. Focus on spending time with him, tell him what's going on in your life, and those fears about him accepting you will gradually lessen as you get to know him. Just think like when you're afraid of God or swirling with OCD doubt about him, that those thoughts and feelings are not from God and therefore not real.

Remember, God knew what He was doing when he created you, He knew the struggles you would face, and He knew that they would become your story. You are YOU and God doesn’t mess up, and I know the church can be a scary place to go when you’re gay. I’m sorry that it’s this way because it shouldn’t be.

I’m gay and also religious. My sexuality really doesn’t affect my faith and vice versa. It is what it is!

A verse that helps me when I’m facing temptation is 1 Corinthians 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

I don’t know what your religion is, but I want you to know that Christians who are only judgmental of gay people are NOT a true representation of how Jesus sees gay people. While God condemns sin, He offers grace and forgiveness.

Acting on gay sexual urges and leading a gay lifestyle is wrong and the Bible condemns it. God doesn’t make anyone gay. Since Adam and Eve sinned humanity has been flawed and had a sinful nature. Some people are gay because of it and other people aren’t gay but they struggle with other sins. But, God loves gay people and He desires to forgive them and have a personal relationship with them just as much as He does anyone else. Any Christian who has shown you judgment for being gay rather than love and guidance to help you is wrong and going directly against what Jesus taught. I am so sorry if you’ve ever had one of these experiences. 1 Corinthians 10:13 teaches us that God will never allow us to be tempted above what we’re able. If we do sin, however, God is still there for us to reconcile with and forgive us. Go to Him with all your troubles and pour your heart out before Him. Nothing is too small for His attention or too big for Him to help you with❤️❤️.

Struggling just need advice or tips
How do I deal with the thought that my OCD thoughts because of their nature are separating me from God? The one night I couldn’t sleep and prayed about it and just said God if I die and go to hell over this just know I’m doing the best I can. This isn’t me and I don’t want it. — I know that it doesn’t work this way but if you have any advice please share. And also please be nice and respectful of my beliefs. Thank you a struggling Christian.

I need some advice
So I haven’t been on this app in a while. But I just want advice on how to overcome this. I’m now 18 and I’ve been trying out dating apps. I’m not gonna lie I’m kinda picky when it comes to dating only because I plan on dating to marry…so I take it a bit more seriously. But for some reason it’s so hard to click with people on these dating apps. So my friend was helping me through this dating apps process. I told her that I wasn’t interested in this guy I was texting anymore because of the way he was responding to my messages. And she says maybe you’re gay…this is honestly the sixth time (I’m definitely over exaggeration but this isn’t the first time someone had said this to me) someone has ask/said this. Every time someone says this it literally sends me down this spiral of are they seeing something I’m not seeing. Despite never having a crush on a girl my mind goes down this loop of overthinking. And when I say I don’t want that lifestyle or I don’t really find pleasure in being apart of the lgbtq community my mind is like in denial. I just wanted to have a fun teenage dating experience and now every time I open the app I always think what if I really am gay and I’m just in denial…or what if the reason why I’m not connecting with anyone is because I’m really into girls. Since i’m also religious, my mom wants to go what you’re denying who we are because of your religion. And I tried to reassure myself by saying I would know if that was the case like I would feel deep down who I’m truly attracted to and know that I’m trying to cover it up by dating men. This whole thing is so mentally taxing because I was going through this all throughout my senior year of high school and I’m not going into my freshman year of college so. Like I literally felt so much anxiety next to one of my classmates who was gay and a masculine presenting. I feel like if I would’ve told this to anyone, they’d say of course you’re in denial. But ig reply if you can relate
