Pray About Everything

Want to worry less? Then pray more.

Can’t handle the fact that you’re gay? Are you living in torment of the self-inflicted pain of your homosexuality, as it relates to your spiritually? Then, “Pray about it.”

Rather than look forward in fear, look upward in faith. This command surprises no one. Regarding prayer, the Bible never blushes. Jesus taught people that “it was necessary for them to pray consistently and never quit (Luke 18:1 MSG). Paul told believers, “Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart” (Col. 4:2 NLT) James declared, “Are any among you suffering? They should keep on praying about it” (James 5:13 NLT).

Rather than worry about anything, “pray about everything.” Everything? Yes. Heterosexuals pray for a mate. Why can’t you as a Same-Gender-Loving Person do the same? “Pray about everything!” Business meetings and broken friendships! Procrastination and prognostications! Pray about everything.

Gods says to the Same-Gender-Loving Person, "Call to me in times of trouble. I will save you, and you will honor me." Psalm 50:25

Like the acronym, P.U.S.H- Pray until something happens.

Like the part about heteros praying for a mate.

Sometimes I "felt" odd about praying for a mate. Now I pray for continued good health, divine guidance, support and a custom made lover. I am so grateful.
