Seeing the Source

Should a Same-Gender-Loving man see only popularity, he becomes a mirror, reflecting whatever needs to be reflected to gain acceptance. Though in vogue, he is vague. Though in style, he is stodgy.

Should a Same-Gender-Loving man see only power, he becomes a wolf—prowling, hunting, and stalking the elusive game. Recognition is his prey and people are his prizes. His quest is endless.

Should a Same-Gender-Loving man see only pleasure, he becomes a carnival thrill-seeker, alive only in bright lights, wild rides, and titillating entertainment. With lustful fever, he races from ride to ride, satisfying his insatiable passion for sensations only long enough to look for another…

Seekers of popularity, power, and pleasure. The end result is the same: painful unfulfillment.

Only in seeing our Maker do we truly become whole. For in seeing our Creator, we catch a glimpse of what we are intended to be.

“Whoever has seen me has seen the Father.” John 14:9
