Honesty vs. Abandonment

"When we are honest with God, when our souls have been laid bare, and we experience his acceptance, the fear of abandonment subsides."



James Bryan Smith. Embracing the Love of God: The Path and Promise of Christian Life. HarperSanFransico: New York (1995). p.38

Weakness and Strength

The paradox here is that God's strength is realized upon the admission of weakness. In other words, the homosexual tendency becomes the channel of God's strength once submitted to him.
