STORIES THAT TOUCH

I just got this from a friend. read it with an open  heart. May the Good lord grant us understanding ....OG

*****************************************************************************************

I am a 35-year-old brother dying of Aids. I would like to share my testimony with you. I am an owner of a Mortgage Company in Atlanta, GA. I own a 1999 Jaguar and I also own a $350,000 beautiful home in Cobb County. I have a beautiful lady who is deeply in love with me and a loving family. But most important, I have Jesus. This is just a wake up call to all single brothers and sisters who are professing to be Christians but don't want to be complete.

Brothers, I had a beautiful young lady who loves the Lord and worships the ground I walk on. But I still wasn't quite happy because sometimes I would see another sister with a coca cola bottle shape and just wanted to hit it. Because I was using a condom, I thought that I wouldn't catch the Killer "Aids". But guess what? I did. And the person I caught it from was a girl that I knew well. But the condom came off and now I am dying of Aids. Yes, I wore a condom. But yes it did happen. God gives us time after time to straighten our lives up.

I've been saved now for 7 years. I found out 7 months ago that I had the virus and now I have full-blown Aids. And I want you all to know that I have never been with another man. I really didn't think that I was doing anything wrong because I would tell the women who I would deal with about the woman I love. I thought that was good enough. But it wasn't. I am a good man and also a God fearing man but my weakness was women. I really wasn't out there like you may think I was. Every once and a while I would see something I wanted to try. My girlfriend and I were sexually active, but rarely would we do it. She is a praying woman. But I think she was intimate with me because she loved me and she wanted to make me happy.

Brothers and sisters what I am telling you is that God is tired of us hurting each other and using each other for self gratification. God has given me my home, my dream car and a beautiful woman. I've been tithing for 7 years. I am the chairman of my Deacon Board. But when I told my pastor I had Aids, he could not believe it because of the way I would carry myself.

Brothers if you have a sister who loves the Lord and who loves you for who you are and not for what you look like and not for what you have, cherish her. Sisters if you have a brother who loves the Lord, love him cherish him. My life has been altered. I would love to travel and marry this beautiful young lady but now I can't. I've embarrassed my family, and my friends. But I was hard headed and now I must suffer. God is cleaning up. Stop playing with God. God is revealing the secrets of us Christians. Brothers and sisters we don't have to have so many friends, you know what we call them. "The ones we are planning to sleep with but haven't yet." We often say that we don't want anyone to know our business but God is about to reveal some things. Especially us young people. We are beginning to think so carnal. But we say that we have been transformed. We have been transformed from what we want to be transformed from.

We must be real. God knows that the opposite sex attracts. And he knows the desires we have for each other but we don't have to have multiple partners. If I could do it all over again, I would marry the woman I love and live happy forever. But now I can't! But you can! Singles it's not worth it. I love you all! Get rid of casual sex. And fight to prevent promiscuous love making!
