I Will Never Laugh at Another Lesbian Joke...

Yesterday I had an interesting experience. I was at work and I was approached by another girl, maybe 23 or 24 years old. She was very pretty, and she introduced herself to me. She said her name was also Rachel, and she had been looking for me. Then she told me she had a question for me, and then asked me, "Do you date other women?".
The first time I saw her, a few weeks back, I could somehow sense that this woman was a lesbian. Maybe it was the double take she did, or just her body language. I don't know. But when she approached me yesterday, I somehow knew what she was going to ask before she said a word.
I somehow mumbled my way through explaining that I was straight. But my heart went out to that young woman. I wish I had stopped her when she rushed out on me. I wish I had tried to talk to her more, try to be a friend for her... She seemed so lonely, so nervous. And when she left, she seemed so ashamed and let down.
I am praying for Rachel. She is leading a self-destructive, lonely life that will only lead to disappointment and perversion. She is trying to fill a natural, God-given need (our sexual desires) with a cheap, perverted imitation. But I don't condemn Rachel for where she is. No, she is merely a sinner like you and I. She does not know God, and without God, there is no light at all. She is vulnerable to the world's lies that there are sexual preferences, and if you are tempted towards a homosexual lifestyle, then you are naturally gay, and have the right to fulfill that preference.
No, she has it all wrong. Such behavior is a perversion of a beautiful portrayal of God's very relationship in the Trinity. Sex is for a man and a woman in the marriage state. All sexual behavior outside of this boundary is a perversion of God's word.
Rachel, if you ever get to read this, please know that I am praying for you, and please, don't feel condemned by me. You and I are no different. We are both sinners in the eyes of God. The only reason I can hope in my future and have joy in my present is because of Jesus Christ's death for my sins. He loves you. He died so that you can be no longer a slave to this lifestyle, but a slave to his love. Seek Him, and you will find Him.
