Sick and Vacation

I am on Vacation, and have had a great time. But, one very disturbing thing on my trip is seeing many sick people in the streets. I am in San Francisco, USA. This city is known for its gay population. I have read that one in 10 people here is gay. Does God love the gay? He sure does, but he does not love the life style. He tells clearly in the scriptures not to follow that style.

And here? Well I have seen many people sitting on the streets, huddled over with signs saying they are dieing from the illness connected with the gay life style. The signs ask for compassion and money. It is clear they are very ill and my heart reaches out in compassion to these gentlemen. In my home town we also see very sick people, dieing from drug use. I also have deep compassion as I see these people dieing.

God has many laws; not for his benefit. They are for ours. And any law God gives is to protect us and care for us. I wonder how God looks at me, as he sees me breaking laws he gives. I imagine he must be touched by all of our sins. As he knows those sins are killing his children. Sins is sin. Sin kills. God is love and wishes to restore.
