Yes there is! God has a perfect plan and purpose for your life even if you can't see it right now.
Jeremiah 29:11 King James Version (KJV)
[SUP]11 [/SUP]For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
I've felt like that before and so have many others. You aren't the only person who has ever been down. I'm pulling for you man. God's on your side. He loves you and so do I.
I've faced sins in my life, we all have. If we told the truth a lot of us would receive just as much condemnation for our love of pornography, our fornications, and our adultery as anyone facing same sex attraction. The good thing is that you have it out in the open now to face. It can be overcome just like the other sins I mentioned. It's all sin, none worse than any other and Jesus died to set us all free from sin.
There's not enough room or here and I can't peck at this key board enough to say all I need to say to properly help you overcome but I'll keep trying as much as possible. Contact me if you like and I'll get you some help with materials from someone who isn't just out to condemn you.

I dont normally speak in a teen forum unless I see a serious issue and this is one of these issues.You said "why wouldn't God want me to be happy"? Well the problem with that is God sees your entire life.He knows the consequences of the choices you make.He knows the right choice for your life,better than you do.We're all like children.We tell God what will make us happy because thats what we want in the moment,thats what we think will fulfill us and we want it now.When God says no we say "dont you want me to be happy"? But God sees everything and knows what is ahead.You need to trust Him and His leading.
God will not lead you to something that is against His word.Homosexuality is against His plan for your life.It may seem like something you want now,you may see no harm in it,it may even make you happy.But the Bible says there is pleasure in sin...for a season.Then guilt hits and depression and you realize you are in bondage.Sin will bind you.Pray and ask God to lead you in the right path.People think that God wants us to be happy,but Gods biggest concern for our life is that we follow Him and His will,not our own desires.You are headed in the wrong direction.Be careful,once you go down the path away from God its not easy to find your way back.

The Bible disagrees with what you are saying.If you are a Christian,and you say you are,how do you square what God says about homosexuality with the choice you have made? Be careful,sin leads us all in the wrong direction sometimes. We think if it brings us pleasure and its not hurting anyone how can it be wrong? God has loving limits for sex for a reason.God created sex and he says homosexuality is against His plan for our lives.Or any sex outside marriage.God created male and female with their respective anatomy for a reason.He had a plan and anything outside that is wrong and a sin.And the Bible says sin is death.I hope you rethink your choice in life.Read the Bible for yourself and see what God says on the subject.If you are a Christian you want to follow Gods plan right? You want to do His will? Then you need to pray and honestly ask God if you are making the right choice.

IT matters. You are making a false assertion. The false assertion you are making is in diametric opposition to what the bible teaches and the rules of logic. Of course, it matters and matters for many reasons including that God matters and people matter.
You are in desperate need of a logic 101 course at your local college and a good bible study group.

IT doesn't matter, you matter, I matter, people matter:

My Dear Brother
I pray that you find your real self again.. not the gay self but You as God Created
I respect all the LGBT people but I hate their acts and believes because it is contrary to God's creations
If You claim yourself as a christians You must proved it
I have many church members who were gays before but since they know the truth they were set free and they admitted it wasn't easy but with the Help of God they had overcome it.
let me give you some words of encouragements that you can find in the Bible (Word of God)
Titus 2:11-12 ESV
- For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age,
2 Timothy 3:1-5 ESV
- But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.
" being LGBT is found in being Lovers of Self, Unholy, unappeasable and without self-control .. "
so by this Paul said to the Romans 8:7-8 ESV ..
- For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot. Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
May The Spirit of the Lord gives You Clarity on your situations, circumtances or issues you have right now.
Jesus Loves You. .

I guess your understanding of Levi's IT is different from mine. When Levi asked "What does it all matter" I presumed he asked after the meaning of life. I guess that's how Levi understands it: as some vague philosophical, theological term, that you can't really grasp or understand, and that has no real connection with your everday life. Ultimately the big dogmas mean nothing, unless they mean something to people. We shouldn't see God's existence apart from us, but as in a living relationship with us, through Jesus Christ in the community of the Holy Spirit. We matter to God, as beloved sons and daughters of Him, that's all that matters in this context. That doesn't mean He's is in any way dependant of us though (Acts 17: 24-28)
