Do you think people are inspired by God now or was that reserved only for those so long ago?

I don't think Jesus ever said anything about homosexuality.

You have inspired me
Kinda of the opposite of you, I function better with organization. I am lost because of the clutter in my house. I am usually a neat freak but I have really let things go recently. I dread the holidays this year and just do nothing instead of doing a little here and there. My clutter has gotten pretty bad (for me) and it is to the point where I just dread doing it but I KNOW I would feel so much better if I just dug in and got it done. Remember your motivation, your daughter's wedding! That is a great thing! You will be so much happier knowing it is nice and clutter free.

If you need to cheer up or be inspired (sm)

Listen to this song! I don't really care for the video but I love the song and the words!! Really beautiful! Makes you wanna jump up and spin around your house :-)

I believe people are still inspired.... sm
by God today because I have seen the evidence in individual lives. I also believe there are people who THINK they are inspired by God but are really using God's name to perpetuate their own agenda.

I don't remember Jesus speaking to the subject of homosexuality specifically, but he did warn sternly about adding to or taking away anything from God's word, and God's word does speak specifically to homosexuality. If you truly believe in Jesus and believe in God, then you must believe that his word is true.
