Today in the United States it has become increasingly normal and even celebrated to be gay, lesbian, or transsexual. It is near impossible to go on social media without hearing something about the LGBT "community".

As a Christian, I have always been hesitant about giving an opinion about the rise in our society's norms. It has been increasingly more difficult to say same sex relations is a sin, especially with the media encouraging it so much. However, whether it is celebrated or fought against, whether it's popular or not- it is a sin.

There. I said it. Same sex marriage/ relations is a sin against God. I am sorry if I offended you, but it's the truth. We live in this world where sinful behaviors are encouraged and promoted. Here's a news flash: just because it's popular doesn't mean it's acceptable.

In elementary school, I remember seeing a picture of a man holding a rainbow flag. It caught my attention because, let's face it, rainbows are awesome. But then I realized the rainbow had become a symbol for the LGBT's.

Rainbows are supposed to be a sign of God's faithfulness. A sign of His love for us and the protection of the world from a flood. But the rainbow has been vandalized. It is now a symbol of how fun and normal sin is.

How sad it is that such a beautiful and innocent thing like a rainbow has become a representative for such a messed up sin.

As a Christian, I am disgusted. As a millennial I am embarrassed. I'm embarrassed that my generation would be the forerunners in endorsing same sex relations, instead of being the ones that spark a revival of holy living.

Some may say, "there's nothing you can do, because these are the times we live in". Allow me to object. I am not on this planet to sit around quietly and let the world fall into sin. I'm gonna make a difference. I'm going to live a godly life, even if people mock me, call me names, and criticize my choice. Even if it isn't the popular way, I CHOOSE JESUS.
