People Can Change
Because of media bias, you won't hear this story on ABC News, nor on CNN's Larry King Live. So this story was obtained from WorldNetDaily.com instead. It's about Michael Glatze, who is a prominent gay activist & editor of Young Gay America magazine. He lived the homosexual lifestyle at age 16. But at age 30, he found God, or rather, God found him. He said his conversion was the most liberating experience in his entire life. He further stated that he had been leading a movement of sin & corruption, that homosexuality prevented him from finding his true self, that homosexuality is lust & pornography wrapped into one, and that it destroys young minds. So he abandoned his homosexual lifestyle. Now that he has a personal relationship with God, he was no longer confused, afraid, nor upset. So this story is proof that there is hope for people to change.

Want to Change the World? Then Change Yourself.
I work in a very diverse office. People there came from countries in Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, & the Middle East. They all lament the corruption that exists in their home countries. This brings to mind a story which my aunt told me about my uncle, who also lived in another country where corruption is common. He was an officer in the military. One day, he took a wrong turn and was cited by a cop for some traffic violation. Usually, when the offender is a military officer, the cop would let you go. If you were not an officer, then you get a ticket. When the cop checked my uncle's ID and discovered he was an army officer, he tried to let my uncle go without a citation. But my uncle was a man with integrity. He told the cop "I broke a traffic rule, so give me the ticket and I'll pay the fine." Imagine what would happen if each individual changed his/her behavior & acted with honesty and integrity. Want to change the world? Then start with yourself.
