I spent a few minutes with the director of Positive Directions yesterday, talking about youth and AIDS. That is one of the groups that AIDS is soaring in, the youth of today. Could it be that they did not see the generation of men that we lost? Could it be that in their youth, they can not take the time to use a condom? I remember in the early 80’s standing at the doors of the bars and handing condoms to every single person that left. Some of the women thought we were crazy, but….you never know who will decide to play with whom. (A reality that most of my pastor friends in mainline denominations ignore)
I am not sure of the cause, but I know that my heart is heavy thinking of the young people I am beginning to spend time with, even if only through e-mail, rotting away with this hideous disease. I continue to pray for wisdom in decisions, and that extra minute during play time.
