For many years, Augustine struggled with his sexuality. He felt a slave of his passions. When he got to know Jesus, he discovered that through a firm decision he could change his life. You can do the same. 

Do not despair when you fall along the way: just get up and continue in the right direction. Augustine found that his pure love for Jesus gave him a much more profound satisfaction than anything he had experienced before. You can ask him to pray for you too.
