I found an interesting article tonight : http://www.dldewey.com/columns/biblef05.htm
There are another sites which are good to read as well:

I think it is important to ask: "If Jesus is there in front of you, what would Jesus do?"
The only way to answer is by reading bible and learn more about Jesus. Unfortunately, Bible could be misinterpreted. I still have a lot of questions, but it is okay to have questions. Questioning yourself and your beliefs make you grow as a person. I suppose my core question is whether who I am as a lesbian is pleasing in the eyes of God. There is always that longing to be accepted by God. But the more I learn about Jesus and the more I pray I found that He loves me unconditionally. When you feel that you are not worthy on His eyes, He'll come and comforts you with His love. I felt this very strongly during my prayers. This is when I was liberated.
I have been lucky enough that I met religious support, a priest and nuns who can understand who I am. Who doesn't judge me, who doesn't scold me that it is a sin but give me the freedom to explore who I really am just like God gives us free will to choose our path. Yep, I have gone down that track. I met a priest who expects me to turn heterosexual to be holy in His eyes. I pray for him so that God teach him His Divine Love as he obviously doesn't know what he is doing. The important thing is to find the inner truth of ourselves. Because whoever we are, God loves us as His precious children. He really does care about you!
