As I turn on the TV I see a woman and her family being demoralized. The sickening part is the woman is receptive of the exploiting that is taking place. She is being cheered on as a hero and the family is standing before a crowd all for the glory of man.
The more I viewed the woman the more insulted I became, as she accepted the applause, an annoying feeling came over me. As a woman I felt she was representing me in the eyes of the media and I did not like the un-Christian image she was portraying about women and the family at all.
I bear in mind, Judas handing over Jesus to the authorities, as I view this family on TV. When Judas betrayed Jesus he said, “Rabbi, Rabbi! And kissed Him,” (Mark 14:45).
As this woman accepted the accolades, I felt she was selling the true image of a woman and family for the glory of man.
Judas sold out Jesus for 30 pieces of silver, the chief priest gave Judas little of nothing to take out Jesus (Matt26:15).
I am disappointed wondering, what this world has come to. Are you setting aside biblical teachings to benefit yourself? Do you feel scorn to see another push their agenda to destroy the teachings of our Lord?
How important is the image of the Father being glorified? Are you being misled? Do you applaud in cheer when the media is commending sin? Where is your heart really directed?
I believe God is looking to see if our hearts are fixed on someone’s image or His image. Maybe when you see this family on TV you say they look great. Perhaps you are saying its time for history to be made, but at what cost. Is it worth demining Gods principles to glorify man or demolish the family?
I pray for the people of the world today. I ask that you pray for discernment. Ask the Lord to help you focus on His teaching s to glorify Him. Pray that others might discern when someone is trying to sell a story to benefit man. God is consistent, He will not portray love and be hate, He will not portray life and be death, For He is God the same today and everyday.

Sister Harris,
I will indeed continue to pray for this country. I'm still in shock. As an Air Force brat, I've seen a variety of cultures do different things but last night, I literally had to just go to sleep off what I saw. I am in disbelief ... I don't even know what to ask God for but to have mercy on us as a nation and to please have complete control over our Government and their decisions, husbands and wives of all races and backgrounds, and please help me to do what he would have me to do so he and he alone will get the Glory.
I understand change is happening even right now. God's will be done!
T. H.
