Slippery Slope

I know I usually have cutesy pictures of my beautiful grandchildren, and my one remaining wild child, but I am so saddened by what seems to be an escalation of our walking away from the things we know to be good and true. It becomes confusing unless we keep our eyes on the creator of our lives and world as to what is right and what is wrong. How mean of us to want to deny people who love each other the status of marriage. It was getting very cloudy for me. There is no sin in being kind and loving and having good relationships, but where it gets murky is when we chose to go outside of God's design in our sexual relationships. We can see people together who treat each other well and say that can't be wrong, but we all know very kind people who have also chosen to have relations outside of marriage or who do things behind closed doors that are not so kind. I believe that God created and ordained marriage. He did it to be a daily visible picture of Christ and the church. Gay marriage can not reflect that, when God Himself has ordained that marriage is between one man and one woman. We have seen slowly, but surely gay relationships are becoming very mainstreamed in our media, our lives, our conversations. It is very uncomfortable to say that we don't approve of someone else's choices and lifestyle, but it has become necessary. Recently two shows on tv that I have to admit I love have entered into there storyline gay relationships. You say what's new. To me what was new was the very sexualized scenarios. Earlier in one of the shows two coworkers got together (also not God's thing), but I can't remember them showing big love scenes between them. I think this is enticing the senses, making this common place, and provoking us to blur the lines. Unfortunately I don't think this was a one episode thing it looks like it will continue to be a storyline, so I feel that I don't want to support this kind of "entertainment." We need to be careful of how we listen to the news. I remember being in Wichita during the big pro life rally's in front of abortion clinics and would go home at night to see something totally different on tv. We are told now that this is a right, but in my mind rights are what God gives us, not the workings of men's minds.
