We'll I guess we've all heard the news about 16 year old Jamie Lynn Spears and that she's pregnant. If you're a child of God are you going to pray for her and her family or are you going to condemn her? I know far too many Christians who will condemn her right out of the gate. So to those Christians I ask you to read the book of Obadiah. The Edomites, who were Esau's descendants, watched Israels people, who were descendants of Jacob, go through some perilous times and didn't lift a finger to help them. They even took glory in there troubles. The best line in the book of Obadiah is in verse 11 "
you were like one of them". I can hear some of you now "We'll I'm glad my families not like that", or "I know that could never happen to my little girl". That's comparing yourselves to other people, putting yourself on a pedestal and that
makes you like one of them. We are to compare ourselves and our lives to Christ. I ask you to pray for this girl and her family as well as for the child she's carrying. I'm not condoning what she's done, but Jesus said it best, "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone".
