Anxiety

I'm a believer in Jesus Messiah of Nazareth, the Son of the Most High God.
In common terms, I'm a christian man, although I don't really know what the word means as so many "christians" (members of christian churches) are not believers...

Anyhoo, I've been plenty anxious lately because of the immorality and general views on sex and sexuality in the media.
Its not that I really care what other people do - I don't need to judge anyone - but the problem is that it touches me very quickly.
Infidelity, divorce, remarriage, etc. cause me to cry "isn't anything sacred anymore?!"

Homosexuality, pornography and the continuous advertising of those phenomena as normal and good, cause me to cry "why does everybody have to accept someone else's perversions of what has SO FAR been normal??!"

And now, with the debate heating up and all kinds of lusts running wild, why isn't anyone noticing that there is no end to this?! Relaxing the rules and allowing "just one more thing" is NEVER going to fix the emptiness inside people. Instead, it will just make the world more and more insecure and hard, as those satisfying their wicked desires will exploit everybody else.

The rejected spouse is the victim of divorce.
The confused teen is the victim of today's heated debate about homosexuality's "normality"
The whole society is the victim of a mentality of selfish lust and hedonism. The individual: child, teen, adult, father, mother are all under threat from a general view that "its just normal, live with it"

If Jesus reigned in this world, it would be so different.
