Taking a Stand

Tonight I realized the Teen moms out there get a VERY bad rep and someone needs to take a moment and stand up on their behalf.

YES! I agree completely that everything is sin that was done to come to the point of becoming pregnant outside of marriage as a single teen mom. However, who are you to judge her?

Is God not the ultimate Judge of all of us? You will be judged just as much as she will be when the day comes. God says that NO sin is greater than another. That means if you have cheated on a test, if you are married and looked at another man/woman in a way that was not faithful to your husband, or if you took something without asking aka stealing, your sin is just as great as sex before marriage.

When the woman that was caught in the MIDDLE of adultery was brought naked in front of the whole town to Jesus' feet and the men said "Jesus, the law commands us to stone this woman." Jesus replies "May the man who has no sin himself cast the first stone" and slowly everyone left. No one is perfect, everyone makes mistakes. And that day I believe after Jesus looked at her and said "Go and sin no more" that she did JUST that, and repented with all that she had in her! For Jesus was the sinless one and he had THAT much Mercy on her!! I would be so thankful I would be at his feet crying! Let me tell you something...HE HAS DONE THAT! Because I have repented of my sin and given my ENTIRE situation to him, he has set me free and let my situation be a help to MANY others!!!

I am able to talk with girls who have found themselves in the same situation I was in. A prophecy was made over my church that because I chose life and not death (Abortion) there would be life in the church (many women were having trouble conceiving). 14 people became pregnant in my church! Some of them were told that they would never be able to conceive! God can take ANY situation and turn it around for the better if you let him! and I let him! And he is blessing me and my son and our life together because of that!

The next time you see a teen mom, don't immediately judge her and label her a slut in your mind. She may not be the person you are stereotyping her to be. Have Mercy on her. forgive her for God has forgiven her. GOd has us here on the Earth to praise HIM and to tell people about HIM. Are you showing God's glory by being quick to judge? Especially is you are being quick to judge and stereotyping them all together?
Let God do his job and be the Ultimate Judge. But also let him do what he does best- Love. Follow his lead and Love those who are hurting. embrace them with open arms. Take it from someone who is there...that's all she wants. Someone to say "You are loved" "You will be okay" "Life is not over" "This is a new beginning" "God will bless you with great plans for you and your baby's life, IF you let him"

Many of these girls are simply hurting. Love them.
For God Loves them.
