I was talking with my mother the other day and she started telling me about something she saw on TV about how college kids were spending their spring break. She said it was disgusting. She said that one girl had gotten drunk and a whole bunch of guys were having sex with her on the beach. She was going into one of her rants and I had to get off of the phone.

I don’t need to hear that. My children have not done that and I do not need to hear my mother go on and on about how sinful the young kids are today. I am sick of people putting down the teenagers today and acting like the old people are saints. The old people are the ones responsible for the moral decay because they did nothing to stop it.

Beyond that though I started talking to God about that poor girl who was being violated on the beach. How humiliating that must have been for her. I started praying for her. Who knows if she got an STD or became pregnant?
It really bothered me that she had been treated that way. How come no one intervened? Were people thinking she deserved it because she got drunk? Had she been asking for it?

It still bothers me and I am still praying for her. When people judge and condemn others because of their sins it is wasting words and time. What God wants us to do is to pray for them and intervene if possible. It is amazing that this was broadcast on television and no one did anything for her. I find that in itself disgusting.
