In Jeremiah chapter 12, the prophet voices an often considered question: “Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why do all who are treacherous thrive?” A story like this raises that question again for me. ashleymadison.com is a dating site for married people seeking to have an adulterous relationship. They are actively promoting and profiting from the breakup of the family. The fact that they can offer $25 million for naming rights to a football stadium while organizations like FamilyLife who are seeking to give families help and hope are scrimping and saving to make an impact with less $$ than that as an annual budget is maddening.
We know that our God is a God of justice and there will be a high price for those who cause others to stumble. I pray for those who are tearing apart families like the folks at ashleymadison.com that they will come to understand God’s love for them, repent and submit to Christ’s lordship in their lives, but in the meantime let me challenge you consider which side of the battle for the family are you investing in? We invite you to join with us in our battle to see Every Home a Godly Home!
