Pray for San Francisco

Yes, you read that right. Pray for San Francisco.

Voters in San Francisco will be deciding on Proposition K - a measure tha forbids local authorities from investigating, arresting or prosecuting anyone for selling sex.

That's right - they are voting to decriminalize prostitution.

A news article points out, "The ballot question technically would not legalize prostitution since state law still prohibits it, but the measure would eliminate the power of local law enforcement officials to go after prostitutes."

They still could, as police officers are certified by the State, but they often are subject to career-threatening political pressure as well.

To their credit, at least according to the article, "much of the political establishment" is opposing Prop. K.

This is not an issue of being "sexually liberal" or "liberated." People who have an emotionally healthy upbringing do not sell their bodies. More often, these are the abused and/or the addicts. They need help, not to be told or encouraged that what they are doing is just an expression of their sexuality.

Isn't it sad that what the world says is liberation actually leads to bondage?

When I first read this, my first reaction was, "Typical San Francisco. Let 'em do whateve they want..." It was my wife who brought up that we should post this and encourage everyone to pray for San Francisco.

All those people are made by our Creator in His image. God loves them. Jesus Christ died for them.

Pray for San Francisco.
