I moved to Houston twenty-two years ago and I love being in the place where God wants me to be, but I could not be more ashamed of our city. I just read an article about the fact that the largest abortion clinic in our nation is being opened here (you can read the article by clicking on this link: http://cnsnews.com/news/article/59334. It refers to the clinic as an “Abortion Super Center”. It says,” Planned Parenthood is renovating a former bank, turning it into a 78,000 square foot facility that will include a surgicial wing equipped to provide late-term abortions.” What a shame! Houston should be called the new sin city. Just last month Houston elected the first lesbian (Annise Parker) to hold the office of mayor in a major U.S. city. Before that, Elena Marsh, the chairwoman for Planned Parenthood of America, held the position of Health and Environmental Policy for the mayor’s office. Houston, we have a problem! Add to this the fact that the most popular false teacher in America is located in Houston and I would say we have a big problem! Joel Osteen prayed at the inauguration of Parker and he actually thanked God for putting her in that postion and for giving her “supernatural wisdom”. That’s as crazy as it gets. Of course this is the same man who refuses to use the word sin in reference to homosexuality. To think that anyone calling themself a Christian would call this man their pastor amazes me. Houston, we have a problem! As Christians we need to pray for our city, do all we can to win folks to Christ, and vote for godly leaders. That is the only solution to our problem.
