PRAYERS NEEDED

Yesterday I was reading an article in the Columbus news online about a home being built in the Columbus area for girls who have been rescued from sex trafficking and how Ohio has finally become one of 42 states to make sex trafficking a felony.  Seriously, I cannot understand how it hasn't been a felony before.  My heart began to break even more as I read the article.  This is one of the most haneous acts of violence.

Recently God has opened up the opportunity for me to become a mentor at The Daughter Project.  http://thedaughterproject.org/  Please won't you consider being a prayer partner for me and donating online to help these girls in their recovery.  You see, so many people out there do not know the love of Jesus.  So many peole are hurting and broken.  I believe that all of us fit in to those categories, some have just faced harder life situations.  But the love of Jesus is stronger than anything, stronger even than death.  Death could not even hold him down.  This is who is on our side, this is who loves us and this is who came to redeem and set us free from the bondages that Satan has put people under.  "He came that we would have life, and have it abundantly."

I know that it will be tough to be a mentor in this area.  I know that I will/do have times when I feel inadequate, weak and wonder if I will be able to really do this.  God will be there with me.  I know that I will need your prayers to see me through.  To give me the words of Christ to speak and for peace in my heart as I minister in tough situations.



As I closed my eyes to listen to this song I could not help but think about my own daughters.  I think about how much they are loved, by me as a mom and by the people in their life.  That is so precious to me, they are so precious to me.  Then I thought about what it would be like to be a young girl who has be "taken" and forced into sex trafficking.  I think about these young girls sitting in a corner in a little room, curled up in a corner, scared and crying, feeling like nobody loves her and even not even knowing about love at all.  Then I hear the end of this song when the man hears a voice deep inside speaking love into him.  That is what I pray for these girls.  That they would hear God speak to them with a love they have never known.  PLEASE PRAY FOR THEM!
