I am just going to jump right into this post and tell you that I am a little bit at a loss in figuring out what to do next in this fight against human trafficking. I want to do something that has a direct impact. Sure I can send in a monthly check to RAPHA HOUSE, sponsor a child, and keep up with what their doing so I can tell others, but I want to do something where I see an instant result. I guess I just want to march right into a ring and bust it! Well, I know very well that is NOT how this works. I am too impatient, and this dragon seems too big and dangerous. Thinking about these children being brainwashed, physically abused, and mentally tormented is more than I can bare. It makes me go a little mad, but I must keep my wits about me and figure out where God wants me next. After all, being a Freedom Fighter takes on many forms.
I don't even have anything to blog about consistently, so writing isn't working for me.
WAIT! Maybe, this is it....................................................................
It is funny that after all of these years in studying scripture, I often forget how to apply what I have learned!!! SILLY, SILLY, SINFUL ME!!! Somewhere in this brain, I was reminded that there is a way for me and YOU to directly impact the fight. PRAYER! I need to be asking you to pray with me. Not for just a second right now or for you to put in your prayer book to do later but in a consistent and committed way. I think we should pray for specific places and faces at specific times each day. It could be for the girls who are at risk of being sold, the brave people who do the rescuing, the children who are currently in the midst of their utter hell, the rescued girls at a certain place, the governments, the johns, the pimps, those precious folks who help heal children once they are rescued and those who fight for justice for them. Can you do this with me? WILL you do this with me? You can go to the RAPHA HOUSE website and find a face to pray for or do your own search for a place, face, group, or mission. There are so many!
When should we do it each day? Hmmmmm...............How about 9 AM and NOON (central time)? Yes, that is easy to remember. I will set my alarm on my phone now. ARE YOU IN? Let's do this and watch God move mountains. I like remembering that God has His plans all set and ready to roll, but He wants us to seek Him before he expedites His mission. So, seek Him we shall! If you are going to join me in this, let me know!!! THANK YOU!
One last thing, on the link below you can sign a petition asking our national leaders and President to stand up for Freedom and fight. This is being done by the International Justice Mission.
Petition for FREEDOM
WOW! I started this blog like a lost goose and ended with an exciting plan! Maybe I should blog more! Maybe about the laundry and bills?
