Human Trafficking Awareness Day!!!

Get the word out! Today is Human Trafficking Awareness Day, and we can all DO something to help!

Just to make you more aware, I’m going to post links to several anti-trafficking organizations’ websites so you can check out more about what’s being done across the country to combat sex trafficking/human trafficking/slavery/injustice around the world.

This video just broke my heart and I had to share it again with all of you. It’s why organizations like Compassion International and Mission of Mercy are extremely important–because they help bring kids out of poverty, help them go to school, and give them a chance at life! Help save a child’s life today and rescue one out from under the danger of being trafficked!

Pieces of my heart

I haven’t traveled across all of the world yet…but there are pieces of my heart in countries and places I haven’t been because of my sponsored children.

  • Because of Tin, there’s a piece of my heart in Thailand.
  • Because of Mekdelawit, there’s a piece of my heart in Ethiopia.
  • Because of Bheki, there’s a piece of my heart in Swaziland.

These are beautiful children. They deserve to know God’s great love for them. They deserve to be nourished and clothed, to have shoes and clean drinking water. They deserve to go to school, to read and write, and to learn about Jesus.

I am so grateful for Compassion and Mission of Mercy, that they are active in these countries, caring for these wonderful children and their families, and making an impact in their communities.

The reality is, there are so many kids who are still awaiting sponsorship. And so many more who don’t get the opportunity to be sponsored. They might not even have a home, or a mom & a dad, or a family, or food and clothes and clean water. They are homeless, hopeless, crying out for love.

But in the midst of it all…in the midst of the suffering and pain and heartbreak…God is there. He is with them. That is His name, after all! Emmanuel, God with us!

Thank you, Lord, for seeing each of us where we’re at right now. Thank you that regardless of our circumstances, regardless of what we’ve done…You still say, “Come.”

Thank you for taking care of us. I don’t understand it all. My heart cries, “But, LORD, why?” so often. But still, I thank you for being with us. You are GOD. You are GOOD. And You are on the MOVE.

Would you consider sponsoring a child today? I can promise you that it will change their life and yours, as well. Simply click on the links above for more details.

Also, this little girl from Honduras needs a sponsor. Her name is Maykelin, she is PRECIOUS, and our goal is to have her sponsored by Aug 31. Find out all about her here. If you’d like to sponsor her, contact me and I’ll get you in touch with the right people!
