During my first couple times ministering to the prostitutes, I was sort of numb. Yea it was sad, but I left and it was all okay again. Why should the next time be any different? I don’t know but it was! The numbness left and I felt my heart break for these girls. I listened to a woman who had worked at a bar for 12 years and desperately wanted out. I watched many women walk in and out of the hotel rooms behind the bars. I witnessed a teary eyed girl pushing away her drunk “client” as he started getting physical with her. We walked outside to the next bar but I didn’t go in. It was all just too overwhelming. Thinking how this is their life and that they are physically or emotionally trapped in those bars just broke my heart. Then it was time to leave… my least favorite part actually. I hate leaving those women behind in the bars! So as my team piled into our sketchy van, God gave me a dream and a prayer… To see these women walk out of that lifestyle and into His love. My Prayer is that one day before we leave, that teary eye woman is able to walk out of that bar WITH us. I know that God can break these chains! He is able to do FAR MORE ABUDANTLY than all we ASK or THINK. So I ask that you all join me in my prayer for these women!
