He will lead them to springs of living water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Revelation 7:17
Recently, I was blessed with the opportunity to visit a very special place. It is a new home for girls that is almost ready to open. The words beautiful, peaceful, restful, restoring, comforting, tranquil and safe immediately came to mind as I entered the door. In a few weeks, in a setting that most of us would expect on a church retreat, God's chosen servants will minister 24/7 to those who surely fit into the categories of "forgotten," "invisible," "the least of these."
In few weeks, this home will become the place of transformation for young girls ages 12 - 17. They will come there, often in the middle of the night, escaping the horrors of human trafficking. They have endured the unimaginable atrocities of the commercial sex trade and have somehow survived. Most are shells of what they were or could be. They have pulled as far from the pain as they can and it will literally take an act of God to reach them. They have no more tears to wipe. They have survived by building walls.
Please pray for the girls who will be brought to Living Water for Girls. Pray for the therapists, nurses, teachers, counselors and other staff who will help them rebuild their lives. Pray for the Board of Directors and for the Founder who has tirelessly followed God's direction in establishing this place. Pray that each girl will hear the healing Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Pray that God will show you how you can become involved. Then do what He says.
