Walking through the streets of a country where it is illegal to share your faith. So what do you do? What do you do when your passion for sharing Jesus is not allowed because the government doesn’t want people to be exposed to it? God said, just pray and trust me.
I don’t know your name. I don’t know if you were born in this city, if you are married, or have kids. I don’t know your age, if you went to college or where you work. I don’t know anything about you, and that is hard for me. As we walked side by side, not saying a word to each other I prayed for you.
I prayed that you would feel the love Jesus has for you in a deep and intimate way. I prayed that even in this shame/honor culture that you would know just how beautiful you are and how much your Heavenly Father delights in your beauty. I asked God, that you would know that you are a daughter in his eyes. For you to know that He sees you, He loves you, He admires who you are. You don’t have to feel shame, you don’t have to hide who you are. You are loved so passionately. He longs to give you every piece of his heart, and for you to be confident that you are priceless to Him. I prayed that you would see Jesus fighting for you, fighting for your heart to be 100% His and that you would cultivate a passionate heart for worship to Him. I prayed that you would see past religious barriers and be free to be who God made you to be! I prayed that in the “weak” moments in your life that you would cry out to God, that you would see him being your strength and only HE can fill every void in your heart. God, please heal every wound, every scar, every broken place, all rejection and all the lies. Let her see just how loved, cherished, adored, radiant, pure, good, fierce and strong she is in you! Let her see that her life does have purpose, that you are constant, unchanging, irreplaceable, that you never leave and you are always with her. Let her see you moving in her life, that you are her light and the lover of her soul. I love you Lord, I give her to you.
I prayed this prayer for this woman, but I pray the same for you. I may not know your name or anything about you. But I do know this, God loves you deeply and passionately. He hasn’t given up on you, your past doesn’t hinder you from His love, and He is always with you even when you don’t hear or see him. He will never stop fighting for you.
You are enough, you aren’t too much and You are exquisite in His eyes. Seek Him and you will find Him. Let Him have your whole heart, you can trust Him with it. Don’t let fear get in the way of the beautiful love story that God created for YOU to have with HIM.
You are worthy of Love and HE longs for you to have the love that your heart is longing for!!
Love, Love, Love
