How has the trip changed you? I bet you have experienced so many things to prepare you for life. You’ve seen the world, heard people’s stories, seen pain, experienced joys and sorrows. How do you think your life will be different? You’ll never be the same after this. These are some of the thoughts and questions that go through my mind as I think about friends and family back home.
The one thing I do know, is that letting God love me has changed me. Seeing myself the way God does. I am beautiful, I am pure, I am loved, forgiven and chosen. It has set me free and I’m a new person each day I walk in freedom. I may come back home with all these hopes, dreams and experiences but I’m nothing without the love of God. I’m nothing without Him loving me and filling me with love for him.
Everything I’ve experienced has been amazing, but nothing compares to walking in the love God has for me. He has prepared a place for me, and I’m going there everyday. It’s his presence and I can’t get enough of it. I can’t get enough of his love. I can’t stop sharing his love with people I meet. I’ve been on the other side of this life, and I was broken, hopeless and deceived. I know the abundant life God has for me is the real deal, and that’s what motivates me to go to the dark places. I’m not afraid to speak truth to desperate people and be completely dependent on God to give me strength.
His perfect love casts out fear, and makes me complete. Another man, career or friendship has nothing on His love and I’m learning that the more I let him love me, the more I become content. I can be in 105 degree heat, 100 % humidity and its all worth it because Jesus is loving me. I am being changed everyday and get to make a difference in people’s lives. Broken people are being restored, captives are being set free, healing is happening and orphans are being loved.
I know there is anointing on my life to bring hope to the bars. It’s awesome because I feel so comfortable ministering there that I feel like I was made for it. I’m not surprised by what I see, but I’m burdened to do something and I get to make a difference every night. God’s love satisfies even the most broken and desperate of hearts. I am His beloved, and so are the women that I get to meet and love. I don’t just say it, I believe it and live it and so will they.
