Today, on my way home from work I got to catch up with a dear friend of mine. She is someone who I admiral, who I love, and who's heart for The Lord is on fire. I am so blessed she is in my life. Just as I have been with the blogging world lately, I have also been with my friends...a little absent. But that is something I am well aware of and I am working on getting better with keeping up with blogging as well as keeping up with my relationships with friends and family. So after not talking with this dear friend for quite some time...it was so refreshing to catch up with her.
As we were talking, I asked her how she was doing. Her response was everything is fine, I just have a heavy heart. She continued to tell me that a friend of ours told about this child who was born in a brothel in India. This child, now 1, is being tortured. From the day she was born, she was kept in a cardboard box. No one was allowed to touch her, hold her, love her, kiss her, hug her...no human contact. When the baby cried, she would be beaten. My friend goes on to say that there is a lady who is doing her best to rescue this little helpless, innocent, beautiful baby. Unfortunately, rescuing anyone from human trafficking is not easy.
I can not help but be in the same place as my friend right now. Broken. I can not speak for my friend but more emotions come over me. Anger. Confused. Sad. Revenge. Hopeless. Helpless. While I do believe that these feelings are human, I know that these feelings will get me nowhere. These feelings are what the devil want from us. He wants us to be confused. He wants us to feel helpless. With these feelings, he believes he has won. Friends, I can assure you the devil has not won. Jesus has already won that war a long time ago. There is hope in knowing that God is here. God is aware. God is fighting for these innocent victims. God is with them. But God also needs us. As His people, we need to fall on our knees and cry out to Him with this issue. We need to pray fervently for this evil that has taken away so many people's innocents. We need to take action and fight for the ones who have no voice. We need to continue to have broken hearts. This little baby who has been given the nickname of Sweetie, needs so much prayer. She needs to know that there is a God out there who loves her beyond her comprehension. As His people, we need to be His love for her. I wish I could hold her, rock her, kiss her, love her, tell her how much I love her, tell her she is worth something, feed her, cloth her. All the necessities that any baby should have and needs.
For those who read this blog, I do ask that you join in on praying for this precious baby, Sweetie. Prayer is so powerful. Sweetie needs a voice. Please be that voice for her.
If you would like more information on this please let me know. I will be glad to forward an email on the specific details of this situation of how they are trying to rescue her.
