I decided to go ahead and start the one dress project yesterday and as I was going through my drawers to decide what to wear with my dress, I started thinking, "Man... I've really given up a lot of choice and freedom by doing this. There are so many clothes in here that I won't be able to wear for a while."
Then it hit me. I am so free. I have the ability to choose. These women and girls have no freedom. If they're provided with any clothing, I'm sure it isn't much. And yet, I feel bad for myself because there are "so many clothes" that I'll have to leave in my drawers for a month and a half? It's only been two days and the Lord has already been teaching me so much, showing me so many things.
Please, join me in praying for these girls. Pray that they see His beautiful light, knowing that even if their physical, earthly surroundings are dark and dreary the Lord's light never goes out and never flickers. His love is constant, unending and unconditional. And pray for those who are trafficking them. Pray that their hearts become broken, so broken. That they are able to be freed from their bondage in sin and that their blindness may be taken away. Pray.
I've taken a couple pictures, so here they are!
