Today on a college campus my friend JP and i took a walk across the lawn. We met a girl and asked her how her day had been. She said "bad." Right away our hearts broke for her and we listened to her pour out her heart. We prayed with her and encouraged her, and invited her to join us tonight at the tent meeting instead of going to the strip club, which was what she thought was her only answer to the trouble she was in. She had no hope.
Tonight at the tent meeting she found hope in Jesus and a whole pile of new friends. I'm so thankful for the opportunity to encounter her life, and see it radically changed. Instead of pain tonight she found healing. Instead of being seen as a piece of meat, she was seen as the precious jewel that God had chosen.
I'm at a loss for any more words...just that God is so good.
