Back to School!!

Wow, it has been crazy to be back to college after spending five days at a porn convention. I have now made it through a week of school and adjusted to my new schedule. The lord has really answered prayers in many areas . Not only on the trip but since i have been back my mind has been clear of the images I was surrounded by. I have kept in contact with two men that I met on the convention floor, one is David who emailed me on this past Thursday and Roddy a man from China, who emailed me about the bible and asked me some questions , which was super encouraging to know that they two people I gave emails to, responded within a week!! Praise God!! He is doing amazing work, and sure it may be weeks, months or years until I see results but it doesn’t matter because God is at work and that gives me hope! I will continue to pray for the people who I encountered on this trip and look into interning this summer with xxxchurch if the lord is calling me to this ministry. I was also able to connect with two women from Arizona so I may get involved with the sex trafficking that is happening there. I will continue to pray and ask God to lead me down his perfect path as I trust him with every step. Thanks so much and I will continue to write on this blog, with stories about the trip and work that the lord is doing in my life!

I am here in Vegas!!.. a little nervous to see what may happens in the next couple days but more excited because I know the power of the Holy Spirit, and he is alive and working.

Day one--As I stepped into the convention center to go set up our booth I realized that I was being exposed to more nude women and sexual objects that I could ever imagine in one place and one time. Not only were these 10foot posters available to see, I knew these women would be walking around in the days to come. They are real girls, real women who have a story, and the lord has a purpose for their life, I know this is not where he wants them to be. I am not coming to condemn, judge or even preach to them.. I am here to listen and offer my service with the love of Christ. God has a story for each of them. He wants these women to know they are loved unconditionally and I have faith that through prayer and God leading conversation the holy spirit will speak to the inmost part of these ladies and touch their soft and hurting hearts. Please pray that I have to strength and courage to treat each person as a sister a friend, and a daughter of the King, for they are deserving of Gods grace and love. To not judge or stare but rather pray and serve, to be overflowing with Gods love that I am shining in this dark place. May the words be seasoned with salt, drawing the conversation to the gospel and love of Christ Jesus, making them eager to know more in his name--- Thank you so much for your prayers- I will be at the convention today from 1-6pm, and then in the strip club from 10-12pm—Pray for Gods path to be made straight so that our team can trust that the Lord is being glorified by each conversation and action we make! God Bless Each of you today!
