200 | 365 Doing Good

Day200.jpgOn Sunday we heard first hand about incredible work of Rahab ministries in Thailand, and got to support them through the pink pigs. In Thailand young women, really young women are sold by their families to prostitution, often under false circumstances and with the lure of a better life, but sold nonetheless.
 
I can’t imagine ever getting so desperate, that I would even remotely consider selling my daughter. It would never happen!
 
Imagine the outcry, the laws I would break and the news coverage.
 
It would shock our nation.
 
I’m reminded that my world is not the world. Every day young women are sold. There is no outcry, no laws broken, no news coverage.
 
My world, is not the world.
