Start digging trenches.
If someone were to consider getting invovled in this issue of:
fighting injustice
speaking up for the oppressed
caring for the orphan
abolishing slavery
standing in the gap
taking a stand...
I'd like to come up with a list (an ongoing list) of ways we can be involved.
I've been hearing lately that although this issue seems TOO BIG, we can still make a difference. Small things matter. Telling one person about the issue of human trafficking matters.
I would love any of you who may come across this blog to post your own ideas- ways to make a difference in the lives (or even just ONE life) of the people suffering in slavery today.
This will hopefully serve as a resource. There are many great organizations out there fighting injustices and the numbers are growing (praise God!).
