I don’t know exactly all that happened last Tuesday night at the Refuge for Women launch but I know it was important. Stories with emotion are still being told about the event. I think God showed up in a powerful way and touched the hearts of all that were in attendance.
I will never forget the comments of one of the girls out of the industry when she couldn’t believe that 450 people would show up for strippers. She commented that “we are the lowest of the lowest in society.” How sad! The feelings of value were so low that she didn’t feel worthy to have people care to that degree. It especially amazed her when everyone applauded for those in attendance who had been stung by this industry. It was an applause that said you matter and we are here for you.
I told the women it was their cries to God for help that has us here tonight. He heard their cries and activated the Body of Christ to be the solution. We serve an amazing God that is in the business of restoring value to those who have had it stripped away. God is Good! He is the God who restores what the enemy attempted to steal.
