The love of Jesus motivates me in my work to combat human trafficking, a reality I didn't fully grasp until witnessing it firsthand. Meeting a teenage boy whose mother justified trafficking her children as part of her upbringing was a shocking and eye-opening experience. It's heartbreaking to see such cycles, but seeing rescued children smile, find hope, and embrace God's love is truly rewarding.
One powerful testimony involved a boy who witnessed his father kill his mother and later forgave him after years of counseling and prayer. He even wrote a beautiful worship song thanking God for his love and protection.
