This month we are working with Lighthouse in Action doing different things but mainly doing bar ministry. With the bar ministry we go to the local bars that are known for prostitution and hang out with the girl that work there and love on them.

The past couple of days I’ve had this feeling of inferiority, like I wasn’t good enough. I didn’t understand these feelings I was having, I could feel it but I knew that they weren’t my feelings. I know that I am not inferior, I know my worth, but I was still having these feelings.

Since being on the WR I’ve become more aware of what is, spiritually, going on around me. Today my team and I went on a pray walk around the bars and massage parlors where we will be doing ministry. During the early afternoon there are not a lot of people around, but there were a few ladyboys eating lunch and some martial arts fighters getting ready for a big fight tonight. After walking around and praying for a while I sat down with a few of the girls I was with to pray specifically for the fighters. While we were praying I kept getting inferiority in my head, then I realized that the inferiority I was feeling was what the men around me felt about themselves. The martial arts fighters, the ladyboys, and all the men that come to those bars for sex have feelings of inferiority, that they aren’t good enough.

There is no possible way to truly love the prostitutes without loving the pimps, and the customers too. Our coach said that you are ready to love a prostitute when you can love the pimp too.

God was letting me feel what the men feel, to understand why they come to these girls for sex. He’s breaking my heart for what breaks His. We can forget that a trafficker, pimps, and every single customer comes from a place of brokenness, hurt, and pain. They are the easy ones to hate, they are the easy ones to blame or to sweep under the rug and forget about, but God hasn’t forgotten about them. He loves them more than anything, just like how He loves me.

If God doesn’t hate them, then neither can I.
