Ministering His HOPE in Orlando

Normally I do the typing for Bear Witness Cayman as he tells the story but this time we decided to do things a little different. Cayman decided this time I would just tell what happened as he says he likes sharing the funny stories but ones like this make things a little harder for him to talk about.

One of the days we went out to minister to the homeless in Orlando we went to a park in the downtown area. We talked to many different people and we were saddened by what we saw however one of the people that affected us the most was a young lady being sold for prostitution. When we first walked up to her she appeared to be homeless and on drugs. However after we explained to her what we do she asked for a Bible and a bracelet. She thanked us for both the Bible and the bracelets. While we were talking to her Brandon and I both noticed a man staring at us talking to her the whole time, we realized that it was her pimp. We were thankful that he didn't get involved in our conversation even though he was in earshot of it. We shortened our visit with her after that and walked away to talk to other homeless people in the area. When we looked back her way just a few minutes later we watched as her pimp made a deal with a man for her body. Sad to say not only was it her body that he was getting but I am also sure it was part of her very soul. She had explained to us that she knew Jesus but this was a bad time in her life but she needed his hope. We couldn't help but pray that once she was alone that she opened her Bible which we felt she was genuinely thankful for.

True story!

Everyone needs the hope that can only be found in Jesus! Who are you sharing His hope with?
