This past week I have been working on Hope Rising projects, graduate school applications, and job searching. I spoke recently with a friend who self-initiated a similar revamp of his circumstances. He shared that it is easier to jump into an entirely new set of circumstances that are generally uncomfortable than to try to be slightly uncomfortable with one new change at a time. It's just too easy to return to comfort when you are a little bit uncomfortable with a new change. This was certainly the case for me this past August, and despite the discomfort of not having a scheduled plan or income, I am incredibly happy to be focusing on abolitionism.
Much of today has been spent sitting in my new home office (thanks, Brother) looking through material about human trafficking. Despite the tragic reality of this brutal industry, at the end of today I am reminded that rescue is possible. Prevention is possible. Even healing is possible. Here is a brief montage from "The End of Slavery" by the International Justice Mission that summarizes both the urgent need and the hope.
