Deception And Darkness

So, inspiration comes at the weirdest of times.
Blossom
There are so many trafficking survivors out there that have severe depression and anxiety. If we shows these girls and boys the love of Christ, we can see them “blossom.”

A Story From the Heart
NOTE: Alterations have been made to protect the person’s identity and whereabouts.
This is a story of a little girl (we will call her “P” to protect her identity) told by her adopted mother on her encounters with sex-trafficking.
What’s On My Mind
I feel it is necessary to show images of what marks people have gotten from being trafficked. (I found all these on google so if you want to see more, be careful what you search and know once you see something, you can’t “unsee” it.)
10 Ways To Fight
TwirlingintheRain asked, “What are some things young people can do to help fight this crime?” Well, I did a little research (does GMM internet search boopdidityboopboopboop) and came across 10 ways to help “fight this crime.”
