Stand in the Gap


I attended a function this past weekend regarding Human Trafficking. It was quite an eye-opening experience and I appreciate the invite. It was held at a church and the two women who spoke were obviously very passionate about their mission to put a dent in or eliminate the trafficking of more than 27 million human beings. Do a little research. It's not just third world countries, or 'somewhere else'. It is right here!


One of the things the speaker kept saying, whether it connected with the effort at hand, or on a multitude of other levels, was to "Stand in the Gap".

It made a real impact on me.

 

Stand in the Gap:

Be there to assist

Lend a hand

Be available

Be vigilant

Help

Be a voice

 

It doesn't matter if it's Human Trafficking, a children's hospital, or spreading the Good Word.

Stand in the Gap

 

Be the buoy.

Be the life preserver.

Be the difference in someone's life.
