Standing In The Gap

     Have you ever heard someone talking, and they just keep talking about how dumb or ugly or wrong they are?  Often time this person is a girl, typically between the ages of 18-22.  I just happen to live with 22 girls between the ages of 18-22.  
 

     These girls are still finding themselves and finding out who they are in Christ.  So often they have been told that they are insignificant, unworthy, and unwanted.  This is NOT who Jesus says they are.  Jesus says they are worthy because they are His.  Jesus says they are needed to be His hands and feet to bring His Kingdom.  Jesus says they are significant because he knew every hair on their heads before they were even born.
 

     So, while these amazing women figure out who they are, I will stand in the gap.  I will continue to speak life over them.  I will push them and stretch them.  I will pursue them.  But most of all I will love them well.
