The trailer looked so trashed that I rechecked the address.
Yes, this was the right place! Oh my, was the place even safe for an adult, let alone a 6-month- old baby?
A man was outside on the steps smoking. I said, “Is ‘T’ here?” “Yeah, you that lady who helps her about the kid? Maybe you can get that f____ing brat to stop bawlin.” My worry went up another notch.
‘T’ came out with the baby. Under her careful makeup I could see an ugly bruise on her cheekbone. Worry for her and her baby went up to its top notch.
‘T’, tell me what is going on here. . .
A story about it being a drug crash pad, too many people, no food, and physical and emotional abuse came tumbling out. I was so glad she trusted me enough to tell me the truth.
We sat in my car while I made some calls. Eventually we found a safe house situation that would take them both. We moved them in that very afternoon. Thank you Lord, for your provision!
This is what being Jesus in a young mom’s life looks like and I love doing it!
