Gov. Greg Abbott has found a solution to human trafficking: prayer.
for each day of the week, so for those who’d like to follow along, here’s what’s on the menu for this weekend.- Pray for Texans to have the courage and skills to speak up and intervene when they see behavior that puts others at risk.- Pray for every child to have access to safe, supportive mentors and role models.- Pray for discernment on the actions you can personally take to prevent human trafficking.
The Saturday prayer is particularly noteworthy considering how Texas' foster care system was described just this week asby the same federal judge who has twice held the state in contempt of court for violating orders to make it better. Divine intervention might be the only hope those poor kids have left.
Of course, human trafficking also is a serious, complex problem in the Lone Star State and beyond. In 2019, Texas ranked, according to the National Human Trafficking Hotline. Still, while Abbott's at it, we’d appreciate it if his office petitioned the Lord to end the pandemic,Dallas Observer , it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we'd like to keep it that way.
