I almost peed my pants in hysterics! We were at the strip club on Saturday night and this little Christian lady named Linda starts hugging a super tall stripper in stiletto heels. Here's the funny part...the stripper didn't have a shirt on...of any kind. They kept hugging over and over. I had to look away because I was laughing so hard at the sight of it! At that moment I thought, "I want to be like Linda when I get older." Not because I want to be in a similar physical situation as her, but because I want to have a heart like hers.
The strip club ministry I'm a part of is made up mostly of older women. They give their hearts and souls to these strippers; they love them unconditionally. They are the sweetest bunch of women I've ever been around. If you look at them you would never guess that they spend time at a strip club; you'd be shocked to know that they hug topless strippers.
What kind of person do you want to be in ten, twenty or thirty years? I'm sure those women never dreamed that they'd be involved in a ministry to strippers. There is something about their hearts, though, that makes them give unabashedly to a ministry that most would frown upon.
I don't know about you, but I want to be someone who loves the unlovable, who serves without limits, and who goes beyond my comfort zone to show the love of Jesus.
