Bangladesh

     I've not written a post here in a while, but I feel I must come back because God is continuing to place things on my heart and I need an outlet for them aside from prayer.

     My children and I love getting the resources from VOM. In the past, they've received a Kids of Courage magazine that told them of the struggles of Christian children in Bangladesh. We took time and prayed for them and continue to pray for them. I received the current issue of VOM and the focus is on Bangladesh as the violence is escalating there. My heart goes out to them and I want to pray and ask God to stop the seeming senseless violence, but to hear those precious ones who trust in God. They actually laugh at the easy life we live! That's amazing to me. They are ready and willing to suffer (God helps them to be brave while they are getting attacked) as Jesus did and don't complain! If service is over the time limit we complain! Oh man. These are the heroes I want my children growing up to admire. Not the fake Superman's and Spiderman's of our day. These are the real heroes and they will get their reward! I love these people so much! I am honored to be called their sister in Christ!

I'm glad to hear you'll be posting about our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ again! We too receive updates from Vom. It's great to be able to pray specifically for our brothers and sisters in Christ!

Hello...

Hi,
I saw the your username, and had to see. :) I see you haven't posted in a while, so I don't know if you still do.
But, I have to say that I also receieve the VOM updates, and enjoy learning about the persecuted Church.
I believe that I'm called to missions, so to me, it takes a very personal aspect.
And, thank you for devoting your blog to that purpose.
Would you mind if I added you to my friends?
In Christ,
Grace
