I thank God for this privilege of being here at BHM. I am just being blessed continually by the people here and the people who come through here. All of their stories are just amazing. I am just amazed that God would have me work here and that I am able to help this ministry. God is doing a mighty work around the world but there are some places that are still living in total darkness. Last night two men arrived from Samaritans Purse and one of them was telling us how he was just in North Korea. He said that the country is a country without a soul. They all walk around like robots and do whatever the leader says to do. He said it is very creepy. I cannot imagine living in a country like that where you cannot do what you want, say what you want, or think for yourself. There is no religion there except bowing to and worshiping the leader. It’s so sad. The Samaritan Purse guy was saying that when the gospel reaches these people they will be on fire for God because they are such dedicated people. Now I’m here in Haiti and I know many, many people do not know Jesus but to see the ones that do know Him is such an encouragement.
The crime here and wickedness is very obvious. Every night we have been praying for this little 3 yr old girl who was kidnapped last week sometime. Yesterday at 4pm the family was supposed to come up with $100,000 US or else the girl would be killed. We haven’t heard anything about it yet. That just sickens my heart that they would take a 3 yr old! Patti told us last night that someone tried to call the kidnappers over the weekend and their message said they do not work on the weekends. They are treating this like a business! So sickening and so wrong.
I am thankful that I am here and that my eyes are being opened to others around the world. It’s so encouraging to see God working around the world. It’s a battle we live in. But our God is strong and victorious and one day this will all be gone…one day. Until that day I want to live, work, breathe, and just be in Him. The best place to be.
