The missionary women arrived
today (Wednesday). Tonight as we begin our time together and I listened to their hearts, I
was so reminded of why we are 'called' to do what we do!! Please continue to
remember to pray for our time with the women here. Today has been really
incredible as we have heard their hearts
They shared with us tonight
that the 'spiritual warfare' in this country is really obvious and difficult.
Also, the poverty level is very high. One of the hotel staff shared with a
team member they can keep no businesses going here such at McDonald's, Burger
King, and such, which we actually have seen in most foreign countries we have
traveled to all over the world. The reason none are here is that there isn't
enough money generated to keep them in business. At one point a Subway
franchise came here but ended up shutting down relatively soon after opening.
It isn't that they don't want to be here, but again the poverty level keeps
them from being successful. Ha...on the flip side most of those types of
franchises in America produce poverty of 'health' for our bodies!!
My prayer today for the
missionary women and you reading this blog is from 2 Chronicles 16:9 (ESV) “For
the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give support
to those whose heart is blameless (devoted) toward Him.”
Husbands back home and
missionary husbands....your wives are doing well. This is already a sweet time
for them. Thank you again for sharing them with us this week!!
Love you All,
His,
