Imagine walking into a room to find an infant wailing as if her life depended on it. An adult, piercing the infant's skin with a sharp object, is causing the distress. Any compassionate person would attempt to intervene and rescue the child, wouldn't he? But let's add a few more details into this scenario. What if the woman wounding the infant is a doctor and her instrument is a syringe? What if she tells you that this child must be immunized, or later she could contract a serious illness?
This week I want to share the story of two little girls in South India--in fact they live in the state where I grew up. Their remote village has no school, but their grandparents' dream is for them to escape the poverty of the area. To read how the Lord is using GFA native missionary Jubal to touch these little girls' lives and give them hope for the future, click here: http://www.gfa.org/newsupdate092606?motiv=WA69-G2PS
As you see how the little children of India, like these girls, crave the love and hope found in Jesus, I hope you will be encouraged that through your prayers you are changing lives forever.
Thank you for your heart for the lost. May the Lord bless you!
"I believe the Bible is the best gift God has ever given to man. All the good from the Savior of the world is communicated to us through this book." --Abraham Lincoln
"For we must consider that we shall be as a City upon a hill. The eyes of all people are upon us. So that if we shall deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken, and so cause Him to withdraw his present help from us, we shall be made a story and a byword throughout the world." --John Winthrop, Governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, 1630
"America was born a Christian nation. America was born to exemplify that devotion to the elements of righteousness, which are derived from the revelations of Holy Scriptures. Part of the destiny of Americans lies in their daily perusal of this great book of revelations. That if they would see America free and pure they will make their own spirits free and pure by this baptism of the Holy Spirit." --Woodrow Wilson
"It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religions, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ. For this very reason peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum, prosperity, and freedom of worship here." --Patrick Henry, original member of the Continental Congress
