Hi friends! I have a video to share with you today. I hope you will take the time to watch it. It really makes you stop and think what some Christians in the world are going through on behalf of Christ, and how fortunate we are to have freedom of speech and worship. I wonder how many of us would be willing to suffer as these believer's are.
"In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted." (2 Timothy 3:12)

I've seen this before. The persecuted is something I'm very passionate for. The lives that have influenced me the most have seen death's face. Sometimes I wonder if the Bible was illegal here, if that would make people read it. I mean, I hear about people in Asia who write books of the bible all over their bodies because they can't carry the Word around. They memorize and live it out. And here we are, with bookstores filled and we don't read it. While others are being persecuted for that.
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing this.
Wow! That made me stop right in my tracks and pray!! Somehow the trivial things I was upset about yesterday are just really nothing. How privileged we are in our country, we are so safe and secure to worship God as we please. We even take Him for granted because of the bounty of blessings we have here. I just had no idea the persecution that was happening there!
ReplyDeleteSo true, ladies! I know I take so much for granted. We are so very blessed.
