Eye for an Eye
Some not so good news, but news that is in need of
prayer. Hopefully you guys
remember Laura, the 15 year old girl who went to live with her boyfriend. Her sister told me today that she is
pregnant, which unfortunately, we were expecting sooner or later as she was not
using any form of protection. So
far I am the only one on staff that know this. Her sister asked me not to tell anyone, I told her that
others need to know, especially those in leadership positions. She is not ready to tell other yet but
made a deal that on Thursday we would sit down and talk to someone. I don’t really know what this means or
what role we will have in this little gifts life but prayer is needed, in every
aspect for this little baby, so please please pray.
Also some of you might know this as well as I sent out an
email but a little boy, 6 years old, that we work with in Cazuca was hit by a
bus on Saturday afternoon and he was killed. I have found that there is such a vengeful spirit among the
people we work with, we see it all the time and it’s a vicious cycle that only
gets worse and worse. There were
many people who witnessed that accident and now they want to kill the bus
driver and from there the cycle continues. The little boys parents are christians and I pray that they
can be a testimony to those around and hopefully, in the midst of their
tragedy, they can forgive the bus driver and when the others see that, the life
of the bus driver can be spared. I
am hoping that also this will give Mary, who lives in Cazuca more opportunity
to speak into people’s lives.
Tragedy’s like this can never be understood or even explained. I am just thankful that we have a God,
who somehow, often in ways we can’t see can make beauty out of this, he turns
ashes into beauty and I have faith that beauty will come out of this
tragedy. Well Satan meant it for
evil, God will use it for good.
Please keep this family and the bus driver in your prayers.
On another note, I will probably be writing again next week
to share a little dream that God has placed on my heart that is finally
starting to come to reality. Some
of you know but I look forward to sharing it with the rest of you.
Thanks again for your prayers
