My heart goes out to all the Chinese brothers and sisters here. Once again, the face so much persecution. They face a lot of family pressure if they are believers. Children are not allowed to go to the church service, but that doesn’t stop godly parents from taking them. It’s a whole different world over here in China, one where the choice to be a Christian can be costly. We pray for a wonderful revival here, and we pray for the people that we see day today as we go about our business. There can be so much oppression spiritually that sometimes my heart feels so heavy. But it’s nothing compared to what God feels. Imagine watching my children walk away from the Lord? It would be so painful and as I consider his heart for the lost people of China, who don’t know about his love and freedom, I can only imagine it is the pain I would feel multiplied multiplied and then again multiplied. If you live in a country where there is freedom, don’t take it for granted. Tell people about Jesus!
This week has felt very lonely for some reason. Living in a communist country where spiritual oppression can be strong practically and spiritually and press down upon us.
Desiring to see more and more souls for Jesus!
Desiring to see yokes of bondage and sin lifted off thousands!
Desiring to see orphans loved and adopted. Not left to rot in orphanages without love.
Desiring to inspire those saved to reach out and be contagious for Jesus!
So….
Pressing on!
For those of you here who know us and are wondering how we are doing, we are doing well enough. We sent out 42 Christmas boxes ( shoeboxes filled with gifts) to a very poor country orphanage we have been witnessing to. And it will also reach a few very poor families. Rejoicing and trusting that every seed planted will bear fruit!
@richardafaherty a hearty AMEN!
It’s raining here And there are many roads in our city that are flooding! Beijing has asked for people to stay home. Buses have stopped.
PLEASE PRAY for the elderly and people who have difficult circumstances as a result. Some have to be evacuated. Others remember a flash flooding that happened in 2012 that lost 79 lives.
It’s quiet amazing thought I get rain for two weeks in a row - as usually Beijing is hot and no rain all summer long!
And here is a video of how we are being affected 😂😂😂. Thinking of inviting the grandchildren for a splashing party! This is a sunroom upstairs in our house 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Please, pray for Torben and Lene Sondergaard.
