Update from Wednesday...

Wow... what to post. MM shared some stories with me that I find quite hard to post.  They are in an area of [somewhat] affluence and yet spiritual bondage just abounds everywhere.  Lots of cult practice there and the divorce rate is quite high. 

Precious story of a step-parent brining a child everyday to clinics to "help" and members getting to explain the tracts he is so interested in. Also a sad story of a parent brining in a teenager that was suffering the physical effects of a demonic attack. 

People, we don't like to talk about it, but Satan is real and according to the Bible his primary goal is to destroy... lives, families, bodies... you name it.  However, we are not without hope...
1 Peter 5:7-10 (New International Version)

7Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
8Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings.
 10And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 11To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.

Pray for the team today as they feed the hungry, pray for the broken hearted, stitch up wounds and more.... all in the name of Jesus.
