Dear Friends and Family,
I want to tell you a quick story about this elderly lady from the Northeast. This photo was taken in 2006 by my friend Naomi. Prior to this photo being taken, this old woman, with her large humpback(probably from years of bending over to plant rice) was sweeping the outside of the temple grounds with her little broom. It was a sad sight. Why would a woman of her age be doing such a thing? Probably to make merit. To make her afterlife better. Rather than resting in the love and eternal salvation that the Father has for her, she is still working, instead of resting in the completed work of Christ who is our salvation.
This is our prayer: that God’s gospel of free, unconditional grace will sweep through Thailand and cut the cords of bondage. That women like this old lady, and men, will experience the exchanged life, HIS resurrected life given to us.
