i listened to an audio called the faces of God by Richard Wurmbrandt a few days back and found this video link. There are no words to describe how much this moved and touched me. After listening to the audio, i realized how i have throughout my walk with Christ not prayed for my brothers and sisters in Christ, who are suffering greatly for their faith throughout the world. i have committed to daily praying for those who are being tortured, persecuted, in prison and suffering all kinds of evil and cruelty at the hands of their tormentors.
My prayer is that those who view this video will also be touched and moved to do the same. As i was praying this morning, the thought,"Out of sight, out of mind" spoke loud and clear. This has been the way for me as i have forgotten and lacked diligence in praying for my suffering brothers and sisters in the faith. We, as His followers, need to be MINDFUL and keep in our sight these brethren who desperately need our prayers. When you think you have suffered much here in this country, it pales in comparison to those of His precious Body who have and continue to suffer the most heinous brutality for their faith in Christ. And yet, the love and compassion that many of these brethren show toward those who torture them is like no other testimony to grip a child of God's heart.
