more requests for Myanmar

Here's a new update from the Sets:

"We thank God for answering our prayers in opening doors.

"Our relief team is now faced with many requests from various contacts to come to their villages. It’s going to be difficult to have to turn down some of them as they have limited supplies and manpower. . . .

"Besides supplying basic needs such as rice, beans and salt, we are hoping to supply the villagers with two-man boats and fishing nets for them to start catching crabs (crab season now). In the days to come, we also hope to help build some of the houses as well. Most villages in that area have been destroyed, and some have been totally wiped-out.

"Please also remember to pray for another team of eleven Burmese going in this Monday 23rd June. They are from the Myanmar Judson Baptist Church in Singapore. They too are hoping to get their medicines in with them."

About Me

In the Old Testament in the Bible, there was a man named Jacob who "wrestled with God and man." He wouldn't let God go until God answered his prayers. God admired that and renamed him Israel, "the one who fought or wrestled and prevailed". He fought with man--his inner man--and conquered his own weaknesses. He's my hero. He is what I hope God and man see me to be.
