今天早上看到了23名韓國人被塔利班綁架，隨時面臨生命危險的消息。為他們禱告了。
晚上又看到lily的留言提起這件事，又再為他們禱告了一次。禱告的時候心裏特別難過，緫有淚水想湧出來。
一直在關注新聞，看到他們還沒有遇害，看到塔利班有意向釋放其中的一些人。
再搜了一下，果然，他們是一群基督徒，在那裏提供醫療服務。
再次的禱告，心裏是說不出的滋味。
此刻他們的心裏可能會驚慌，也可能會喜樂，因爲他們受到迫害是為了主名。但是我們的心是哀痛的，我們看到我們的弟兄姊妹在患難之中，甚至要失去性命。
他們在踏上征途之前，肯定已經能預見到前方的危險，可是還是去了。而我們在那一周裏，因爲聽到一些風聲鶴唳，就一直擔驚受怕。。。
願主與祂的工人們同在，安撫他們的心靈，帶領他們走出死亡的幽谷。阿門。
我又想起這首歌：
Find Us Faithful - Steve Green
We're pilgrims on the journey
Of the narrow road
And those who've gone before us line the way
Cheering on the faithful, encouraging the weary
Their lives a stirring testament to God's sustaining grace
Surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses
Let us run the race not only for the prize
But as those who've gone before us
Let us leave to those behind us
The heritage of faithfulness passed on through godly lives
Chorus:
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
May the fire of our devotion light their way
May the footprints that we leave
Lead them to believe
And the lives we live inspire them to obey
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
After all our hopes and dreams have come and gone
And our children sift though all we've left behind
May the clues that they discover and the memories they uncover
Become the light that leads them to the road we each must find
