Hello everyone. I apologize for the delay in blog posts. A lot has been going on in my life and I have not had the time to post. I hope that you understand.

I have such a heart for my persecuted Brothers and Sisters in Christ and I wanted to share these prayer requests with you. I receive prayer requests and newsletters from Voice of the Martrys. They are a Christian group that helps persecuted Christians all over the world.

I have just recently received a card called 14 Days of Prayer. I am a few days behind, but I am sharing them with you anyway.

I will be posting each prayer request for the next 10 days. Days 1-4 today and the rest everyday until you receive them all. They won’t be very long. Only about a paragraph. So please stop by daily and read the prayer request for the day and pray for our Brothers and Sisters in chains.

I love you all.

Lord bless you!

Day 1

Ruth is a widow whose husband was killed in a religious riot in Nigeria. Pray for Nigerian widows.

Day 2

Muslim extremists attacked Christian families, burned 50 homes and killed livestock in Pakistan. Pray families find peace.

Day 3

Shi Weihan was sentenced to three years in a Chinese prison for printing Bibles. Pray God’s Word spreads.

Day 4

Colombian guerillas shot Marcella, Lydia and Jeffrey’s parents because they shared Jesus with others. Pray for their safety.

Thank you for praying with me for persecuted Christians all over the world. Please come back tomorrow for the days prayer request.

Everything had been going well in her world. She was achieving her dreams and accomplishing goals that would allow her and her family to have a better life someday. She had placed sixth in a major contest just last year in China, and had been signed by model scout Dilson Stein who was also responsible for discovering Supermodel Gisele Bundchen.

Then in less than a month her entire world was flipped upside down. Continue reading →

December 31, 2008. The last day of the year 2008. Can you believe it? It feels like time really flew this year. I look back on the last year and I’m amazed at all I’ve learned and all that I’ve overcome. I did not achieve all that I had hoped to. I did not work on my book as much as I had intended, and therefore was unable to complete it for example. However, I did finally get my blog up and running, and you know what? I’m very proud of that! That is a major achievement. It took Continue reading →
