Whatever Lord : Monday night prayers 23 Oct.2017

A few things happened this week that restore my faith in doing what we are doing. Two weeks ago we went into the jungle to treat some people and found an uncle that knows how to test for Malaria. Left him some rapid Malaria test and this time he came and show me the results. He had 3 out of 4 people with bad malaria. I left them more medicines in order to combat tis terrible illness. I could follow up on the lady, that always cook for us, as she has high blood pressure and it work out good that I can bring more meds for her. The appreciation on her face makes me come back more and more.

When we did our outreach on our way in, at Thor Piang Rosey we met a small 6 year old girl with a serious case of Pink eye. Her eye was swollen shut and she was in real bad pain. After cleaning it and lots of tears, I patched the eye up and sent her away with lots of antibiotics. On our way back we stopped and saw the girl again and in two days her eyes were much better. Heang’s mum said that if people come to her and ask for help, she always pray for them and then Dr.Mordegai comes. I can only say, Praise the Lord that I am able to be obedient to the Lord and take time with these lovely people. There were some people that came in and said, “thank you Buddha for bringing a doctor here.” My friend told them,” do not give thanks to Buddha but praise God that this is happening.” It is great bringing guys like Ben with me that understand much more Khmer than me and that sits amongst the people and listen to them, to tell me all this small detail stuff. Just loves it.

Please pray for Heang’s mum, she has a cist on her Ovaries and they will check it out tomorrow and we will know for sure if they will operate. They are here with us now and I will bring them to the hospital tomorrow.

Continue to pray for this little community of Christians where they struggle in church. I am communicating with the leaders but they are foreigners and do not want to listen to me. Frustrating is not even a word. There are so many churches in the province that struggles with the same issues. I thank God for a small church in Kabal Domrey that is so faithful in even having a handful or less people in church and still do it every day. Reminds me of an old missionary friend hat went to church every Sunday with a new sermon, for many years and no one came to listen to him. Obedience to the Lord is what we need.

Continue to pray for Fe:
