Can you imagine meeting a young boy who has been nearly beaten to death by his drunk father?
OR
Finding a baby on the bank of a river covered in ants, that are eating him alive?
OR
Seeing a baby extremely neglected to the degree that he has been left long enough to develop huge sores from his own urine that he has been lying in?
These are three stories of three young boys that I have met while being in Cambodia. The common denominator to these three boys is the fact, that our contacts have rescued them from physical death. Our contacts now have custody of these children. God has given me the opportunity to love and play with them a few times a week.
The first boy has been given the name JOSHUA. He is being raised by a couple young men in their twenties, who run the youth and children’s ministries. This boy walks with such a righteous demeanor that points to Christ in every stride. He wants to become a pastor. I love watching him worship with such an intensity. The annointing on Joshua is so STRONG!
The second boy has been given the name MOSES, obviously because he was found on a river bank. He now has the opportunity to live a life with love and discipleship.
The third boy has been given the name AARON. He is so full of life, and is always running around with a huge smile on his face!
It is so awesome to see how the hand of God is on these three boy’s lives. I love the fact that our contacts gave them very strong Biblical names. I do not think it is any coincidence that their three names are so closely knit in the Bible. I believe that God has moved in their lives in such a strong way that these three boys can and will change the Kingdom of Cambodia! This nation IS bound to idol worship, among other things, and it needs a generation of people to shine God’s light. In the Bible these three men took part in bringing Israel into their promised land. These boys also have the POTENTIAL to bring Cambodia into the nation God has called them to be!
