We arrived on a Thursday morning after riding an overnight bus to Phuket. After being escorted into where our bedrooms were, we all laid down to sleep for a few hours before our ministry would begin in the afternoon. When I laid down, I saw a vision that looked like this:
 

Because it is something I love to do and it happened to be Sharon’s (our contacts) birthday on June 9th, with the encouragement of my teammates, I painted this for her from all of us. The rest of my teammates added little pieces of collage and written scripture to speak truths to the women that the SHE organization is working with here. So here is the final product:

Some of the verses and words of truth that my teammates added were:

Jeremiah 31:13 “I will turn their mourning into joy. I will comfort them and exchange their sorrow for rejoicing.”
 
Hosea 2: 14-15 “But then I will win her back once again. I will lead her into the desert and speak tenderly to her there. I will return her vineyards to her and transform the Valley of Trouble into a gateway of hope.”
 

Psalm 5:11 Spread your protection over them, that all who love your name may be filled with joy.
 
Micah 6:8 Do justice, Love mercy, walk humbly with your God. 

 
When the Lord saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, “Don’t cry.”
 
For the Lord delights in you.
 
Your were sold, but you will be redeemed.
 
Beauty, Growth, Love
