cdd The Struggle – Part Nine—————Christian Persecution on an Individual Level

Scripture: 1 Timothy 4:10

“This is why we work hard and continue to struggle, for our hope is in the living God, who is the Savior of all people and particularly of all believers” NKJV

Wasim’ s struggle continues:

I was fasting and praying to the Father asking him to guide me about my future. Then I received a phone call from the USA. A Christian brother said, “We heard about you and we are very sorry.  We have a brother near you named Teddy who is a US national. We have already talked with him and he will help you. When I phoned Teddy he was in his office. Teddy met with us and was very respectful. He offered us a place to stay, money and help in any way he could.

A few days later he called with a contact in Lesotho, Africa who would help. The church in Lesotho would provide a place to stay and help us resettle. There are not correct words to explain the love Teddy and his family offered us. They treated us as a true brother in Christ. We stayed in Lesotho for a month and then left for Botswana.

Then one day I received a packet from Sweden. I’m not sure how they found me but the package was a miracle. It was with great joy when I opened it and received a wonderful newspaper article which contained the early part of my testimony. In Sweden they were praying for us and now people around world would be praying. Jesus is so good!

We spent over 6 years in Botswana. Our church applied for New Zealand and UK residency for us but the requests were denied. I met a friend from my country of Afghanistan who convinced me that things were infinitely better at home. I longed to return. So we moved back. When another friend confirmed that the situation is better in our country, we decided to return to our home land. Final Part Tomorrow.

Prayer: Father thank you for the journey of Wasim and how You have showed us faith in action, while he was under the most difficult, of circumstances. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen
