Poverty and Violence
Afghanistan is a very poor country. There is a spirit of violence and hatred everywhere. The average family has 7 children in Afghanistan,
and it is not unlikely to hear of 10 or 11. There are children
everywhere. But they are children without hope. The children are often beaten by their parents and then go out into the streets and beat each other up.
"Some of the children have even threatened to kill us. I have never seen more violent children than I have seen here. There is a great deal of abuse and bad treatment of children within their own homes. Please pray for these children."
Please Pray
Lord Jesus, please deliver the children from unreasonable and wicked men. Guard them, Faithful Lord, guard these children from the evil one. Plant and keep their hearts in the love of Christ. Holy Spirit please come to Afghanistan and take the children by the hand - lead them and guide them into the love of God.
(2 Thessalonians 3:1-5)
