Diary : 24 May 2011 (Backdated)

Was having some difficulty logging on to blogger over the last few days. So I'm going to try to back-blog !

Today, I received word that an elderly lady has passed on. She is one of the many that we have reached out to, and i'm further saddened that she has not yet come into an encounter with Christ before passing on.

You see, in the village i work in. Its filled with husbands hitting wives, many times battering them to their death. But this family that we reached out was different. The husband loved the wife very much. So much so that during her sickness, he walked 2km everyday just to reach us to ask us to come visit.

Many times as we prayed with the elderly man, he would break into tears. Knowing that time was short but there was nothing he could do to help his wife's condition. The family had no money for dialysis treatment and all they could do was to wait.

I guess he must have been devastated and I wish I was back in Khek Noi for the funeral.
