As you and I celebrate the 4th of July, and freedom of worship, I thought of an email I received from Voice of the Martyrs. (www.persecution.com) Voice of the Martyrs (from our friends dcTalk) monitors world wide assaults on Christians. You need to know how badly some of our brothers and sisters have daily life in other countries.
At the website, you can subscribe to email newsletters, and follow them on twitter. Through twitter on my cell phone, I get several prayer requests per day from them, based on events around the world.
If you ever plan to work for the Lord, this is a great time to do it! Read what Paul said to Timothy in I Timothy 4...."This is why we've thrown ourselves into this venture so totally. We're banking on the living God, Savior of all men and women...Get the word out." (MSG - emphasis mine)
