As him and friend George were out walking through the streets of Dhaka going across a pedestrian bridge sat many people begging, "they reach out and grab your legs as you walk by" at one point Adam said he got impatient about the whole thing.George gave someone a few Taka's then another, then another, Adam said once you start they all come to you. Many are professional beggar's and it's hard to find the ones that really need help. He asked that we pray for him ..for discearnment and patience.
As they walked they came to one of the most beautiful places that he has ever seen , he said all of a sudden he felt the "darkness" as the place held all of the snake charmers, the Shaman's and the prostitutes. He looked into their eyes and it was demonic, but he said he could look into their hearts as well and they wanted to be free. They needed to hear of Jesus ,not many have heard of him Adam said.
During the month of December he will be sharing the gospel throughout Bangladesh, January he leave on a train to Bihar, India for a month .
He praises the Lord as he was able to receive the packages that were sent,one from his Grandma who had sent it through the normal Postal service..6 weeks later it arrived ,a package from Grace Assembly (our church ) also arrived. The two packages only cost him about 6,000 Taka which is about $87.00. He was so excited as were the rest of the students as they share the many snacks. The medical items that were sent will help as once again Adam becomes the "Hammer Dr".
I asked him if he "was ready to come home"? I got a "NOPE" and he giggled.
Kim and I continue to miss him more than words can describe, at times it's more than we can bare. But we also know that he is in the Lord's hands & not ours anymore.We prayed for the God's will and this is where HE has taken Adam. God is faithful

I thought about Adam on Thanksgiving Day, and wondered how he would spend his day. I'm glad he was able to call and visit with you!
ReplyDeleteIt seems clear to me that you parent K's nurtured a seed that God must have planted in Adam's heart; and now it is taking root, and apparently gaining strength, enabling Adam to continue pursuing this challenging work that only inspired, dedicated, and unselfish people will commit to. You must be bursting with pride at the man Adam has turned into, even as you are aching to hug him tight and enjoy being around him more often. I also know that you have turned Adam over to the lordship of Jesus Christ, whom you K's serve with all your hearts and minds in as many different ways as you can think of. You all continue to make a difference for Good in this world, despite a price that many or most others would refuse to pay. God love you three thoroughly! prs
