Report: North Korea Publicly Executes Christian Woman for Distributing Bible.  Husband and 3 children sent to prison camp.

Pray for comfort, peace, and blessings upon this family.

Ya'know Jab,
Sumthin' inside says the Lord has beat us to it!

Good point, I'm sure you're right.  We're still told to pray for all men everywhere...maybe a "special" blessing upon them may ensue, and sometimes, I think God uses prayer for others, as a blessing and to help the ones that are doing the praying!   :thumbsup:

Prayer is interesting.  God is in control, but we're told to pray.  I've seen Him use our frailty, including our pitiful little prayers, to do some amazing things.  As I said it seems to me God uses all that to bring people together, bring us strength, magnify/glorify His name by showing obvious acts of His hand in answer to prayer, etc.  Just a touching, sad (through the lenses of this life) situation.

God's love and mercy to these dear folks...

I pray constantly, all day long.

 :cloud9: Amen, agreeing with the Comforter to come to all involved in that situation, and for the fire of the Holy Ghost to topple that regime, without firing a shot. Blessings....

Yes Jab - it's like a concert. He's conducting - we're praying in rhythm with what He's doing... :thumbsup:

Prayers on the way.
There are just no words.
I can't imagine what it is like to live under such persecution.

Amen to all four of you.  Her family is hurting, but the lady having laid down her life for the Gospel is truely the one that's now OK...better than OK.  She will receive her crown of righteousness.
