The Power of the Web
Aug 20 2008
This
website is touching lives! Read about a woman in
another country who stumbled upon it and called for
help.
“Come to
our aid, O God of the universe, and put all the
nations in dread of you! Raise your hand
against the heathen, that they may realize your
power. As you have used us to show them your
holiness, so now use them to show us your
glory. Thus they will know, as we know, that
there is no God but you.”
Sirach
36:1-4
Greetings!
I Praise the Lord for His great goodness, in allowing a woman in need of help from another country to contact us for prayer.
I ask for your prayer for this woman. Her name is Mirtha, and she lives in Rio de Janerio, Brazil. A woman named Patty (Mirtha’s friend) who lives in Lima, Peru called and left a message on the phone to reach her by email. In the message she asked for someone who speaks Spanish. Patty was searching the internet to find help for her friend when the Healing Hidden Hurts website popped up on her screen, so she called and left a message.
While I was emailing her back, a friend of mine called, and when I told her of the need for a Spanish speaking woman she gave me the name and phone number of a woman who speaks Spanish and does counseling. I called this woman and asked if she would email Mirtha and see what type help she needs. Afterwards I was telling a few people about the situation, and several people mentioned that people in Brazil do not speak Spanish, but Portuguese.
The next day I had a lunch appointment to meet with a woman, and the date had been set for months in advance. This woman was on the Praise and Prayer email, but I had never met her personally before. During our lunch she shared that she and her husband had lived for a couple of years in Brazil early in their marriage, and she speaks Portuguese. She also does counseling for Birthright and shared how difficult it was for her to communicate with Spanish speaking women.
I felt the Lord was at work in this situation and gave her the email information to reach Mirtha since she can communicate in her native language. What I need from all of you is heartfelt prayer for Mirtha. It has been days and we have had no response from her. I feel that if the Lord went to all the trouble to bring her to us, He wants to help her. Please pray for Mirtha to receive blessings from the Lord, especially the grace to trust God in whatever her situation. He obviously wants to help her, but He wants our intercessory prayers.
Thanks in advance for your prayers for Mirtha…I’ll let you know what the Lord does!
God bless you all!
