1. So Friday, the conclusion that I came to after I saw the Jim Elliot video during ACCESS was that we need more strong women. I mean, how crazy is it that after losing all of their husbands and being left to raise up the children by themselves, one of the wives and one of the sisters decided to go continue the mission?
I would assume that after hearing of their husbands demise, they would have cried out to God, frustrated at His hand in the matter. How could such a God let these men die? Men who had laid down their lives to advance His kingdom? Could such a God even exist? If so, how could He be good?
But these women were so strong in their faith, in their shared conviction with their husbands, that they somehow overcame all of the pain and sadness to stand up once again for God's kingdom. Wow.
I don't know, just after watching that, not only was I moved by how God is always faithful, but also just overwhelmed by the strength of these women.
