Last night Eric and I came across a wonderful documentary on public TV called "A Walk to Beautiful". It has added, yet another tear to my bucket labeled My-Heart-and-Passion-for-Ethiopia. God has continued to place these magnificent people on my heart and mind. Wonderful little reminders that He has begun something that is not yet finished. . .
I also had to google obstetric fistula, after watching the show, because it is something we (pregnant or expecting women) in the US never need to worry about.
The woman's story documented in the show reminded me immediately of the woman in the Bible who reached out in GREAT faith to simply touch Jesus' robe, in order to receive healing from a devastating life of being an outcast - due to continual bleeding. Jesus had such compassion on this woman. . . and it is contagious to the spirit in me. Join me in praying for, and lifting up these fellow women, who know hardship all too well.
