Joan and Lori went to visit Maha for the weekend. Maha is an isolated believer who struggles with returning to Islam because sometimes being a Christian is just “too hard.” They were able to spend several hours encouraging her, worshiping with her, and praying with her. Joan and Lori realized that the timing was God ordained because while Maha fears that she could go back to Islam, that isn’t what she desires. She was very firm in saying that she wants to follow Jesus and feels burdened for her family to know Him. The women dialoged at length about the cost of following Jesus and why it’s worth it. They shared how to walk with Him daily and why that’s so important. Please pray for Maha and the other isolated believers to have confidence that the Holy Spirit is with them to “teach [them] all things” (John 14:26 ESV). Pray that they will be “be wise as serpents and innocent as doves” (Matthew 10:16 ESV) as they learn to share Jesus with their families and friends. Pray that they will remember that God has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you” (Hebrews 13:5 ESV).
