The Powerful Testimony and Conversion of "The Girl in the Picture"

You intended to harm me,
but God intended it for good
to accomplish
what is now being done,
the saving of many lives.
were called to be free.

Genesis 50:20 (NIV)

The iconic image of a Vietnamese girl (Kim Phuc), naked, burned by napalm as she runs down a road won a Pulitzer Prize.

But it was a dark moment for America during the Vietnam War. And the enemy used it as a treasured propaganda tool.

But God had other plans, as Kim Phuc gives her testimony recorded below in an interview:

“And when I read in John 14:6, where Jesus say, ‘I am the way, the truth and the life, no man comes to the Father except by Me,’ I was really confused,” she (Kim Phuc) told Griffith. “Oh, my religion different and why Jesus say that? I keep searching. And finally in Christmas 1982, I became a Christian.”

“How did that help you forgive the people that dropped the bombs that burned you?” Griffith asked.

“The picture of Jesus Christ when they put Him on the cross and they kill Him, so Jesus say, Father, forgive them, they don’t know what they are doing,” she replied. “So that picture, that words, Lord, help me to do the same thing like you did. And I started to pray for my enemies.”

Heavenly Father,

During the dark days in our history, Your grace and mercy has broken through. What may have been meant for evil, You have turned it to good.

Give us a heart of repentance and forgiveness. May we pray for our enemies and conquer hate with love, evil with good.

Protect all those who go into harm's way to defend us. Shield Your servants from attacks on all fronts. And through the power of Your Spirit, may America will be great again.

In Jesus Name we pray,

Amen

-----------

Give thanks to the LORD,
for He is good;
His love endures forever.

Psalm 18:2 (NIV)

Keep praying for America

Please join us in praying for America and our American heroes who defend us

My prayer is not
that you take them out of the world
but that you protect them
from the evil one.

>Mercy triumphs over judgment.<

.
BUT often a heart has to be broken again and again before its prayer is answered.
I have no intention to blaspheme, but mercy often comes at such a high price that the recipient is too dejected to enjoy the gift.
