I talked at length with a man from South Africa who was working in the US, hoping to bring his family and girlfriend here, but his visa was not extended. He told me that we cannot imagine what the women go through in his country, the daily fear of rape and murder. He said there is nowhere they are safe.

He told me about his farming parents and how they feared for their lives on a daily basis -- the farm, by its nature, can't have neighbors close at hand, and they are easy targets for robbers and thieves. Hard to sleep at night, difficult to work during the day. He said all of these problems are exacerbated by the family being not white.

The country needs MUCH prayer and a nation of changed hearts.

Finally! Someone got it right! Prayer and changed hearts; only God, the one true Christian God, the Alpha and Omega, can do this.
