K told me this week that she's been reading the Word in Uyghur now. She has a copy of it with her back in the dorm (she moved back there this week) and is eager to keep reading more... especially since she can only read it here. If she tried to smuggle it back to her home town it would be taken by police if found, and would cause her lots of trouble for family and culture and perhaps pseudo legal reasons. Right now, since she's still investigating Jesus and the Bible, it's not worth it to her to take it that far, like when she returns home this summer. But for now, she told me, she's very glad to be able to read it here, now.
She turned 23 recently so I mentioned to her the 23rd Psalm... and then also John 10 how Jesus is the Shepherd that lays down his life for his sheep. She's listening. Now... may the Lord give grace that her heart and soul would be soft soil, fertile ground, to "recieve with meekness the implanted word which is able to save [her] soul."
Please continue to pray as well for her boyfriend E who has heard this news too.... may he begin to wrestle with this more and more and not just push what he's hearing aside...
Thank you for your prayers dear friends!
