Village Life

These are photos taken while visiting some rural believers in Northern Thailand this past week.
I took lots of pictures and it is always hard to choose which to share but these, I thought, captured the people and their lives .

This young lady was doing some weeding near her home

and had such a beautiful smile.

These believers have very little in material possesions

but they have the joy of the Lord.

~ Typical village home ~    ~mother & child~

Meeting new brothers and sisters in Christ.

The Lord used these visits to challenge my heart in many ways again.

I needed to be reminded of how much I have and thank the Lord for blessing me with comforts so many do not have.
