One of My Kids is Cared For

I just want to jump up and down praising God right now! A huge answer to prayer today. One of "my kids" at Mahathai, T., finally will have a Christian male role model in his life!! T. struggles a lot with his male identity, even though he's only 11 years old. I see him being pushed into a lifestyle not pleasing to God. I have been praying for four years for a man to show interest in reading the Bible with T.

God answered. Another ministry downtown has a coffee shop that employs "ladyboys", men who dress like women, and helps get them out of working in the bars as prostitutes. One of the male Thai staff in that ministry would like to do preventative outreach work. He has generously come to meet T. today and decided to meet with him weekly. When he asked T. what T. wanted to do weekly, T. said so openly that he wanted to read the Bible and pray! Praise God that T. showed no inhibitions and felt comfortable with this guy. Praise God for caring for his child, T., and helping him know God. Praise God for the male role model and his motivation to serve God in this way. Please continue praying for the males in the Mahathai community. Pray for Christian friendships for them.
