It’s a sad thing when people allow fear to usurp their love; especially God’s people.
The Bible says, “There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear…”
Today one of our students had to return to her home in Nepal because fear got the best of her. I understand the real problem to be unperfected love, not only on her part, but on the part of her family as well as her pastor.
The reason she had to leave is because her “husband” who has another wife forced her to return. A lot of people are afraid of this man because of his ties with the Maoist terrorist group of Nepal. So, even though her family and her pastor know this man to be abusive, they do nothing.
As a father, I can’t understand doing nothing; I can’t understand allowing fear to stand in the way of helping or protecting a loved one. The love of God in me is greater than any fear the enemy can manufacture. I won’t allow fear to stand in my way. If the people closest to the young lady who had to leave our school just loved her more then they feared her husband, things could be different.
Please pray for Dilu (pronounced Deelu). She is a victim, and in many ways she is all alone. But we know that God can and will make a way for her.
Absolutley we will be in prayer for Dilu! May God give her the spirit of wisdom, and love, and a sound mind, that she will not give in to the spirit of fear but stand against the devices of the enemy and testify of her Lord.
