Despite Brokenness, Lakhan's Faith Stands Strong
The Word provided solace and strength in time of despair
Because of you, Bibles are being placed into the hands of those who need them most. Safraz, one of our partner’s in Pakistan, wanted to share the following story with you:
“Lakhan, a bright-eyed youngster residing in the town of Tando-Allahyar in Interior Sindh, embarked on a life-altering journey when he embraced Jesus Christ as his Savior. However, this decision was not without its challenges. A few individuals in his community vehemently opposed his Christian beliefs, sparking a conflict that would test his faith and resilience.
One unfortunate day, while returning home from a prayer gathering, Lakhan was confronted by a group of aggressive individuals who expressed their contempt for his newfound faith. In a moment of senseless violence, they assaulted Lakhan, leaving him with a grievously broken leg.
Despite the excruciating pain and the traumatic experience, Lakhan’s resolve remained unshaken. Instead of succumbing to despair or bitterness, he found solace and strength in the pages of the Bible you sent him. With unwavering determination, he continued to immerse himself in scripture, finding comfort, guidance, and hope in the teachings of Jesus Christ.
As Lakhan’s broken leg slowly healed, his faith in Jesus only deepened. Despite adversity and opposition, he refused to renounce his belief, drawing strength from his unwavering trust in God’s love and provision. Lakhan transformed from a victim of persecution to a beacon of hope and inspiration. His steadfast commitment to Jesus Christ was a powerful testimony inspiring those around him to find strength in their belief in the Son of God.
As time passed, Lakhan’s story of courage and perseverance spread throughout his community, touching the hearts of many. His journey became a testament to the enduring strength of faith and the boundless love of Jesus Christ, leaving an indelible mark on those who crossed his path.
