Idols are literally EVERYWHERE in Taiwan.
When I was at our local walmart/target-like store, I found these: 3M sticky idols.
I was truly taken aback at first, but then I remembered that this is Taiwan, the island of a thousand gods.
Father, please continue to have mercy on the Taiwanese people giving them more time to respond to your grace. Soften their hearts and open their eyes. Set them free from the idol worship that binds them.
Japan is also called the land of (something like) 8 million gods...so sad with you. (Found you via Coffee Girl blog- we are missionaries in Japan). God's blessings.
ReplyDelete(Ditto that prayer...) AMEN!
ReplyDeleteIf I'd not read what you wrote, I would assume that was just a woman in traditional dress. Wow. I guess 3M will do what they can to make money -- at any cost.
ReplyDeleteHi there! :) i don't know whether to think that's cute or what but kudos to 3M i guess!
ReplyDeleteThis just breaks my heart.
ReplyDeleteHello there! My name is Sarah Beth and I’m an MK in Peru! I came across your blog today and I was wondering if it would be ok with you if I added your blog to my blog. See, I have a blog for MKs and I’m added other missionaries blogs that way other ppl can see what God is doing in your field through your ministry.
ReplyDeleteMy blog it: http://theotherside-mks.blogspot.com
Thanks!
Smiling for Jesus,
Sarah Beth
P.S. I was reading through some of your posts and you really made me laugh! : ) Thanks for posting!
Hi Sarah Beth,
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed my blog and also took the time to comment. Yes, it'd be
perfectly fine for you to add my blog to yours.
I've been sick this week, so I did go poke around your blog earlier, but
haven't yet really had the time to look closely. I go back and do that
soon!
Hope you have a great weekend,
in joy,
amanda :)
