When Heaven Meets Earth

I’ve been amazed at Mae’s story! Emily has loved her ministry opportunity in Thailand. She loves to make a plan, set goals, and set it in action. It’s an unexpected joy to see the plan come together before your very eyes especially in a timely manner. She is used to the Latin American culture where things take a long time to happen. So, it has been so exciting to follow Mae and another woman named Ning on their journey to freedom from the sex trade industry in Chiang Mai, Thailand. God’s fingerprints (or as Emily calls them, “God winks”) are all over this story. It’s so compelling…I can’t begin to tell it like Emily….so read it and be touched. She wrote it in real time…we were all hanging on… waiting each day for the next portion…read them all beginning with Part 1 from the following: She Has A Dream: Mae’s Story (Part 1) at http://emilytuttle.theworldrace.org/?filename=she-has-a-dream. And her teammates, Tiffany’s blog : Life for Sale: Only $100 at www.tiffanyprater.theworldrace.org and Joy’s blog: Love at the Kitty Cats Bar: Part 1 at www.joyrobertson.theworldrace.org are also very telling about this drama.

It’s exhilarating to be involved in such life-changing events…..to be partnered with God in what He is doing in His kingdom here on Earth, as it is in Heaven. Any given day, as we pray for God to work and intervene in lives and governments, we are part of the grand scheme…..but sometimes, God allows us to play more of a key role in a miracle He is performing….and that’s as good as it gets! Emily and her team felt this way about their time in Thailand….with Emmi at Lighthouse in Action, and the friends they made at the Kitty Cats Bar.

I know they have been changed forever……and so have I…
