IJM Cambodia Update!

When I signed on to facebook today, I saw this post from IJM's page... "Breaking news in CAMBODIA: Foreign pedophile sentenced to 8 yrs in jail. IJM's 5-yr-old client is safe at home w/ her family + continues to heal w/ IJM support."

Praise God. I knew about this case because my husband was there, but I can't write about things like this until they are over and "officially" released. We wouldn't want that little child in danger, right?

But I can mention it now. And here's my thoughts...

FIVE years old. FIVE. 5. So young. So small. So unfair.

This one got to me. I have a five year old. And the whole day Stephen was in court I was praying. When it was over, he told me that he didn't think he'd hear a guilty verdict. But alas, GUILTY and sentenced to 8 years in jail. God is just. Some say that punishment is too much or too little, but I know God is the Judge over all.

Here are some more press releases approved for me to show you from right here in Cambodia. Take a moment to read them and pray for the victims. Even after rescue, they have years to go before they will heal.
