We are constantly amazed at the need for the Word of God throughout Asia. We recently met an 85-year-old believer in Myanmar (Burma), who told us, "I was born in December 1931 and grew up in a Karen Christian family. My parents were very poor so I started first grade when I was 13 years old. There was only one Bible in our village and it belonged to our pastor. I really wanted to have my own Bible, so I have been praying to God for a Bible since 1945, when I was 14.Whenever I saw the Bible in Pastor's hands, I really wanted to have my own copy. So I kept praying.I was very hungry for the Word of God and I wanted to read it, but there were no Bibles. This was truly heartbreaking for me and I became discouraged for a time and quit praying to have a Bible. But then a pastor gave me the Book of Mark from the Bible. I was elated and I read it whenever I could. I almost memorized the whole book. It strengthened my faith. By the grace of God, today I received the full Bible from you for free. This is amazing. Only God can do this. God answered my 71 years of prayers for a Bible. God is so good to me. My favorite Scripture is Psalm 23. Thanks to all who donated, supported, and brought to us this precious Bible. I will always read it, because I live alone. God bless you all."Asia Harvest provided hundreds of thousands of Bibles to hungry Asian believers each year through our Asian Bible Fund.
