"Though the Lord is exalted, yet He regards the lowly" Psalms 138:6. We see this all through the Bible, our amazing Creator and King reaching out to the needy, and even using the poor and insignificant of this world to accomplish His great purposes. Probably any sincere worker for the Lord will witness this throughout their lifetime: GOD's great love reaching down to the most broken, poor and undeserving (which includes ALL of us). These villagers have just about nothing of this world's possessions, and don't aspire to much more than that. But still He has loved them. The 2 women have given their hearts to the Lord. We tried to put the 3 bigger kids in the photo (2 boys and 1 girl) in a better school, but because of fear in the children and lack of support from their fathers, they didn't stay in school but a few weeks. 90% or more of the men in their culture will be alcoholics, abuse their wives, and take little care for their children...but still He loves them, so still we reach out to them. The tallest girl, Padma, has had a large growth on her back for years. Please pray for her, and for a move of the Holy Spirit among these precious souls.
