100 words | Philippians 1:20

Yesterday in Sunday school, my group went over the story of the martyrdom of John and Betty Stam. They were the first missionary family to settle in China, with a young baby in their care. The family was captured by the red army when their city was attacked, and the couple was killed the next day. It’s quite a sad story, but in John’s letter to CIM before the execution, he included the verse: That Christ may be glorified whether by life or by death. (Philippians 1:20) That verse stuck out in my mind all day yesterday. Thought I’d share.

(ok… ending it on a happier note…here’s a giant lego head/box I saw at target yesterday…)
