Bangkok

Isaiah 54:4-8: '“Fear not; you will no longer live in shame. Don’t be afraid; there is no more disgrace for you. You will no longer remember the shame of your youth and the sorrows of widowhood. For your Creator will be your husband; the Lord of Heaven’s Armies is his name! He is your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, the God of all the earth. For the Lord has called you back from your grief— as though you were a young wife abandoned by her husband,” says your God. “For a brief moment I abandoned you, but with great compassion I will take you back. In a burst of anger I turned my face away for a little while. But with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,” says the Lord ,your Redeemer."

I pray that the people of Bangkok will not be afraid or ashamed. Prevent them from being confused or embarrased in their search for you. Cause them to forget the shame of their youth and the shame of widowhood. May the people of Bangkok know you, their Maker, as husband. May they know you, the Lord All Powerful, the Holy One and the Redeemer of the Thais. Gather the people of Bangkok with your great kindness and unending loving kindness. Thank you for calling them to be yours.
