As we continue to sit and watch the events unfold in Afghanistan, both as Christians and non-Christians, it is saddening. It is sad to see such chaos and fear. It is sad to think about the now extremely real danger Afghan women face if and when they will rightly stick up for their freedoms. Being as this is a informational site where we try to align bible verses with what people need for certain topics and times, we hope these prayers can reach anyone in Afghanistan to help them find strength to persevere.

Verses for Faith
