Painting from the Norm Bergsma Collection
~The Crossing~
Slowly he crosses the river
Stepping ever so carefully as he goes
Nervously onward, his life he would give
For his men as each soldier knows
This is the Point Man
Their lives in his hand
As he crosses the river
In this distant war torn land
Often he is the first to die
One giving his life for his brothers
While crossing this dangerous watery field
His thoughts...not for him but for others

~Point Man International Ministries~
"We do not want you to be uninformed, brother, about the hardships we suffered in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and He will deliver us. On Him we have set our hope that He will continue to deliver us, as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the gracious favor granted us in answer to the prayers of many."
