Mutilated Christian girl, 10, forgives attackers 'They were out of their minds, they do not know the love of Jesus'
"Christmas" she says, " is a time to thank the baby Jesus who saved me from the fire and saved my face which was disfigured and wounded."
This is a traumatic time for Christians in this part of India.
"Hindus have offered money, food and alcohol to anyone who murders Christians and destroys their homes – especially pastors. Thousands of homes and churches have been destroyed, and Christians have been forced to flee the violence. Many have been doused with kerosene and torched after refusing to renounce their Christian faith." (World Net Daily).
Nayak said: "[W]e forgive the Hindu radicals who attacked us, who burned our homes," she told Asia News. "They were out of their minds, they do not know the love of Jesus. For this reason, I now want to study so that when I am older I can tell everyone how much Jesus loves us. This is my future."
What an amazing witness and beautiful faith this little girl has. Praise God for her faith and determination and pray that her witness will have impact opn those who persecute her.
