Sin




"The Mind that is set on the flesh is Hostile to God; for it does not submit to God's law,
indeed it cannot. Those who are in the flesh cannot please God."
Romans 8: 7-8

This woman was a fortune teller/soothsayer. She laid asleep on the street waiting for someone to come. I was glad she was sleeping b/c I couldn't help but stare at her situation. I'd never seen anything like it. I think I'm pretty naive. I'm sure stuff like this goes on here, but it was just so open and out there. In another picture I took, there was a sign in front of her someone had put up, I assume while she was sleeping, calling her names, with swear words and vulgarity. This kind of stuff is common place on the streets of Bangkok.

If I had more courage, (and we weren't off in a hurried pace to get to our destination) I think I would've liked to wake her up and quote Romans 8. I'm sure she wouldn't have understood me, nor I her, If I questioned her about Jesus Christ.
