come to the rescue.

"*****ssa ihminen saatetaan tappaa tuosta vain. Sen takia en voi valita vaihtoehtoa mennä takaisin. En ole saanut koskaan onnea *****ssa. Se ei ole minun maani, se on minulle helvetti. Haluan mahdollisimman kauas uskonnosta ja ******eista."

"In ****, a man can be killed anytime. That is why going back is not an option. I was never able to gain happiness in ****. It is not my own country, it is hell for me. I want as far as possible from religion and the *****ims."

- a boy, 17, asylum seeker in Finland, interviewwed in HS 12.07.2009

Oh Lord.
When will your bride open her hands and welcome these small ones,
who search for a safe place, who search for peace.
Come to the rescue!
You Lord, where a refugee as a baby. You know what it is to flee.
When will your bride welcome these children of yours,
whom you love and for whom you gave your life.
When will she love them as You Father love them.
To reach a hand and give bread,
to wash their tired and dirty feet.
To teach them,
to tell them not about religion
but of everlasting love.
To teach them of freedom in You.

May I open my door today,
please Lord, give me an opportunity to serve.
