I could only speak a few words of Fula, a language closely related to Fulani. The grammar of the language totally escaped me. I was conversant in Mandinka however. And they had parts of a written Bible that I was able to read. This is good news for the Fulani.
Pray for Aqeel, Samina and others injured in the blast who are still recovering. Pray for them to be encouraged through their church, the Scriptures and the Holy Spirit. Pray for continued healing and restoration of their lives.
Lord be with these and others in Pakistan as they continue to recover and just deal with life after the bombings of 2013. Prevent from such events occurring again. In Christ name, Amen.
