I've seen the photograph before. It's an iconic image from the Vietnam War. When you look at it, you cringe and you're startled at the terrible, horrible consequences of war. You naturally think, "what an evil world we live in." Some would question the presence of a loving God in a world where children, helplessly caught in the middle of men's wars, are brutally burned by napalm.
But then you read the story of the girl in the photo. Her name is Kim Phuc. She is a believer, a follower of Jesus Christ, and her story is one of peace. I never cease to be amazed at how and who our God saves, and the compassion He shows to corrupt human beings. Even Kim needed a Savior, and He found her.
