Aiesa … Our first Bible Story
.jpg?token=57ef6ac7f74dc35fa5ab3604464ec1f0)
“…Go, and do likewise.” Jesus
On Lisa’s first trip to Bangladesh, she watched as a small crippled girl, living in a courtyard visible from her bedroom window, sat alone in the dirt. Unable to walk, the little girl was often crying. She would crawl a short distance, scribble in the dirt, and cry some more. Occasionally, another child would arrive to feed her a bit of rice.
One evening, after the child’s parents returned from work, Lisa & Rose went to meet the family.
The father explained that their family lost everything in search of medical care for their youngest of 3 children. Her name was Aeisa, she was 8 years old and had been born with Cerebral Palsy. The family of 5 had hocked their village farm and travelled to Dhaka seeking medical treatment for Aeisa. Medical tests took all the family had and in return provided no medical treatment & no answers.
Left destitute and unable to regain the family farm, Aeisa’s brother and sister were forced into slave labor while both parents had to work as laborers, earning only enough each day to feed Aeisa and themselves. The family of now only 3 lived in a one-room “structure” made of tin and bamboo. Their beds were burlap sacks with thin blankets laid over the dirt floor.
That evening, Lisa asked God what she should do to help this family. God replied, “Do unto Aesia, what you would do for your own child.” Like the good Samaritan Jesus spoke of, Lisa provided Rose with the money and instructions to look after Aeisa and her family before returning to America.
When Lisa returned to Bangladesh 10 months later, All God’s Children had purchased back the family’s farm, built them a new house, brought home their other two children, and provided the needed medical care, therapy, and schooling for Aeisa. And Aeisa was thriving.
Aeisa went to be with God at the young age of 12 due to complications from Cerebral Palsy. But her family never stopped praising God & recognizing the care He showed them, calling Aeisa their “special child from God.” Aeisa’s story was the profound beginning of what would become All God’s Children, a Bible Story started by God, for God, and through God. For over 26 years, He has been profoundly faithful, using our “fish and loaves” to spiritually, physically & financially nourish the many needs of thousands of people in Bangladesh.
