Kham Put, Thailand (EP).<\/i> Khun Paot, a 19-year-old girl, escaped the Khmer Rouge rule in Cambodia after an arduous journey with 100 others through miles of jungle, canals, mountains, and rivers. Standing between them and freedom were Communist soldiers, the elements, and a stretch of jungle ground covered with thorns. Most of the escapees were barefoot or wore flimsy thongs.<\/p>\n
A midnight-like darkness hampered the struggling group as it crossed a valley between two high mountain ranges. \u201cWe could see absolutely nothing,\u201d Paot later told a missionary, Maxine Stewart. \u201cWe didn\u2019t even know where to step.\u201d Suddenly hundreds of fireflies swarmed into view. Their glow made enough light for the people to see the path. The refugees reached the next mountain by \u201cfirefly light,\u201d said Mrs. Stewart in the April issue of the Commission Magazine.<\/p>\n
After Paot was transferred to Kham Put refugee camp, she was invited to a Christian meeting. \u201cI know that old man,\u201d she exclaimed at a picture on the wall of the chapel. \u201cHe is the one who led us and showed us the way to Thailand and freedom.\u201d She was pointing to a picture of Jesus.<\/p>\n
