I just noticed that North Korean strongman Kim Jong Un has updated his Facebook relationship status from "It's Compricated" to "Honerymooning".

I’ll pray that his change in status somehow improves his receptiveness to the Gospel and that God would be glorified in the tremendous impact his salvation would have to the entire world.
Psalm 19:14
May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be pleasing in your sight,
O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.

Soon he'll be bringing a new generation of crazy into the world.
Hear the word of the Lord, O nations, and declare it on the islands from afar, and say, "He Who scattered Israel will gather them together and watch them as a shepherd his flock."

Ok. That was bad.

All kidding aside, North Korea is one of the most repressive places in the world. Those people need freedom.

Agreed.
To watch the populace "mourn" Dear Leader was a real eye popper. How, oh how could anyone think that was real? But if they were caught not "crying" they were punished.
Genesis 12:3
Bwhahaha. sorry that had me laughing out loud!

Get on my horse.
We have a member of our church who is Korean and I believe some of his (extended) family was caught on the wrong side. He was asked to pray for North Korea (well all of Korea) several months ago, which he did in Korean (we had a general gist of what he was saying based on an outline of what he intended to pray about). I am certain he diverged from the intended message a bit, but that was one of the most powerful prayers I may have ever heard, regardless of the language barrier.
It is a sad state of affairs. As I recall, North Korea used to have a massive population of Protestant Christians in the early to mid 1900's.
It is only the cynic who claims “to speak the truth” at all times and in all places to all men in the same way, but who, in fact, displays nothing but a lifeless image of the truth… He dons the halo of the fanatical devotee of truth who can make no allowance for human weaknesses; but, in fact, he is destroying the living truth between men. He wounds shame, desecrates mystery, breaks confidence, betrays the community in which he lives, and laughs arrogantly at the devastation he has wrought and at the human weakness which “cannot bear the truth”. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, in Ethics.

There are hints that the young Kim may hold reformist ideas. If so, it'll probably be baby steps, but even that will be an improvement.

I'll believe it when I see it. Bashir Assad was also educated in the west, a "new generation" who would bring "reformist ideas". He turned out to be a petty thug just like his dad.
Human rights in North Korea. Just terrible.

Good point. Arab and communist nations have this in common - a pitiful track record for sure.
Unhappy is he who mistakes the branch for the tree, the shadow for the substance.

Honestly adding him to your facebook can only be a bad choice.

I'll probably unfriend him. You should see his posts....a real drama queen.
