The Times of Israel is reporting that Malala Yousafzai is now walking for the first time since she was shot by Taliban gunmen. She is also communicating by writing. Unfortunately, they are also saying that the bullet wound has become infected.

15-year old Pakistani shooting victim Malala Yousufzai, who is recovering in Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham, England, after being attacked and shot in the head by Taliban gunmen in Pakistan for advocating education for girls.

Since the Taliban is still making death threats against her life, it would be best for her and her family if they were to find refuge in another country. Pray for her safety, and that she will have the opportunity to hear the gospel. Pray that God’s will is done in her life. We know that it is His will that all would come to the knowledge of Jesus Christ as Savior.

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. II Peter 3:9
