In whatever situation you are in, the answer is at the cross.
The underground railroad in China is found by looking for the Cross. Christians all along the way are helping people to be free from North Korea. The National Geographic Article is online and part of the quote was read at the beginning of the sermon.
"Crossing the Tumen was easy compared to what happened next," Black said. Like White, Black had been tricked by his broker, sold to a Korean-Chinese gangster to carry drugs and money back and forth across the Tumen. "I refused to help," said Black, who was otherwise vague about how he survived those early days in China. His darkest time followed the sale of his girlfriend to an aging addict, after which Black lost contact with her. Eventually Black heeded the advice whispered among defectors: "Head for a cross." Thirty or more churches around Yanji offer temporary refuge to North Koreans, along with food and clothing. Their pastors stay out of trouble as long as they don't openly proselytize or draw attention to their support for the defectors.If you need a little humility, read these accounts of the Crucifixion.
Matthew 27; Mark 15; Luke 23; John 18:28-40, 19:1-42.
NOTE: If you have a Thomson Chain reference bible a nice Harmony of the Gospels is on page 1679, Topic number 4308a. The specific ones relating to Good Friday are found on page 1682 with maps of events on page 1689-1690 [Topics 4308-g and 4308-h].
