Chris.
The Lord knows our works. This can be a very comforting statement of Scripture for those people who are worshipping the Lord in a very difficult environment. Sometimes we receive "prayer bulletins" from such people and we can hardly understand their situation. The most important thing is that we can pray according to their prayer requests and thank God for their willingness to serve Him in such difficult circumstances.
