Dear God . . . Do you love naughty children?
With all His heart, my little friend! But He doesn't want you to stay that way!
This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. There's gold in a child's heart — but you have to make it shine! Determine to teach children the importance of character. Make it your suggestion for this year's Vacation Bible School theme. Have summer camp counselors focus on character development. You can be a role model to help a child understand they have value to God and to you. Writer James Baldwin said, "Children have never been good at listening to their elders, but they've never failed to imitate them!" This is Wess Stafford. Train up a child in the way he should go. Speak Up With Compassion for a child in your world!
