Dear God … Why doesn't my father keep his promises?
Katia, God is a Father who always keeps His promises. This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. Author Steve Brown tells the story of a father who said, "Son, jump and I'll catch you." When the boy jumped his father turned his back and let him hit the floor. Then his father said, 'Son. You've learned an important lesson. Never trust anybody — ever.'" But if we're willing to leap when God says "jump," we find we're caught in the arms of a Father who's never broken a promise … never abused His children … never let them go. God deeply loves the poor and the outcast. And He wants to love these children—through you! This is Wess Stafford. Speak Up With Compassion for the children in your world.
