Dear God . . . Are you invisible? My mother says you see everything!
You're mother's right, Ingrid! Even though we can't see God — He sees us; and little friend, He cares about everything in your life. This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. There are more than 400 verses in the Bible that speak to God's passion for the needy and His desire that we share that passion. But how does that work itself out in real life? For some it's taking in a foster child. For some it's teaching children in a shelter the books of the Bible or helping to serve a meal at a soup kitchen. Michael Card wrote a song that says, "In God's distressing disguise, He waits for us to surmise, that when we take care of the poorest of them, we've really done it to Him!" This is Wess Stafford Speak up -- with compassion!
