Dear God. . .Can you forgive my sins?
Oh He can, Anderson! In fact, He already has! Jesus died for our sins on the cross so we could be forgiven, once and for all. This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. That little guy in your class at school, the boy in your youth choir? You know the one! Always just a little more mischievous, a little harder to corral when it's time to settle down. Jesus said to His disciples: "Don't despise these little ones!" The Message version of the Bible says He was irate, angry. "Don't you dare despise these little ones." To redeem a child for Christ is one of God's highest callings! Don't give up. You're working hand in hand with the love of God's heart — His children! This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion — for a child in your world.
