Dear God...Can you make my country peaceful again? I get scared.
I'm so sorry you're scared, Ika. You have such a gentle heart. Just know that God will comfort you, protect you, and care for you — because you are His child! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. Albert Einstein said, "The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who don't do anything about it." Talk openly with a child in your Sunday school class about what scares him or her. Your willingness to listen will send a powerful message. Share Jesus' love from the Bible — with verses that encourage trust in their heavenly Father. Remind a child today that Jesus said: "Let the little children come to Me!" This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion — for a child in your world.
