Dear God . . . My birthday is Christmas Eve! You know that, don't you?
He sure does, my friend! And God is so pleased to have you as one of His own children. Happy birthday, buddy! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. There's nothing more fun than celebrating a special occasion with a child! It can make all the difference. One child advocate I know makes a big deal out of her child's birthday. Not with expensive gifts, but with lots of attention. There are children around you who need to know they matter. Maybe not with a special party, but how about an invite to join you and your family for an outing during Christmas break? Remember, kids don't care how much you know, until they know how much you care. This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion to a child in your world!
