Dear God. . .Our neighbor drinks all the time—and hits his wife. It's very sad!
What a tender heart you have, Nadipudi! As men, God gives us the privilege and responsibility to protect our wives and children —n ever to harm them! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. Where there's excessive drinking — children are at risk — emotionally, physically and worse. They often live in constant fear. And they're certainly at higher risk of becoming alcoholics themselves. When you befriend a child, you have the potential to become their trusted friend. Someone to confide in. Make yourself available to a young boy, a young girl. Be properly informed — ready to suggest appropriate ways to help a child. It could save their life! This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion for a child at risk!
