Dear God. . .What color is your skin? Are you like us?
Diana, when I was a little boy in Africa, I wondered the same thing! The Bible says, it's not that God is like us — but that God made us like Him! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. Let the children in your life know you're listening…that answering their questions is a priority. When you do — their confidence will soar! I'd like to give each child a sticker to wear that says, "Wess is proud of me, ask me why?" Use "good labels" for children — beautiful, smart, created by God. I'm convinced every child is lovingly knit in the mother's womb with the potential to accomplish great things — if only given a chance! This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion and make children a priority in your world!
