Dear God. . .Will I have parents in heaven?
Oh you will, sweet friend! And your heavenly Father will be there to wrap you in His arms of love! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. Over the last decade more than 1 million children have been orphaned or separated from their families by armed conflict. 1.2 million are taken from their families in sex trafficking and millions more orphaned by AIDS. Children deprived of parents are more vulnerable to abuse and disease. That is not God's plan for His children. His plan is that you and I will see to their care, love and protection. Be a child sponsor. Volunteer as a child advocate. There are children in foster care who need a special friend. Be their voice! This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion for a child in need!
