Dear God. . .You can create us — why don't you make us be good?
It's a great question, little friend. God wants us to be good! Out of love and obedience to Him, He wants us to choose what's right. This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. Children are surrounded by negative influences. Many don't even realize they have alternatives. That's why I'm so high on church camping programs, Pioneer Club, Boys and Girls club, Awana programs and places where children at risk are welcome. You may not be able to volunteer on a regular basis. How about using a vacation day to chaperone a field trip? Or a Saturday helping out in the concession stand at a game. Organizations need volunteers. Find out what's going on in your community, and step up! This is Wess Stafford. Choose to speak up with compassion for the children in your world.
