Dear God . . . Do you have hurricanes in heaven? It destroys our crops?
Oh Desire, in heaven you won't have to worry about hurricanes or storms. It will be a perfect place for you with your heavenly Father! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. The prayers we feature every day on Speak up with Compassion — are from children just like your children — except they are constantly reminded each day that disaster can strike at any moment. If it's not a hurricane, it's disease, or the violence of wars. How many children do you know who would ever have to pray a prayer like this one? It breaks my heart. Pray with your little one this evening. And when you do, include a child in poverty in your prayer. God knows where they live! This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion — pray for children in need!
