Dear God . . . Do you really listen to my prayers?
He sure does, my young friend! He cares about you more than you can imagine! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. These prayers that we bring to you each day are from real children living in some of the poorest conditions around the world. You might think they struggle with faith in God. But on the contrary, we've discovered people in poverty often experience greater levels of joy and fulfillment in life than others, because they see God's hand at work up close and personal! What a great way to teach our children about faith! Volunteer at a shelter for hurting families this year … and take your kids along. Lead by example! Your children will follow in faith. This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion for a child in your world.
