Dear God . . . My classmates say I'm ugly! Am I?
Sweet little friend, take it from someone who knows — classmates and little brothers like girls to think they're ugly! You're a beautiful young lady! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. Children being "kids" is why I love working with them. I have a crazy way to remind myself of my calling to be an advocate for children. I have an intermittent ringing in my ear. Every time I hear it, I use it as a wake-up call for children. I look around for a child I can somehow bless! Or I pray for the cause of children in the world. What's irritates you? A barking dog, a honking horn? Make it an opportunity to pray for a child! This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion for a child in need!
