Dear God . . . My mother always has excuses for not going to church!
I know you're concerned, Eldy, and it's wonderful that you are. Sometimes adults make excuses when they're afraid. But, little friend, you can be a great example for your mother! This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. Very often, it's a child like Eldy who brings her family to Christ. As we get older we get set in our ways! But a child — they'll take risks — to believe, to trust in God. Just in the past three months, more than 30,000 Compassion children made a profession of faith. And many of them have taken their new-found faith home and shared it with their families. What you do to bring a child to Christ — is the gift of a lifetime! This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion to a child in your world!
