Dear God . . . Would you help my parents to know you?
Addis, God would so love to have your parents know Him. And what pleasure He must get in hearing and answering your precious prayer. This is Wess Stafford, President of Compassion International. Last year in Africa we heard the incredible story of Sara, a young girl in profound poverty who wanted desperately for her drug-addicted mother to know Jesus. Week after week, this little girl would ask her mom to join her at the little village church. She always refused. But Sara never gave up and finally her mother accepted Christ. Today mom is a very successful interior decorator who calls Sara, "My little pastor!" Henry Ward Beecher said, "Children are the hands by which we take hold of heaven." This is Wess Stafford. Speak up with compassion for the children in your world!
