compassion's blog

please visit compassion international's blog.  
http://blog.compassion.com/
i stop here EVERY day.

to hear how God is working.  to see how little things are making a difference in a big way.  to hear stories of people climbing out of poverty with hope and dreams. to see pictures of children and their families and know that they have enough for today.  to see a silver lining in some very dark clouds.

it is too easy to forget all of the world that is struggling to make it through the day while we sit in our living rooms and minivans, picking up drive-thru because it was easier for us today...  this blog reminds me of how blessed we are and how God wants us to help others (and that is a small, easy thing to do!).

this blog is a starting point for me...first--to remember others, second--to move beyond remembering others to acting and doing something for others.  i love how God can use little things to motivate us and move us forward.  He is good.
