neat video... I hadn't seen that one yet. It still tears my heart out looking at so many little faces who may never know what it's like to have a mom and dad. I tried to explain it to someone the other day and I just can't put it into words. It's not just about being a family, it's about having someone to comfort you, lift you up, protect you, be there in the middle of the night when you think there are monsters under your bed. Who calms these children's fears? They're no different than our children except they have no one to make them feel like they are the most important and loved person on the planet. Sometimes their biggest problem is not scraping their knee when they fall down, but finding a way to ease the hunger pains in their empty tummies.
Sometimes I'd like to ask God why He allows poverty, famine and injustice when He could do something about it. But I'm afraid He might ask the same of me.
