Think of the children

Jesus loved the children. He wanted them to come to him even after his disciples had told them to go away. The Bible also tells us to care for widows and orphans. I often think of the children in this world who have no home. Many in Africa have been stolen from their families and sold into sex slavery or have been brainwashed by an army that would have them destroy their own parents. In many Asian countries baby girls are abandoned simply for being the wrong gender. Babies are aborted in this country just because they might have special needs. We as a people, as human beings, need to start speaking out against these crimes against humanity. We need to help these children as God called us to. We can send financial support, educate, and even adopt these children into loving homes where they can come to know the Lord, a father who will never abandon them and will love them always.
Pray for the children who have no home, no family, no one to say "I love you" to them at night and start thinking about what you can do to help. Imagine a world where everyone felt love. Wouldn't it be a better place?
