There are over 2 billion children in the world. Half of them live in poverty, living off of less than $1.00 a day. 10,198 children will die from hunger today. Each child was created by God and no matter where they live or what their circumstance, they should be free to be all God intended them to be. They live in their own part of the world and God loves each and every one of them. We have been blessed to be a blessing to these children. How can we help? The numbers are too many. 100 million children have no access to an education--60 million of those children are girls. There are things we can do to help. We can pray for these precious little ones. We can advocate on their behalf--telling others what needs to be told even though, often times, no one wants to hear. We can go to the least of these, care for them, bless them, provide for them, teach them. It hurts knowing there are so many children in desperate situations around the world and even in our own country.
We need to meet their needs both spiritually and physically--simultaneously--they go hand in hand. These children have real lives, real hopes and real dreams. What am I going to do to help meet those needs and help make those dreams come true?
