Because We Care

Is it worth it. . . really? Is it worth perpetuating the social conditions they live in and the pain they absorb knowing that our culture causes their pain and suffering? Do we turn our backs on those as the people of Israel did in the time of Jesus so many years ago?

Let me tell you, if we ignore what is going on, we will never see God’s works. We will attend our church service proudly and pat ourselves on our backs because we are doing His will and think that we are holy. And the poor are still suffering. And the poor are still dying without medical aid or proper food.

Is it worth it? No! the poor are still dying on the street right outside our church doors. We must wake up and see that we must no longer be entertained by them; I am changed by them; I am changed by them! I am woke! God woke me! I have left my comfort zone to kneel down with my brothers and sisters to pray with them; feed them; heal them, because God has asked me to do this. I do this because I care!
