Millions of people dying from simple diseases we have the medications to fix and heal but are too wrapped up in our office cubes to take notice
I dont know about you but everything above creates an unbelievable amount of conviction within my heart. i have seen things i will never forget, that in itself sounds like such a punishment, however i have been using it to see the world we live in as it really is. God has sent us to do his work, to love in his name, to feed the hungry and gide the blind. There is so much out there for us, Gods children to do so what are we waiting for? what are you waiting for?
