What if I lived here?
Instead of here.
What if this was our family vehicle?
Instead of this.
What if the fact that we have a vehicle is an unattainable reality for most?
What if this was MY child's bed?
What if our pot of soup for our dinner would be consider a week's worth of meals for a family in another part of the world?
What if my this was where I prepared our food?
And this our water to drink?
What will I do when confronted with these images? Am I willing to DO anything? Willing to sacrifice something? Will I sit idly by? Saying I have enough to do already. Will I turn away and pretend it doesn't exist? What will God say when I stand before Him?
"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'There is no commandment greater than these." ~Mark 12:30-31
Are they really my neighbor 1/2 a world away?
"Do not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your power to act."
~Proverbs 3:27
