Troubling news from Ethiopia

Read this article from CNN that reveals the plight of thousands of Ethiopian children.

I have been reading Ethiopian news with some regularity and have a growing passion for this remarkable and legendary country. I hope to post news that I find interesting from time to time.

It is in times like this that I pray the church (that I myself) would sacrificially serve and meet needs.

Jesus commanded those of us who call ourselves Christians, in John 13, to love one another as He has loved us. Through this sacrificial love for one another the wider world begins to recognize us as followers of Jesus. It begins with love - love that is active - love that moves.

Love is as love does.

Is it in me?
Lord may it be,

I still need to find time to finish my message... It has been a long week of trying to put it together. The well is a bit dry... Garage Sale boy, sd
