It's a lie...

I recently read this quote and just had to share. This is from Dr. Wess Stafford, former Compassion President:

 At its very core, poverty is a mindset that goes far beyond the tragic circumstances. 
It is the cruel,  destructive message that gets whispered into the ears of millions
 by the enemy Satan himself: "Give up! You don't matter. Nobody cares about you.
 Look around you: Things are terrible. Always have been, always will be. Think back.
 Your grandfather was a failure. Your parents couldn't protect or take care of you
. Now it's your turn. You, too, will fail. So just give up!"

Please don't allow this lie to continue to be told to these beautiful children who by no fault of their own find themselves in the grips of the destructive force of extreme poverty.  


These children no longer are listening to the lie that poverty tells them.  They are worthy. Someone does care for them.
