So Christmas is coming up and I am in such a foul mood! ha. I don't get it.... Christmas.... yuck.
I am very thankful that we have challenged our youth to give up Christmas this year and give all the money they would spend/receive to a guy named Bernard so that he can become a physician and do amazing work in his village in Uganda. That means that instead of satisfying ourselves this season, we can help someone else... and make a huge change! That will be cool.
It hit me the other day, I need to do more. I am barley living right now. I make plenty of money, I eat as much as i want, I have no fear. Why? because I don't live by faith. Bottom line. Sad huh?
I never think about the fact that almost EVERY time I buy a candy bar, I am supporting slavery in some other country. Most of the time when I drink a cup of coffee I am supporting slavery. Yet, more often than not, I'll support slavery because of accessibility and lack of knowledge about what I am buying.
How sad is that?
I was made for more than this....
