Sometimes it is overwhelming



I am sure most of you know about the awful drought and famine facing Ethiopia and most parts of Africa. It is so hard to imagine families going DAYS without something to eat or drink. I can not imagine the pain and stress a parent faces seeing their child hungry. Starving. It is happening all over the world. Guatemala, Ethiopia, Haiti, and right here I imagine there are children who go hungry, although help is close by. In Ethiopia families walk and walk with no help in sight. It is really overwhelming to think about the need out there. Pick ONE way you feel comfortable helping. Someone or something. Just ONE small way. It will make a difference.
