Jesus, cast a look on me. Give me sweet simplicity. Make me poor and keep me low. Seeking only Thee to know.

Francis Chan is cool.

"why is my life more valuable than [an abandoned] baby's? Someone asked me recently why I don't save money for emergencies, or retirement. My answer was how can I justify saving for myself "just in case" something happens to me when something IS happening to so many already. 29,000 kids will die today of preventable causes. If I'm to love my neighbor AS myself, why spend so much time worrying about me?"

  1. Why spend time worrying at all? God's will is done, pray that you are in it! I'm not trying to denigrate your calling to help these children at all, but just adding (with an AMEN!) to what you are saying that we should be in God's will and if he calls us to help children like these, we should move quickly to answer his call; but all the while we should remain in his will.

    Love ya sis!
