Sometimes, Lord, I feel totally overwhelmed by all the need in the world. There are so many people, and so many are in need—real need. I so often feel as if I need more and more, and I forget about all those who can only barely survive each day.
And some did not even survive today.
I feel as if there is nothing I can do to change these problems in the world. I feel that there is no way we can find for people to be satisfied throughout the world.
I know that as one person, who is willing to share my resources, I may not make much of an impact on the world’s economy.
I know that helping in the small ways I can will not change the economic disparities in the world.
But, I also know that I can change the world for at least some people who do not have enough to eat.
I can change the world for anyone I meet who does not know that they are loved.
I can, in small ways, change the entire world for a very few people.
And, I know that if I can inspire others to change the world for a few people, too, that the impact will be greater. And if we keep inspiring others to learn how to share—just like sharing as a tiny child—that maybe no one will ever have to cry for hunger again.
With you all things are possible, right?
Help us. There is enough for all, if we only share.
Help us.
Amen.
