If you don’t want to be uncomfortable, don’t go here.
If you don’t want to weep, don’t go here.
If you want to see some beautiful pictures, go here.
If you want to read about an organization and a group of bloggers who are being changed, go here.
If you want to feel like you’re there with them, go here
If you want to behold God and see how you can make a difference, go here.
If you want to see how others can sing and dance in spite of their circumstances, go here.
If you want to gain a new perspective on your own circumstances, go here.
Because here you’ll find links to posts by some who are experiencing poverty up close and personal for the next week. They’re sharing sights and sounds and smells and tears and joys. They’re sharing their hearts.
Because they are beholding God in Kenya. They are beholding God in poverty. They are beholding God in the faces of children.
They are beholding God through Compassion.
I’m especially interested in this trip because we sponsor a child, a girl, here. I wish I was a part of it. But I am going vicariously.
You can, too.
Travel here.
Every day.
All week.
And experience discomfort. Let yourself weep and your heart break. Enjoy the photos. Behold God at work in the midst. And be challenged to join Him.
Here. Now.
I dare you.
