Today I thought "What am I going to make for dinner." How quickly I had forgotten. Of course Beans and Rice. Tonight We read a little blurb about what it would be like to be a child in Africa as we have and will be doing for the week. One part that really caught Christopher's attention was that some children have to bring their own toilet paper to school. Such a boy thing. Matthew is still struggling with wanting to eat beans and rice at all, he understands that people are eating it all over the world and some not even that, but his question is "well why do I have to eat it, I don't even like it anyways." Ok so it's not settling in quite yet but that's ok this is all about awareness. He did say "Mommy can you see those babies skeletons because they don't have food." So he gets a little part of it.
"Fear is a self imposed prison that will keep you from becoming what God intends for you to be. You must move against it with the weapons of faith and love." Rick Warren

Every 3 seconds a child dies from hunger 1..2..3.. a child just died. What a sobering reality that the lack of something that seems so basic to me causes millions to die. 1..2..3..my heart grieves.
