“But thanks be to God
God alone made it possible for you to be in Christ Jesus. For our benefit God made Christ to be wisdom itself. He is the one who made us acceptable to God. He made us pure and holy, and he gave himself to purchase our freedom.
This is what the Lord Almighty says
This is what the Lord Almighty says: 'Administer true justice; show mercy and compassion to one another. Zechariah 7:9 Karrion was five days old, and she was dying. She was born in the south of Sudan as her mother tried to return home from the violence in the north. Though starving, Karrion refused her mother's breast and curled against her to die. One look at Karrion's tiny face and a decision was made-we could not lose this one. We made it in time, thank the Lord! This time the story had a happy ending, but for thousands of others in violent, anti-Christian Sudan, the ending is not as joyous. Countless will starve to death unless the Church takes to heart its God-ordained role to be a source of help to a dying world.
