Really hitting home...
Today she has a post up that really struck home with me. It's right on the mark, and it discusses when her faith moved from her head to her heart. At least that's the way it seems to me. I don't know her at all, nor have I ever met her, but my interpretation of the story in that post is about that event in her life.
This is the part that inspired me to take time at my office to go to my personal blog and write this post:
there is no excuse for us not to love - and therefore act - on behalf of those without. without food, water, healthcare, or freedom. the bible does not give us an option. we are told over and over again what we need to do, but we get lost in our burden of wealth and we forget.
we compartmentalize “poverty” and “injustice” as causes and don’t integrate serving those trapped in them in our minute-by-minute living, as our continual act of worship.
She then promotes blog action day and emphasizes the action. She suggests Compassion International, which is a fine organization. I personally support World Vision, but toMAYto, toMAHto as they say.
Go check out the post. And add her to your feed reader or whatever you use to track blogs. Trust me, it's worth your time.
