Can working as individuals enable us change this world?
Related to country: Uganda


Idon't think we can achieve it as required. We can really solve this problem by developing strategic partnerships. We can join hands to care for the parentless and disadvantaged children and other poor people of communities.

In John 5:1-11 we learn about the story of the miraculous catch of fish.
When the disciple fishermen had done what Jesus had told them, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. So they motioned to their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

The Lord gave the disciple fishermen such a huge catch, and the only way they could bring it in was by a partnership.

One of the critical components in developing a solution for caring for the disadvantaged children and other deprived community people is to begin to work together.

The Bible teaches us in James 1:27 that:
“Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”

God's compassion for the poor, the hurting, the refugee, the desperate, lonely abandoned child or widow is a reflection of who He is. He really does genuinely care and seeks a solution to their dilemma.

His solution is to ask us, his people to do it for Him. He is the Father of the fatherless. He is the husband to the widow and He is the provider of every need.

In His wisdom and sovereignty he has chosen to call us to do this for Him. He enables us and provides for us so that we can reach out to those in need for Him. Whatever we do for one of these we do for Him.

We must enter into community life clothed with love. We must engage with the community practically to bring Hope, Joy, Healing and Life.
