Take Courage In A Chaotic World

When we feel overwhelmed by the state of our world, we can take courage. Jesus, who defeated death is still at work. Therefore our first response must be to pray. Prayer makes a difference. It works. Whenever a "World Vision" enters a community or responds to a disaster, we consistently find that God has been at work long before we arrived. He is changing hearts and responding to needs—often in miraculous ways. Prayer allows us to stand alongside the work that God is already doing.

Christian organizations are on the ground making a difference in all many places and vairous ways. Support their work. Volunteer, donate, pray, advocate for their cause. Knowing that God is at work and you are joining him can transform our attitude toward situations that might otherwise seem hopeless. Maybe we can't fix a problem all by ourselves, but we can make the situation better for someone.
