We All Can Do Something

There are times when I wish the world is free of all types of worries. That people are free from worrying about how to meet deadlines, pay their bills or complete chores. Other times my worries are more global, when my mind will not stop pondering on why little children have to die of cancer or other deadly diseases. Why people die from hunger in a world so rich. What about the fact that seniors are abused/neglected by their own children, relations, friends? Why is there so much violence, wars, riots, diseases and hardships all around our world today? I could go on and on, I don't think it will do any good to continue to ask these questions because they will continue to be part of our earthly existence, and cannot be attributed to one cause. However, it is not an attribute of a true christian to be indifferent to the pains and sufferings of our world 

Personally I think that since we are part and parcel of a global society, we should ask these questions. Yes we are definitely directly or indirectly affected by all the things happening around our world today and we should be involved in the efforts to create a just and better society, especially for future generations. Some people effectively use their public speaking skills to bring about positive changes. Others are better at organizing marches or campaigning for the election of those who have the gifts of leadership. Still others are great writers who inspire great changes by what the share or produce in movies. In some cases, generous people give their wealth for all kinds of charitable causes. Finally, there are those who have nothing but prayers and how much better our world has become as a result of their prayers. So let us always ask: What can I do to relieve the pain and suffering in world today. Yes everybody can DO SOMETHING! and nothing is insignificant.
