This past week we had what I consider a really good chapel. Every now and then we get lucky like that and a speaker will come in and deliver a message that resonates with me and inspires me. Thursday was one of those chapels for me. Dr. Scott Todd spoke on the issue of poverty. I gotta admit.. poverty is probably one of my least favorite subjects to hear a message on. I always just get so overwhelmed and feel helpless to the human cause and overall terrible about the luxury of my lifestyle. It doesn't matter how many times the people tell me that even I can make a difference. I don't believe them. I mean.. I still put forth my efforts but I'm still left feeling insignificant in the fight to end extreme poverty. But on Thursday I left feeling different. I felt hope. Scott presented what I considered to be a very compelling vision.. encouragement of how far we've come and hope for accomplishing what's left to be done. I hope you'll go to this website, watch the video and see what I'm talking about. I'd love to hear your thoughts. Leave me some comments or let's have a conversation sometime :)
