It Can't Get Any Worse But It Does

I recently happened upon an article on CNN.com about the sexual abuse of children by aide workers in other countries. I am saddened and even sickened to read of these atrocities.

I wish I could say "I can't believe this is happening to these children who have already suffered so much" but the truth is, I can believe it. People, even those in positions of authority and/or assistance (or maybe more so in these positions), are sinful and prideful and wicked to the core. I am too, but with the help of Jesus Christ working in my life every day I strive to be different - be better.

Read this article if you think you can stomach it without your heart breaking (of course, maybe that's what we need to stand up against such things - knowledge and heartache and anger). And, say a prayer today for these hurting little people who seem to be taking attacks from every front - even the "safe" ones.
