About This Quote
What makes our witness to Christ strong is our ability to see and embrace the realities of our neighbor’s difficulty. We should not callously ignore the pain or suffering of others. Instead, we should look at it and pray for them in a way that empowers us to tell about Christ. When we do this, we are doing God’s work and making a difference in this world today.
