the strength of our youth

Very often I forget how powerful kids can be. They are aware of much more than I give them credit for. They know what's right and wrong, they know pain, they know justice, they know about humanity and can handle subjects I sometimes think they aren't ready for.
One of the blogs I follow and an organization I feel passionate about is Love 146, which I've mentioned before. I just read the latest post, called "Labor of Love" and was moved by the story. Check it out here.
How encouraging it is to know that young people are using their voices and talents to bring awareness to issues like this.

I just heard about Love146 this summer. Awesome ministry - I'd going to have to learn more about it. Thanks for making us think and reminding us to pray.
