"How could I not go"

We were speaking with Dave & Laura last night. He has worked in the inner city of Cincinnati, OH. "Over the Rhine" is the area that Dave lived and worked. Statistically, 1 in 4 residents in this area will be the victim of violent crime.

As he described visiting the area he looked around and saw all these kids outside and said without hesitation, "how could I not go and live there". Did you hear that? Most of us would say the opposite, but he saw something that we don't often see. He saw people that he could love and encourage and it was simple conclusion. GO!!!!

Will you go? Will you see and respond to needs? My prayer is that we would learn to run to help! See you out!
