I think that often times we are stuck thinking that we just are too far away to make a difference, or that what can my little amount of time or money do to help people so far away? But we can make a difference.
Meals in orphanages often times are only cents per meal. We go out to eat and spend $20 for 2 people and think we just ate pretty cheaply, and that same $20 could possibly feed the entire orphanage for a couple of days.
God has blessed us with so much and we need to be good stewards of all that He has provided. Can you imagine what the world would be like if everyone just has one less meal out and shared those funds with those who really need it? Can you imagine that literally the difference between life and death could be as little as $5? For us it doesn't seem possible, but it is true in so many cases.
Don't change everything you are doing tomorrow morning when you wake up, just make a small change and see what God does with the change, both for others and in you.
