Poor, Poor Africa

As my heart is continually pulled more and more toward the crisis of Aids, hunger and poverty in Africa, I found this article profound... especially one of the last thoughts:
"As Westerners we obviously have our own responsibilities in this world, such as living simply and equitably with the rest of the world, as well as pursuing justice and human rights in every facet of our lives. Whether it’s buying a cup of coffee, voting for the next president or actually leaving our country to lend a hand to someone that needs it, we have moral obligations that the kingdom of God requires of us." - Joel Hoffman
