What do you do when you find you heart continually breaking because of something that is happening in our world?

How do you handle hopelessness–the sense that there is nothing that can be done?

Can love really speak an international, multi-“religious” language?

I am faced with an opportunity to go to Pakistan in the next couple of weeks. The project would be to hike to the mountain villages, find people who are trapped and build shelters for them. They might survive the winter.

Pakistan is a closed country to foreigners, yet they are throwing open their boarders because they can’t not. Is it possible that Jesus-followers could go into the heart of the Muslim world–in the neighborhood of where Sept. 11, 2oo1 was likely planned–and love people?

Pray for me–it’s decision time.
