Compassion's 12 Days of Christmas
It’s amazing how much “stuff” my kids have! In fact, they have so much, my oldest doesn’t really have anything on his list!
The other day I heard a shocking statistic. Some children have to walk six hours for water a day, and most times that water isn’t even clean! So now when my kids complain about something they don’t have or some injustice in their lives, I just reply, “at least you don’t have to walk six hours for water.” THAT shuts them up quick!
There’s another way we can teach our kids about how blessed they are and how giving away as little as their weekly allowance can make a BIG change in someone’s life.
You might want to share this Christmas carol with your family this year! I’m going to share it with mine!
