Does It Matter?

If a child is hungry, does it matter where in the world he is before you feed him?

If a child is cold, does it matter where in the world he is before you clothe him?

If a child is homeless, does it matter that someone travels from the U.S. to give him a home?

I don't understand the rage that I've witnessed some people express just because they don't agree with the issue of international adoption. Yet they sit behind their computers and blog about their disgust instead of actually doing something to make a difference.

If you're able and willing to care for those less fortunate than you are, look past the borders and help where your heart leads you to do so.

Food for thought.... I just read something that inspired me to put the above lines together.
