I just finished reading Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier by Ishamel Beah (which takes place in Sierra Leone), and this morning I read about similar violence in Kenya. We have a tendency to think that nothing like this could happpen here in a “civilized” ‘Western” country, but New Orleans, riots in Los Angeles, and other events within my lifetime indicate that our American sin nature is just as active and just as treacherous as that of any African.
So, pray for Kenya. And pray for ourselves: “Lord lead us not into temptation. But deliver us from evil.”

I have this one in my TBR collection to read. It’s just so sad, what people do to each other.
I am so glad you have posted this and are calling people to action. Thank you for keeping everyone informed. Keep it up!
