What a depressing movie. I can't believe that things like this actually happen in the world. Watching it makes me feel helpless and powerless. I wish I had a billion dollars and endless amounts of influence so that I could do something to change things for the people of Darfur in the Sudan.
But what can we really do? We can send over money and food and missionaries, but what does that really accomplish? Does that change the cycles of violence and the political ideologies that lead to the genocide? What can a normal person actually do to help? Praying feels meaningless. Caring feels pointless. The situation feels hopeless.

Praying isn't hopeless. God sees what's happening. All over the Bible is proof that God's heart is to see justice.
