Yesterday I wrote about Slavery. I’m preparing for a bike ride in July that’ll raise awareness and funds for International Justice Mission.
I’m riding with a team. We want to advance IJM’s vision: To rescue thousands, protect millions and prove that justice for the poor is possible.
It’s a big dream.
A DREAM is a God-inspired desire to use your gifts and passions to serve and change the world.
It’s awfully easy to dismiss that kind of dream as being too big. Can eighteen people on bikes really change the world?
I believe we can. One bike ride won’t end worldwide slavery or sex trafficking. It won’t free 27 million slaves or rescue 2 million children trapped in worldwide sex trade.
But we can help a few individuals. If you’re thinking that doesn’t really change the world, think about even one individual freed from these horrible injustices. Freedom surely changes the world for that person.
We can’t fix the world—that’s God’s job. He only asks us to do what we can, where we are, with what we have.
So we’re riding bikes to chase a dream.
That’s how we change the world.
