Seth Barnes - This is what wrecks me

Jumbo Gerber is our director in Swaziland. He just wrote about the following four people:

Mamba (age 7) was hanged by his stepfather

A little baby boy was found this week in a long drop toilet

A mom sleeping with her two children in the rain after her house was blown down by a storm

The mother of 7 children who does not see an alternative to selling her body to provide for her children

The mother of seven wrecked him:

"Today I saw a mom that is at the end of her rope; a mom that is beyond desperate to try to do better so that her children would not be sent home from school for stealing other kids' food ... because their last meal was the previous day at the care point.

A mom who wants her children to be safe, warm and dry in their home. A mom who feels she is all alone and has nobody to talk to about her struggles, a mom that is blaming herself for the bad decisions she has made after her husband past away. A mom that knows she is a bad example for her older kids, because they know and see what she does.

I saw a mom who wants to change; a mom who, even in the most difficult circumstances, has not abandoned her children. I saw a mom who wants to do better; a mom who wants to leave her children a legacy."

And it wrecks me too. I think, "My problems are first world problems."

What wrecks you?
