This semester I am participating in an internship with Children's Hunger Fund. I work in the Ministry Development, with SoCal Mercy Network Coordinator Steve Meister. So far it has been amazing, I have served at CHF in the past by packing boxes, but it has been great to start to learn how CHF functions in full circle. One of the goals of the internship is for me to develop a Biblical understanding of compassion. This last week Steve and I studied Genesis 3:17-19 and Romans 8:18-25. These passages cause me to realize that because of man's sin there will always be poverty, hunger, sickness, etc. But God is restoring man and creation, through the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. Only He will bring an end to hunger. So as a Christ follower and intern of CHF it is not my goal to eliminate hunger or poverty, but providing for the hungry and poor it is a means for with to bring hope to those who feel hopeless, by bringing them the hope of the Glory of God.
