So many times I see messages on social media asking me to copy and paste if I support a cause. The message is beautiful; sharing the information is lovely. Put action to your heartfelt post (I told you wouldn’t leave this behind).
Every month of the year shines a light on the symptoms, treatments, and research of a problem or social issue that we face every day. Illnesses from cancer and Alzheimer’s to developmental problems like autism to suicide awareness and the list continues. We are confronted by these issues daily; make no mistake, no one is immune from the ravages that any of these illnesses and disorders can wreak on our lives.
The next time someone asks you to share or post a message in unity for a cause, pause and think how you can make a difference in the fight. Instead, maybe you can share symptoms of the illness and how to get help in order to be diagnosed early. Donate to a reputable non-profit that helps or even participate in a fundraising or awareness activity. Be the hands and feet. This is how we make a difference in the fight against these cruel illnesses, disorders, and addictions. (Matthew 25:34-40)
