Michael Sampson: Can't imagine the terrors Ukraine children face
Posted by Ambassador T. Brikins
knowledge is power. My people perish for lack of knowledge God says.
In just three weeks since the February 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, over 1.5 million Ukrainian children have fled the country, seeking refuge from the unthinkable and often traveling alone to neighboring countries.
Another six million minors remain in Ukraine, many trapped with their families in Eastern and Southern Ukraine, spending the last days of the winter in outdated bomb shelters and cold basements.
Grassroots initiatives across the country are employing arts and crafts in a desperate attempt to mend some of the incalculable tolls on the mental and physical health of the youngest Ukrainians. The Ukrainian media Ukrayinska Pravda gathers drawings of the war as seen through the eyes of Ukrainian children.

Any and every effort invested to stop this war is welcomed. What is clear from the multiplier effects and consequences of this war is that no nation is really free from from its devastating social economic damages. Consequently 1Timothy 2:1-2 has become most realistically sensible as an order to practice. Apostle Paul says, ‘’I exhort, therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quite and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty’’.
This time calls for Believers to turn to their stronghold because only the known truth can set free. What are these truths?
