October 15th is Blog Action Day.
This year, the topic is poverty. Check out the video to learn more…
Here’s what Leo at Zen Habits had to say about it…
“What do you have to do to participate? Do you have to take a pre-determined stance on Poverty? Not at all. All you have to do is blog about Poverty on Oct. 15, 2008 … and do it in any way you like. If you want to talk about the causes of Poverty, feel free to do so. If you want to write about what people can do, or about the history of it, or about how it relates to technology or the environment or simplicity or happiness or business or whatever you like to blog about … please do so. You can write whatever you like … as long as you blog about it on Oct. 15.”
I strongly encourage you to get involved. Just a casual glance makes it painfully obvious how big the need is in the world. And this isn’t just a physical issue – it’s a spiritual issue.
What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food.If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.”Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.”
