Hundreds of unwanted babies are abandoned on the streets of Seoul, South Korea, every year by single mothers or parents of disabled babies. Awakened late one cold Autumn night by a neighbor who informed him that a baby had been left in a cardboard box outside his church, Pastor Lee Jong-Rak set up what he hoped would be a temporary "drop box" on the side of his home to save abandoned babies from death. He didn't really expect the box to be used. Now, he received 2 to 3 babies every day. Watch this moving trailer of a story that shows how love overcomes societal stigmas.

    I loved the video because it showed that the love of God is often times shown to us through ordinary people willing to do what He has commanded us to do. It's not the easiest way, but its so much better than living a selfish and and self-centered life and wasting the precious few years we have to make a difference. I thank God for this pastor and his wife and all of you who do make a difference.

    At the moment, with all the wars, violence and hatred in this world, a person could easily be inclined to mentally, emotionally and physically retreat from all the madness of the world. And yet, on seeing this small video of a truly good man, my heart was opened and so inspired that I just needed to say 'Thank you;'to the man in the video and to the person who made it.
