Haiti

I can't tear my eyes away from the tv and other media these days. I talk with Jesus about this sense of helplessness I feel, this sense of hopelessness and frustration at the condition that Haiti is in... I was frustrated enough 3 years ago when I was there. I spent 2 weeks there...and it was heart breaking then to see the condition of this country and these people....

....and NOW? Really? I am just in disbelief. The country needed help years ago!

I think about it...what am I doing? It is times like this that I wish I had more useful skills other than making coffee and massaging...nursing, engineering, body builder, maybe I should have married that sugar daddy years ago and I could have shipped all our money to Haiti...

It is difficult to remember that it is not my skills that make the difference in times like this. It is the Lord, and the Lord is there in Haiti, I have seen and experienced him there with his children there...it is just so hard to imagine all of those children in so much pain and dying...I praise the Lord that they are still finding survivors...

Our Father, who is in heaven,

Hallowed be your name,

Your kingdom come,

Your will be done,

on earth as it is in Heaven...

Give us this day our daily bread

and forgive us our trespasses

as we forgive those who trespass again us

Lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil

For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory FOREVER.

Amen
