Give. Pray.


Does anyone else have trouble watching the newscast of the devastation in Haiti?  To say it is heartbreaking is an understatement.  Pray for that the relief workers will be able to get to where they are needed most.  Pray for the families that have been ripped apart.
My daughter is a Volunteer Coordinator for the American Red Cross. She and her fellow workers have been working around the clock to get aid to Haiti.  They are sending workers, food, medicine, and so many things that are needed. Now they just have to ahve a way to get them into the areas that are suffering.
There are two things we can do to help.  Give. Even a nominal amount will help. Pray. God hears every prayer.
An easy way to give is to text "Haiti" to 90999 to give $10 to the Red Cross. It will be on your next phone bill. There has been an enormous outpouring of generous and loving people that have done this.
Please take the time. Give. Pray.
"If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth." 1 John 3:17-18

  1. Hi Lori,
    First of all, thank you so much for reading my post and taking the time to comment. All animal cruelty is a tough issue, but I hope it will change someday. Although, I think when the Lord comes back, will be the day it's over.
    Second, thanks for the sweet comments on my furnirure.
    And last, 50's not so bad is it? I'll be 54 this year. I agree about sometimes feeling 20 and some days feeling 90. I sound like my grandparents sometimes. :)
