Haiti


All I am is just a traveler,
With dirt on my hands.
All I have is dust in my pockets,
And you in the end.

Sometimes it feels like we're never gonna make it out alive.
When nightmares close us in.
Heartbeart, take me, away from all the troubles that I see,
Oh, it's all what we make it, it's all what we make it, oh.
Matt Hires-You in the End

My heart breaks for this country, for those across Port Au Prince and surrounding areas that are suffering so much. I have compassion for those in this country and all over the world that are on edge, waiting to hear from loved ones, waiting for hope, waiting. It's devastating, and heartbreaking as the entire world watches this catastrophic event unwind. There have been stories of hope, and there has also been extreme loss of life. I think if anyone doesn't feel something towards this situation then your heart needs to be softened. Haiti already an extremely poor nation lost the little but of structure they had. If you can donate your money. If you don't have some money, then pray. Either way pray because this isn't going away overnight.

Thank you God for being all powerful. Thank you Jesus that you died on the cross for my sins, and for every one elses. I pray that you would move on behalf of the people of Haiti. Open up aid, open up provisions, sustain the survivors, bring into light those covered under buildings and trapped, deliver them God. Just like in Exodus 3:7 you had compassion of your people, and you were concerned with their suffering, I pray that you would hear the cries and prayers that people all over are praying. Please God use this for good, turn this around, bring hope.
