Stricken with Grief......
Friday, September 02, 2005 Edit This 0 Comments »
My heart is very heavy today as with other days about the travesty on the Gulf Coast. Particularly, I am indeed moved to tears about the situation in New Orleans. I understand that it's going to take sometime to get these people out of there but what about water? Can they get some water at the very least? Is it really that hard? I don't know that I am convinced that it is.
I am not going to sit here and play the blame game today (although I want to) but I realize that this is not going to change the condition of my heart. It's really sad and that is a drastic understatement that these people have to suffer the way they have been.
It is going on DAY FREAKING SIX and the people whose lives were spared are now dying.
Anyway, this is all very overwhelming to me and it's hard for me to think that I can make even thee smallest difference but I do plan on volunteering locally with the Red Cross and when I can get away, you best believe that I will be joining my friend who is leaving for New Orleans early next week.
Will you make a difference? Visit the Red Cross at www.redcross.org or Fema at http://www.fema.gov/ to see how you can help?
And if you can nothing else but pray to the Lord Jesus for mercy do that!
