Dear God...


The devastation is so great...unimaginable suffering. Many people have died and many are trapped. Families have been destroyed, children are alone. The elderly and sick sit uncared for in the streets, nowhere to go. The poverty is immense and there is no end to this in sight.

Open doors and clear all obstacles so that many people can respond to the tugging of their heart to reach out to the people of Haiti. Help our nation to see examples of generosity that far surpass what we have been capable of in the past. Touch the souls of the desperate and give them peace and a hope to cling to. Remind us to pray, to act, and to remember.

Amen

A tragedy such as this, of Biblical proportions, is so hard to wrap the mind around. I feel so helpless...but we can always offer up our prayers.

What a beautiful prayer...from your thoughts to God's ears.
I hope the Haitians know how the human race loves them and despairs for them right now.

Dear Lord,I'm in agreement with this prayer. You've promised where two or more can agree, it will be given. Thank you that you are a God who cares for each and every individual. Amen.
