Haiti

Please keep praying for Haiti; there is still so much suffering and major after effects going on. People suffering, People searching, People with no food, no water, no shelter, and many who may have it now that will be without very soon. We must keep praying that more are found alive, that more receive medical treatment, that all feel God's ever loving arms around them in this their hardest time.

Two sites I want to point out today. One of an American Family living in Haiti, living and breathing every moment of this tragedy. They have a blog that gives you such heartfelt glimpses into their world now after the earthquake.

Another is a friend of mine that I have met only in the blog world, and have mentioned before, Gwen Oatsvall. A wonderful wonderful woman with a huge heart for the orphan. Her personal blog is here: http://www.oatsvallteam.blogspot.com, and the blog she has with her friend Suzanne is here. Please grab her badge for your blog and go to this site and help the orphans in Haiti and around the world.

Here is what they are doing in Gwen's words:

THE CHILDREN OF HAITI NEED US RIGHT NOW .... 147MillionOrphans.com will be donating 50% of all profits of online sales over the next month to a children's home in Haiti ... SO GUYS AND GALS it is time for some shopping with a PURPOSE .... Wear a shirt about helping orphans around the world and tell everyone you care about them !!!! I want to sell out our inventory and send lots of love and funds to Haiti ...

I could say Haiti has a special place in my heart because of my friend Jamie, who has a daughter from Haiti and her son is still in Haiti, and while this is true because I see sweet Amos's face on a daily basis while praying him home, but the truth is I LOVE ALL ORPHANS and I know someone who has adopted from almost every place in the world ... WE ARE ONE BODY ... There is no THEM AND US ... So when we know of hurt, we must act !!!

God bless and keep praying.

For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
~ Ephesians 2:10
