If You Say Go

My heart is breaking today for the people of Haiti. Since posting this morning, I really can't get the verbal images out of my head. Little babies with central lines (that's some serious IV work, saved only for the worst situations) and no one to comfort them. Patients sharing up to 10 to a room, and those are the fortunate ones. Others call a tarp their hospital room.

I know that I have nothing physically to offer in Haiti right now, yet my heart simply breaks. Whoever you are, as you read this post, would you ask God what He wants you to do? Not even for Haiti, necessarily, but for hurting people anywhere? Would you ask Him what His plan is for you to touch a life and make a difference in this world? If God says go, will you go?

I am thankful that churches are banding together to serve the people of Haiti. I lift my own pastor in prayer as he seeks to discern God's plan for our church to get involved. I lift NCBM to you, Lord, as they seek more medical professionals to continue to hospital work in Petionville, Haiti. I thank you for all who are already involved.

My prayer today is beyond words. My heart grieves for people I will never know. Please listen to this song. I pray it will become your prayer.
