Haiti has been devastated severely with a powerful 7.0 Magnitude earthquake. Follow complete news coverage on CNN special.
The sights and sounds of news everywhere sent a poignant reminder of how fragile life is, the terrorist attack in 2001 , Asian Tsunami in 2004, Hurricance Katrina in 2005...and so much more countless tragic events. It's heartbreaking to see so many lives being lost, even more so that many Haitians are already living in poverty.
Many would take this opportunity to question the compassion and mercy of God, and some would even question, and further challenge the existence of God. However, to people with faith in God, we must do whatever we can in helping Haitians, the victims in this disaster, at least a prayer for comfort and encouragement. Let us all say a prayer now...
Heavenly Father, great and beautiful is Your Name. Grant us a compassionate heart to weep along with our brothers and sisters in Haiti. Let our spirit be filled with love and mercy for people. I pray that the victims will be relief immediately by countless tiredless rescue workers, doctors and nurses caring for the injured, humanitarian workers and volunteers. The loss of loved ones would be the toughest of all kind of suffering as how You had lost Your Son, Christ on the cross on Calvary. However, let us and the Haitians not be discouraged, for you're the creator of life, and sustainer of eternity and full of love. Embrace and comfort the lost, the injured, the sick, the children, the women, the men...Hear our prayers, Father and hear not from the people who want You out of the world.
Here's a song I like to find comfort in whenever tragic even like this takes place...I dont have time to make a music video from the Haiti earthquake, but nevertheless the sight and sound of Sept. 11 Attacks will enable us to feel the pain for those who lost their lives and the victims of tragic events like the latest in Haiti.
