Prayer for Haiti

Dear Father, It is with a heavy heart that we come to you to ask for your mercy to be upon Haiti and its people. As rescue teams search for casualties, give them foresight. May they be led by your wisdom, and encouraged by your strength. If there are people who are buried in rubble and yet are surviving I pray that the rescue workers would find them in time and revive them. For the lives that will be lost, we pray for comfort for the family and friends of the deceased. For those who are now disabled we pray that their needs will be met for mobility equipment. We ask for transportation to deliver the shipment we are preparing for Haiti . We ask that roads will be open to take life saving food, water and medical supplies. We pray that lives and buildings will be restored. May every prayer regarding this tragedy be heard and answered in your will. We pray that through this tragedy many will come to know Christ as Lord and Savior.
In Jesus name we pray,
Margaret Matasic

Finding God in the Earthquake
(Toward a Theology of Natural Disasters)
by Pastor Paul Sartarelli

The news shook us from many different sources and wouldn’t let up. CNN is telling horrific stories and showing even worse pictures.

Our minds and our emotions are on overload.

Yet nothing compared to the misery and death being experienced in that little island nation. It is actually quite possible to delay thinking about a disaster in another part of the world after the first news-tremor hits. One can start reserving those thoughts for the evening news or the Yahoo home page or the morning papers. Yet there is no walling off the impact of this since the earthquake wreaked its havoc in Haiti.
