Asia Devastation


I tried to post a link to the CNN story on the Asia earthquake. It wasn't a permalink, so today it's no good. Amazed me that some of our ministers were unaware of it today. My heart is heavy for those thousands buried in mud, legs amputated to be pulled out, bleeding, hurting, wounded, distraught. "Pakistan earthquake toll reaches 18,000 dead and 41,000 injured", a spokesman for Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf tells CNN.

This picture from that earthquake yesterday reminds me of the four men who carried their friend on a cot.

Let's not grow weary in doing good! Pray for these as earnestly as we prayed for our own. Let your love grow.

Also pray for a young missionary friend of mine in Southeast Asia, unnamed for security, that opportunities to share Christ will open to her through this nearby crisis.
