Bombard
The people of Haiti need better/more options.I don't want to ask you for help so often that I become "that guy" - you know the one - the one you avoid in order to avoid yet another request.Truthfully, it is quite difficult to strike a balance in which we are not constantly bombarding you with the facts - especially when the facts look and sound like this:"The maternity hospital that we were to take her to was nothing I could have prepared myself for.
Let us be kind
We cannot know the griefThat men may borrow;We cannot see the soulsStorm-swept by sorrow;But love can shine upon the wayToday, tomorrow;Let us be kind.Upon the wheel of pain so may weary lives are broken,So may our love with tender words be spoken.Let us be kind.
Be strong
Be strong!We are not here to play, to dream, to drift;We have hard work to do, and loads to lift.Shun not the struggle; face it.

More than mere body posture?
The Lord has brought me to my knees in prayer. I find myself every morning and sometimes multiple times throughout the day just getting on my knees and seeking Him in prayer. Its like I can’t get off my knees these days.
When even the floor was not low enough.
I hope that some of you are not getting tired of my rave of Jesus these days as He is radically changing me from the inside out. I just can’t keep silent about what He is doing! I recall the words of Jesus when He stated that if the children of God are silenced from [.
Drawn by Him?
Well, the Lord is continuing to work in my heart in a manner in which I cannot even describe. I find myself just weeping at some small point every day because I am overcome with His presence and thoughts of His goodness. I am being drawn to my knees in prayer every single morning.
