Did you dread getting out in this rain and driving your car?
At least your car is not floating away, submerged in water or tossed on top of a building.
3 days ago most of us sat in front of the television for hours watching the path that Sandy would take, maybe even doing a little preparing ourselves for a possible power outage. Since she hit land we have been watching, reading, surfing the net for pictures anything to get just a bit more information, and see just a few more photos.
Today though I though a lot about the devastation. I sat in the comfort of a warm, safe environment and watched the trials that many, in the direct path faced.
Over the next several days and possibly weeks do me a favor;
When you sit down and are eating a hot meal, take time to pray for those who have little food and no way to prepare it.
When you are thirsty and drink, pray for those that thirst who have no more water.
When you lay your head on your pillow at night, Please pray for those who have no pillow or warm blankets and may be getting very little rest.
When you walk into your home, go from room to room and each room you are in stop and pray for those who no longer have a home.
When you take the last look at your children before you go to bed, pray for those who cannot find their children, pray for those that Sandy took with her.
When you are having a frustrating moment, a moment that you are feeling like life just isn't fair. When you are wishing you could be anywhere other than where you are, look at this devastation with compassion and with each photo PRAY. These people are in pain and need to feel the power of God's love and the peace of his protection.
