Hello dear praying friends and family,
Today was the first day since the quake that I haven't had CNN on all day. Will turn it on after dinner.
In the course of an otherwise "normal" type day, I read countless emails from others here in the states with deep ties to Haiti. I have also received countless reports of the Haitian people singing in the evenings as it becomes dark; mostly they sing familiar hymns and church songs. Praising God for his deliverance and calling out to him to help them. They can be heard all over the capitol as their is nothing much else to do in the evenings with everyone "camping" out. Pretty humbling to me that having lost the very little they had, not to mention their loved ones, they can praise instead of blame God.
Sort of reminds me of an index card I saw on my mother-in-law's dresser mirror right after my father-in-law died suddenly: "When Jesus is all you have, you discover Jesus is all you need."
