Rain, Rain...

Zion, 3 years old, stands at the window watching it rain, and starts singing, "rain, rain, go away, come again another day." That song has been around for ages. It really indicates we aren't happy when rain interferes with our plans.

My heart is in Haiti. They have had torrents of rain. Many people have died in the flood waters. One little boy from one of the villages, got caught in the strong water and was washed away. The body was never found. How is that possible? When there is powerful rains coming down from the mountains, it is possible to get washed away. Patrick told me this evening, there have been floods in many areas. Rivers are high. Schools have closed, church meetings have been cancelled. Today it didn't rain as much.

There is another hardship that goes with the rain...the wood is too wet for people to be able to use it for cooking. Therefore there are no meals.

Pray for Haiti. Pray for the families of victims who have drowned.

God bless you
