No Words Are Possible

Haiti.

The pictures on TV show only a small, small view of the immensity of the tragedy and the fragility of our lives. No pact with any devil can bring about that kind of natural disaster. No pact with God can protect from the possibilities. Only trusting in God can bring people through with any amount of hope.

But I am not there- and it is not my family, my friends, my house, or city, or country lying amidst such devastation. All I can do is cry for those who are unable to do so for themselves.

In your mercy, O Lord, grant them your peace.
