Chinese earthquake

"O God, you rejected us, broke our defense;

you were angry but now revive us.

You rocked the earth, split it open;

repair the cracks for it totters.

You made your people go through hardship,

made us stagger from the wine you gave us.

Raise up a flag for those who revere you,

a refuge for them out of bowshot." (Palms 60: 1-6)

God does suffer as we suffer and weeps when we weep. We, as his followers, are called to prayer and action. If we are not able to give to those in dire need in China, perhaps we can give to those in most need near us.

Take care and until next time...
