Prayer for Haiti

I was trying to think of some small way that I could help the people of Haiti and when this arrived, I found it to be the answer I was looking for. I hope you will join in so that we can pray together at this difficult time....

Keep the prayer going……….

Lord, I just want to say THANK YOU, because this morning I woke up and knew where my children were. Because this morning my home was still standing, because this morning I am not crying because my husband, my child, my brother or sister needs to be buried after being pulled out from underneath a pile of concrete, because this morning I was able to drink a glass of water, because this morning I was able to turn on the light, because this morning I was able to take a shower, because this morning I wasn't planning a funeral, but most of all I thank You this morning because I still have life and a voice to cry out for the people of Haiti. Lord, I cry out to You, the one who makes the impossible, possible, the one who turns darkness into light. I cry out to You to give those parents strength, and those children who have lost parents someone to watch over them, that You give them peace that surpasses all understanding, that You open the streets so help can come, comfort to those who have lost family members. Give them peace, give them hope, give them courage to go on! Protect the children and shield them with Your power. I pray all this in the name of my Lord and Saviour. Jesus Christ.

To all my friends please continue to forward this so that we can pray together for the people in Haiti .
