A NATION OF PRAYER

Today has been declared, by the president of Haiti, as a national day of mourning, marking one full month since the devastating earthquake that crumbled the government of Haiti to it's foundations. The death toll, the last we have seen, is reported to be at 212,000. There are still many missing. Do we really know how many are homeless, broken or left jobless? Do we really know...anything except for the moment we are standing in right now?
The church has taken this call to mourning a huge step further. The church has asked the nation of Haiti to pray & fast for the next three days.
Churches all over Haiti are full this morning as services began very early. Singing & praying are filling the air. As the day progresses the people will cry out to God for this nation, repenting of their sins, begging God to forgive this nation of its sins, to bring unity among the people, to provide for those in need, to heal the broken & to bring spiritual renewal to this land. Praises will also ring forth. Praises to our Creator who has been merciful, who has been gracious, who is our Provider, our Healer, our Protector, our All in All.
Wherever you are this morning, whatever you are doing, will you take a moment to lift your voice to God on behalf of the people of Haiti? We need for God to heal our land.
Thank you, in advance, for praising our Creator with us.
