Praying for Japan

"Pray for just enough illumination for the next step, and then the courage to take it" (David Crowder)

Today many will struggle to find comfort and peace in the midst of this devastation. I just wanted to take a break and focus my thoughts and energy towards Japan. My prayers go out to everyone affected by the earthquake and tsunami.
  • Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up. You will increase my honor and comfort me once again. (Psalm 71: 20-21)
  • The LORD's people may suffer a lot, but He will always bring them safely through. (Psalm 34:19)
  • Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. (Romans 12:12)
Affectionately yours,
