The images are numbing, the destruction mind-boggling. Many of us can't even
begin to imagine being in a situation like the one that struck the Gulf states.
When it does happen, we often think 'What can I do?'...'What can one person like me do?'. Praying is one very important thing you can do... giving to a relief organization is
another and many employers are matching donations dollar for dollar.
Giving of your time is yet another way to give aid to those in need. Banded together, we can have a great impact
on the outcome.
Shelters all across the United States are being filled to capacity. Most of these people have lost everything they
own - all but their lives and the clothes on their backs. Some have lost their children, parents, grandparents, and other
loved ones.
Pray that God will guide you in the direction on how He wants you to give. We are called to help those in need...
And he answered, "YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART,
AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND; AND YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF."
Luke 10:27 NASB
"Which of these three do you think proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell into the robbers' hands?"
And he said, "The one who showed mercy toward him." Then Jesus said to him,
"Go and do the same." Luke 10:36-37 NASB
