HAITI: I AM LISTENING. I AM PRAYING!

Blessings to all and Happy New Year!

I Praise and Thank GOD for keeping HIS hand upon me!  It has been a long time since I posted, but I am glad to be writing again.  I am available and willing to be used by GOD for HIS glory!  Thanks to all my blogging friends and family that kept me in their prayers!  Special shout outs to: Alice, Lorie, Lynn, Shanita, Rachel and Mikey Ann!


This past couple of weeks regarding the earthquake in Haiti has really been hard for me to view.  It not only brought out my compassion and love for these people, but laid a heavy burden on my heart.  To see those people, babies, women and men in such dismay, pain and agony was heartbreaking.  However, to see the people rejoicing and praising GOD in spite of was encouraging, heart-warming and simply, beautiful. 

As I watched Kirk Franklin's new song on GMC:  Are you listening? A love song for Haiti and the Hope for Haiti special that aired on all networks, I just weeped and cried out to GOD for these precious people. 

I just want my Haitian friends and family to know that I am listening and praying, but most importantly, GOD is able to do above all we could even think or ask.  GOD is listening and HE loves each and every one of you!  I pray that HE encompasses HAITI with a peace that surpasses all understanding and that HE heals those open wounds.  I pray HE lifts you up and rebuilds your spirits, minds and souls.  I pray HE protects you and keeps you in HIS perfect will.  Amen!

Let us help in any way we can and let us keep Haiti in our thoughts and prayers, continuously lifting them before the Throne of GOD!

We've had a lot of things going on in our apartment and I did not see this post. I'm so sorry I wasn't here to welcome you back. We have changed our internet service to our local telephone company and also went with their satellite dish for TV. I've had to change my email address in a lot of places. It took a couple of days, but things are beginning to settle down.

My heart goes out to the people in Haiti. Someone was asking for prayer for them and God reminded me that He knew where the people who were still alive were so I prayed that God would show the rescurers exactly where to look. It was so amazing to watch how many they found.

So glad your back and pray your life has settled down now. It sounds like it has. I thought of you often and prayed for you. I remember the last post you did and it just broke my heart, but I felt God would see you through whatever the trials were and He did.
Praise God,
AliceE.

That's ok. I just posted it yesterday. I am glad things are settling down for you! It sounded like it was kind of hectic there for a moment, but I am glad you took time out to think about little me. Thanks for your prayers for the people of Haiti! I am sure they are appreciated, I sure do. I am back and my life has settled down somewhat. I am in a home that was much better than the one I was in before and my family is healthy. That is a lot to Thank GOD for. I can't express how much I appreciate your thoughts and prayers. I was really going through a rough time, but I learned to TRUST GOD through it all. Thanks again Alice for your care and your prayers! It is a blessing to you as a friend!
Blessings,
LaTonya
