Japan was hit with an 8.9 earthquake Thursday evening, US time. Then a tsunami followed, which made people, urban development, technology and whatever man-made, look like toys. The whole world knows about it because well… it’s been a world-shaking event. I had a difficult time trying to process the catastrophe, and still am now. Last I heard was that there have been several aftershocks and radiation leaks, but the most imminent threat is a nuclear meltdown. Please pray for Japan and the world for that matter. Everything that’s going on (though I’m not terribly informed) from Japan to the Arab world to here in the States and even the things unmentioned… it can get overwhelming in a hurry.
I feel so small and helpless. The shaking of the earth, the rumbling of the sea and the destruction that follows… They are awful things to witness. But somehow, they all leave me in awe of God. We must turn to Him who is sovereign and pray for mercy. Somehow, some way, behind all of this, God is at work. He hasn’t left Japan. Glorification will come to pass.
Please pray, those who know and hope in the Lord.
