He is my Comforter

I just received this email forward from a good friend... It really touched me, so I wanted to share it. We all know how easy it can be to forget all of the daily comforts we have all around us. We are abundantly blessed in our comfortable lives and what is going on in Haiti right now is a good reminder. Praise God for all the many people over there continuing to spread God's love, and for all the many hurting people who are choosing to seek God in the midst of chaos....


Dear Father in Heaven, I just want to say THANK YOU, because this
morning I woke up and knew where my children were. Because this morning
my home was still standing, because this morning I am not crying
because my husband, my child, my brother or sister needs to be dug out
from underneath a pile of concrete, because this morning I was able to
drink a glass of water, because this morning I was able to turn on the
light, because this morning I was able to take a shower, because this
morning I was not planning a funeral, but most of all I thank you this
morning because I still have life and a voice to cry out for the people
of Haiti. Lord I cry out to you, the one that makes the impossible,
possible, the one that turns darkness in to light, I cry out that you
give those mothers strength, that you give them peace that surpasses
all understanding, that you may open the streets so that help can come,
that you may provide doctors, nurses, food, water, and all that they
need in a blink of an eye. For all those that have lost family members,
give them peace, give them hope, give them courage to continue to go on!
Protect the children and shield them with your power. I pray all this in
the name of Jesus!!! Amen.


To all my friends, please continue to forward this so that we can pray
together for the people in Haiti. We, here, are truly blessed!!!!!
