"The message today is simple, God is good. I do not understand tragedy of this magnitude, I do not understand why God would allow this. But what I do know is that God is good, that even in tragedy and in weeping and in the heartache, God is still good, and just and righteous and gracious. I am reminded of a C.S. Lewis quote, "God whispers in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pain: It is His megaphone to a deaf world." So I thank the Lord for those who are already there ministering, providing water and relief and I ask that you join in our prayer for the Haitian people, that God would awaken the dead hearts of those that need the Gospel. And that through the tragedy of living in a fallen and broken world, the Lord would be seen as glorious. He is good, may we cling to that even when we can explain everything. And today may you hit your knees for the people racked by tragedy and heartache. May the Lord be their comfort and peace.LOVE GOD LOVE PEOPLE
