As the disaster in Japan has unfolded we have been watching Sue's blog waiting for news and updates. Sue has been a faithful reader and correspondent for quite some time. She has shared over the years her heartfelt desire to live simply and within the will of God. Sue lives in Japan, with her husband and children. They too are waiting and watching and praying. Please join us in praying for their family during this time of crisis.
**Updated to request you add Debra and her family to your prayers as well! Even those outside the immediate area of the plant stand to be affected. We know this personally. We were here in Germany when radioactive clouds from Chernobyl contaminated many European countries. It is a terribly helpless feeling. I was laying in a hospital bed with preterm labor that year, with windows thrown wide open to catch any breeze since the facility was not airconditioned. I remember our landlords bringing us fresh cherries from their trees that summer. We thanked them and then quietly disposed of them since everything had been contaminated.
We cringe now looking back, remembering, and it was nothing like what the Japanese people are facing. But we also know, as Sue herself has said, it is all in God's hands and we pray for peace. Peace and protection for you, friends!
