heavy heart

my heart is aching this morning... for the millions experiencing pain, loss, fear in japan today. read this beautiful prayer written by john piper on the Desiring God blog last night:

http://www.desiringgod.org/blog/posts/a-prayer-for-japan

have been reading it again and again. crying out to our Faithful God- to show mercy, to restore, to redeem, to heal, to draw many to Himself.

"I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living." Psalm 27:13

  1. I, too, have been feeling incredibly heavy-hearted over the tragedy in Japan. I've also been feeling completely powerless about how I can help, but I realize that prayer is one way that I can make a difference. I reposted this prayer on my blog. Thank you for sharing it! Love and miss you so.
