February 1st, 2010: 6th Day in Haiti


Hi,


It is Sunday here in Haiti. It was so hot here last night. I'm not sure I got that much sleep between the heat and the mosquitos.


The big fear here is not just malaria but also dengue fever which has no prophylatic treatment to help protect us.













We spent Sunday at the church here on the Mission of Hope compound.
So many came to worship and cry out to God it was so moving. People were stacked up outside the church so they could watch from the windows.












Today I saw what real faith is. Faith is the belief in a loving God when there is no visable proof of Him. These people lost their homes, their parents and childeren their savings and their jobs in 45 seconds. Yet here they are crying out God asking for forgiveness and mercy. My worship and faith seems so small in comparison.











I can only pray that our faith is never tested to the extent that these people are.



Mark -Out
