Haiti Earthquake ~ Our hope is God Almighty!

Yesterday church service in CHCKL was so tangible that I can feel..... I can feel the presence of God! The 2 hours of worship ain't enough.. Oh, how I love to spend my Sunday morning in church. "Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere , Psalm 84:10". After worship, we prayed for Haiti. Distraught, covered in dust and desperate, the people of Haiti appear barely able to comprehend the tragedy that has overtaken them. The quake itself measured 7.0 on the Richter scale- but some of the 30 aftershocks were almost as strong, leaving the shanty-towns of Port-au-Prince echoing with the heartrending sound of screams and sobs.

What will I do if I were at that scene? Your life is at stake every moment now and then, you will not know when the next earthquake/tsunami will strike again. Are you going to live in fear until your last breath? The world is getting more scary because you hear earthquake/tsunami now and then. Within a minute, EVERYTHING gone! All your treasures that you build for years is gone within a minute!! Matthew 16:19-20 says “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal." This scripture is so true that the treasures (big house, big car, big $$$) that you have are easily destroyed. And the only everlasting treasure is in Heaven! Life on earth is short, it's only temporary, but life in Heaven is forever!

Here are some pictures that I downloaded from :

People in Port-au-Prince desperately search for survivors following the quake.
Landslide: Many poorly constructed homes were simply swept away by the magnitude of the quake.

Reduced to rubble: Hotel Villa Creole in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, crumbled.

Destroyed: Residents pass by collapsed buildings - only a cross remains standing.

Rescue: A woman is pulled from the ruins by two rescuers. Many have been forced to dig with their bare hands.

All that happened, had already happened and our hope is God Almighty, His love is greater than all, lift high the God of Heaven and give all the honor.

Verse 1:
Our God He lives forever
He reigns in power and love
Let Earth bow down before Him
For He is exalted

Pre-Chorus 1:
We look to Yahweh Yahweh
Forever Yahweh Yahweh

Verse 2:
Our hope is God Almighty
His love is greater than all
Lift high the God of Heaven
Give all the honor

Pre-Chorus 2:
We look to Yahweh Yahweh
Our hope is Yahweh Yahweh

Chorus:
And He shall reign forever
He shall reign forever
He shall reign Forever and ever (Our God)

The world already has it's own trouble, and why do us, human beings create more unnecessary troubles? We should live in harmony and peace because one day, you will never know what will be destroyed within a minute. We should be thankful with what we have now! No matter what happened, we know our hope is in God alone and His name shall be glorified and He shall reign forever and ever! God loves everyone of us............. and we are so precious in His eyes!
