HELP – Haiti’s Earthquake Liberation Plan

I choose to learn from this disaster.  We are defenseless against an earthquake; we can just get on the safest ground and wait. But as Christians, isn’t this part of our daily practice, getting on safe ground and waiting on the Lord. I choose to use this earthquake to remember that none of us know when the second coming will be or for that matter the End Of Days. It seems to me therefore that this earthquake is my reminder that we must stand firmly in our beliefs and walk knowing that the end could be moments away

 

HELP – Haiti’s Earthquake Liberation Plan

 

Hundreds maybe thousands are feared to be dead

And though we rush to survivors rescue the road is bleak up ahead

It’s an aftershock rippling from the violent shake

The jolting of the region’s most violent Earthquake

I heard the news and a shock struck me

Such a lost of life, its indiscriminate enormity

 

Earthquakes don’t decide who will die

And so never choose if it will be you or I

Rumblings can bring down mountains and turn them into plains

Tremors may flatten buildings worst than floods and rains

Horrific property lost and utilities taken out

Quakes can destroy all in your sight and more about

Unrelenting seismic shakes in just a moments time

Assault a country worst than many years of crime

Keep people wary and always on their toes

Earthquakes can be more violent than hurricanes and tornados

 

Let us then reach out with the greatest strength of all

In times of devastation love cushions any fall

Be kind to each other and now to our neighbors in Haiti

Earthquake destroyed life and buildings but not our charity

Rescue your neighbors with aid and today

Allow your spirit to embrace them as you kneel to pray

There is a something I propose each nation can give

In this aftermath of recovery we can allow Haitians to live

On our islands and in our countries while their nation restores

Nations can open their heart by opening their doors

 

People can monitor them while others on the island work

Let the teams do their magic in the rubble and murk  

And when it’s done the Haitians can then return

Nations from Haiti’s Earthquake Liberation Plan can this charity learn
