Please keep the Nation of New Zealand in your prayers. A devastating Earthquake has hit Christchurch, with 65 already confirmed dead and many injured.
We still have not been able to make contact with some of our family living down there, and like many are feeling helpless as we watch the devastation on the news (regular updates here).

ReplyDeleteWhen I told my boys at breakfast this morning there had been a bad earthquake in New Zealand, my 8 year old asked, 'Is the lady who's blog you read OK?'
I just saw this one the news this morning. so horrible.

I will be praying that your family and friends are all ok. I will also be praying for the families of those not so fortunate. How devastating!

ReplyDeletelove and light
I was so sorry to see this in the news, and I thought of you and your family. I'm glad that you, your husband and children are safe, and I pray that the rest of your family is also.
ReplyDeleteHi Kristy, I saw the news of this disaster. I will certainly be praying for the people it has impacted. My family lost our home in the big earthquake in L.A. in 1994. We Californians have all been touched by loss due to earthquake at one time or another. Very sad; thankfulyy, God will use it for His good purposes, as He promises.
ReplyDeleteI saw a lot of footage on the news, it is just terrible. I hope your loved ones are saffe
ReplyDeleteI found you because you left a post on my blog. I am so glad to meet you so that I can be praying for you. May you feel God's presence at this time.
ReplyDeleteHey Kristy,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for all of your coverage on Christchurch and how people can help.
I am in christchurch, and a daily reader of your blog. I've just managed to get access to the internet and seeing and reading everything had brought tears to my eyes.
Whats going on down here in peoples hearts and souls really can't be described in words, but to try I am "touched" (and over whelmed, and inspired and thankful, and upset and angry and joyful) by your efforts.
Thank you.
Thanks for your comments... I love hearing from you!!!
