Haiti Earthquake

I live in a country where natural disasters are commonplace - earthquakes, typhoons, erupting volcanoes, floods - you name it, we've gone through it for sure. But even though year in and year out we experience these tests, nothing really prepares you for it...

I know too well how the Haitians feel, and the tears cloud my eyes as I write this post. It has been almost two weeks since the earthquake hit Haiti and they have now raised the death toll to 150,000.  Some reports fear that number may even double.

Can you even picture 150,000 dead people?


Haiti death toll tops 150,000


I couldn't picture it in my mind - 150,000 people.
For comparison, below is a photo of a football stadium with a capacity of 106,201.



My apologies if some of you are put off by the image I am implying - but I needed to see how many people I needed to pray for.

I hope you realize it too. They need our help.
