We were rescued from our front lawn in a boat. Thankfully, water didn't come into our home, but our church and many surrounding homes were flooded. That sparked a year long struggle of rebuilding in our community, of which we were heavily (too heavily) involved. You're right... it is an unimaginable suffering, so hard to know where to begin. All recovery efforts, whether in the physical or recovery of the heart, begin with love. One seed at a time until hope is restored. Our tendency is to take it all on rather than the "single bite" in front of us. I commend you for doing your little; it's important to keep doing it for the long haul. How quickly we are lured into the next big tragedy without taking care of the one in front of us! I'm speaking from personal experience here...<br /><br />You're hands on in Joplin. I'll keep my hands busy in NC. <br /><br />Blessings for a beautiful day.<br /><br />peace~elaineelaine @ peace for the journeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09675745465728814736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6776595555595101263.post-25428191740005686722011-05-27T19:17:06.009-07:002011-05-27T19:17:06.009-07:00This is so heartbreaking Marybeth, we are witnessi...This is so heartbreaking Marybeth, we are witnessing the real world, terrible disasters, unnecessary loss of lives it's too much for people to cope with.

I've actually found a station here that has Good Morning America around 5 a.m. (and of course I'm up eating!) so I've been watching their coverage about Joplin on there-but it's always the broadcast from the day before. It's so unreal. So glad you and Gerri went to help Rita and company--was it Jeremy's house that got damaged? Saw Chris's comment on FB, so I was wondering if it was Jenni's house. . .kellie j.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13578031247064648785noreply@blogger.com
