Tomas

Hello family and friends

We are bracing for the eye of hurricane Tomas ( now level 1 hurricane) to hit later this evening.  As I laid in bed last night, the rain was intense and the wind whistled loudly.  I could not rest knowing that all many Haitians are without any shelter, cold and afraid.  My thoughts were vividly imaged with people at our window saying "entree" which is french for "in" I felt someone over me, dripping looking for a warm blanket....I awoke in a startle and freaked Charles out.  My heart was beating so fast I could not calm myself.  I walked out of our room and looked around, convinced I could hear some voices.  However, no one was inside.

This morning I shared with a few Christian ladies about my night.   Michelle Roberts ( Marcs sister in-law) is here from Calgary shared with me  the lyrics to the song  "I will exalt you". They comforted me and I hope to  comfort others today with these powerful words

"I will exalt You, I will exalt You, I will exalt You, You are my God. My hiding place, my sage refuge, treasure Lord, You are my Friend and King, anointed One most holy!"

Bless you all.
