THE BEST NEWS EVER: the orphans in Haiti have all been air-lifted out and are now in Pittsburgh!!! Catrina and her husband went there last night and will be united with their adoptive daughter today!!
Through disaster there is blessing. I am so grateful for His hand in this. I can't imagine the emotions and the whirlwind of thoughts for my friend. Thank you for your prayers.
I do not believe God caused the earthquake in order for Catrina to get her daughter sooner, but I do believe "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28)
And I also believe that Catrina's circumstance is one of the countless ways in which God, in His great kindness and mercy and compassion and love uses this disaster to bless. He gives and takes away. Sometimes the ways He choses both to give and take away are never the way we would plan.
Danny just called to tell me he heard Haiti has just experienced another earthquake. I'm speechless.
The general and the detail. Our detail prayers now are for Catrina's daughter, recovering, adjusting, etc. Our general prayer must continue to be for Haiti and all the nameless people that we will never know.
