I've heard a cry of an orphan child and seen the one who cares for him lend him a deaf ear. I've heard of a father who sits unconcerned as his baby is choking. Stories of a wife sitting in a group as another women shares how her husband came to her room during the night. Reading from a blog of missionaries in Haiti, I learn to the heartache of a medical clinic that received a call about a man that had walked for days trying to find help. He was badly hurt in the earthquake, was vomiting as he walked. He was expected to reach the clinic before the day was over, he never made it. Mass graves and families that will never know where their loved ones ended up. A nation of people who have endured plenty are now living a nightmare. The injustice..... the pain.....the sadness..... and the sorrow, it never seems to let up.
"The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles;they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. " Isaiah 40 28-31
"Blessed is he who has regard for the weak; the Lord delivers him in times of trouble. The Lord will protect him and preserve his life;he will bless him in the land and not surrender him to the desire of his foes. The Lord will sustain him on his sickbed and restore him from his bed of illness. " Psalm 41:1-3
