It is amazing to see how a monumentous disaster will either bring out the best or the worst in people. The sky-rocketing gas prices all over the nation, the uncontrollable and very WRONG looting, the death and distruction, the raping and pilaging that is occuring... it all has to stop. We have to band together and pray as well as doing whatever is in our power to help. The water alone is extremely dangerous with toxins, alligators, sewage, snakes and such. Stealing isn't going to help. I don't care if the people are "desparate." It still doesn't make it right especially since help is on its way.
I thank those that are bending their knees in serious prayer, those that are sending money, and those that are using vacations to go help. However, to those that are stealing/looting, raping, being violent and viscious ... God help you!
thought you would be interested in some of my mom's postings.. mostly passing on of articles that she's found, with her commentary before.
