Cylcone in Myanmar

After watching the devastation of the limited images on TV, it is hard to imagine what's really going on in Myanmar. The cyclone has ravaged through villages. Many villages were completely wiped out and now, the government has the audacity to not let foreign aid workers enter in.

Do I believe in evil? Do you believe in the power of Satan? For sure, their is an evil presence working through this government. Unfortunately, this government is not helping their own citizens so they can get the required aid to prevent major outbreaks of cholera & diarrhea. It's unbelievable that the government would have a major vote, just after a huge portion of their country has been wiped out!

We must pray that God would soften the hearts of those leaders to allow the foreign aid and workers into the country. What we are seeing in Myanmar is similar to the story of Pharoah, who had such a hard heart and wasn't able to see his own ignorance.

Written from a land of abundance, a person who is humbled and in awe of how much we have and yet how little we care for those in need.
