still trying to let reality sink in...

earthquakes and tsunamis rocked south asia on sunday.. and killed more than 60,000 pp as of today. the earthquake was teh largest in 100 years, and caused many waves (that rose up to as high as 3 storeys) to go crashing down on many beaches in the region. as a result, many drowned in the gigantic waves or in the turbulent sea, where they were sucked to when the waves retreated. countries affected numbered at least 9 (if im' not wrong) and Bangladesh (or was it Indonesia?? i forgot which asian country) lost 5% of its population in this disaster.

so i thank You, Father, for putting me, my family and my friends in Singapore, where we're sheltered from the tsunamis by all the islands. Father but at the same time i pray for those in our neighbouring countries, i pray for those who have lost their homes, that they can have their homes rebuilt soon, and for those who have lost their family, Father, i pray that You will give them strength to go on with life, and that Father, they will keep their eyes upon You and You will give them faith. Thank You Father, for carrying us at our darkest hours. Thank You for listening to all our prayers, in the name of Jesus Christ i pray, amen.

i look forward to better days ahead..
