Where do you begin trying to put your life back together? Where do you begin searching for your things when they could be anywhere in a 70mile radius? Where do you begin..?
That's what kept going through my mind as our team began going through some of the damaged homes today.
You may find something that belongs to two houses down. You keep digging through layers and layers when you don't even know where the ground level is. It is a daunting task but the desire to rebuild is evident. They are hurting yes. They are broken. They are still in shock. BUT there is a deep hope rising. There are strong emotions of thankfulness & gratefulness of life.
I am so thankful to be here & to serve where we can. Tomorrow we are working with Samaritans Purse. We are staying at a church outside of Joplin. The church body here is unbelievable in making meals for us while we are here. Again, I am a small part of something so much greater than I can fathom.
Praying Jesus shines down & lifts up the hearts of the hurting!
Joy
