    it is difficult to imagine the sorrow of south asia. Lord, may your Holy Spirit comfort those that are mourning. May i be found faithful to pray for them.

    I am reminded of the mothers of Bethlehem:

    This is what the LORD says:
        A voice was heard in Ramah,
        a lament with bitter weeping--
        Rachel weeping for her children,
        refusing to be comforted for her children
        because they are no more
