There Is a Greater Love

The terrible waiting... a relief camp in southern India

In this hour of global need you find yourself thowing up your hands in dispair...or being shell shocked at the scope of the disaster... too big... too much to comprehend... then you feel guilty that you arent "feeling enough"... Know that God in His heaven knew that this natural disaster was going to happen, and that no matter what He is loving and wants the very best for us... In this, I think, the largest known natural disaster since the great flood, we have to trust and continue to have faith that we serve a God That Sees...., and knows the deepest needs of each person on earth.


There is a Greater Love

When parents weep,
There is a Greater Love.
When children lose there way
a Greater Love...
When wives cry out
And men have lost their dreams...

There is a Greater Love
There is a Greater Love
There is a Greater Love

When tears pour out
There is a Greater Love
When healing does not come
a Greater Love
When sorrows flow,
and joy is swept away

There is a Greater Love
There is a Greater Love
There is a Greater Love...Greg Nelson

Surely my soul remembers (the Calamity) And is bowed down within me.
This I recall to my mind, Therefore I have hope.
The LORD'S lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail.
They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness.
The LORD is my portion, says my soul, Therefore I have hope in Him.
The LORD is good to those who wait for Him, To the person who seeks Him.
It is good that he waits silently For the salvation of the LORD.

The Lamantations of Jeremiah 3:20-26
