Seeds of Contemplation: Katrina Strikes Hard...

Seeds of Contemplation

Every moment and every event of every person's life on earth plants something in their soul. For just as the wind carries thousands of winged seeds, so each moment brings with it germs of spiritual vitality that come to rest imperceptibly in the minds and wills of individuals. Most of these unnumbered seeds perish and are lost, because we are not prepared to receive them: for such seeds as these cannot spring up anywhere except in the good soil of freedom, spontaneity and love. ~ Thomas Merton

Katrina Strikes Hard...

In New Orleans, caregiver Sarah Johnson yells for help for her elderly patient

This picture says it all...

In the meantime, street gangs go looting and raping... certain groups of Christians go around preaching repentance because this was God punishing the homosexuals...

As of now, I've not heard of any country saying anything about helping the US in relief efforts. So much for gratitude of their assistance in the tsunami relief efforts. No doubt they are a rich nation, but that doesn't mean the rest can't help.

Lord have mercy...
