Firstly, thank you so much for your thoughts, concerns, messages and your prayers for me and for Japan. It’s really appreciated.
I was at school when the earthquake struck. It was horrible. It felt a lot like motion sickness. I suddenly felt really dizzy but it passed away after a minute or so. Then, with the rest of the world, we watched the TV in horror as the tsunami swept inland, taking everything in its path. We are all shocked at the scale of this disaster. For the people who live in the affected regions, life has changed forever and rebuilding everything will be a huge job.
Like many others, the extent of the suffering has moved me to pray. When Jesus was on earth, he also gave special attention to those who were suffering, whether it was hearing the cries of those who were sick and healing them, standing against injustice or protecting those who were suffering prejudice. Japan is now suffering and I pray that God would give special attention to this country in the coming years.
