Coming off a 30 hour long plane ride, with 3 hours of sleep the night before and a 4 hour card ride that day from Chennai where we were run off the road. We finally caught up with the rest of the team, and then were sent off to view the destruction. This is the first lady we came across, I will never forget her. She was sitting alone among the wreckage of her home, without family, without support, without hope just sittiing and waiting, not sure what for, maybe she is still sitting there now? I will remember vividly walking away feeling helpless. The redemption is two-fold, one many are praying for her as we have shared her story and photo with many, secondly from that experience we became much bolder in the way that we reached out to those who suffered, we would not walk away again without leaving a blessing from Christ. We learned to sit and hear stories, to hug, to lay hands on and pray for, and just to be present and allow Christ's Presence within us heal and comfort. She was instrumental in our future interaction with thr many suffering God would allow us to touch.
