Today I am so so thankful and in awe of how good our God is. It really seemed like the hurricane was going to hit our town. When I found out about the hurricane and the seriousness of it, at first, I was extremely scared and worried for the lives of those who I know and love dearly who do not live in stable homes here. I was crying and had a headache and just felt sick to my stomach about the destruction that could occur. And then I had messaged one of my friends on facebook to be praying for us and they wrote me back saying they would and then they also said "I trust God will protect everyone" and at this point in time, it did not look good and I was expecting the hurricane to hit us bad. And in all honesty before I read what my friend wrote I was not thinking God was going to protect everyone, I was thinking there is no way this massive hurricane the size of Arizona is going to somehow not hit Port-de-Paix. And then I read those words "I trust that God will protect everyone" and I realized my lack of faith and then began to give my fears about this situation to God. And understand that He really is in control and totally is capable of protecting everyone in my town.

And then the coolest thing ever happened. He did.

The hurricane did not hit our town badly at all. It was just like a really rainy day, it could've been so much worse, but it wasn't and I am so thankful. I am so thankful that even when I lack in my faith, God is still there for me and helping me through that doubt.

And I am so thankful for all of you who have been praying for Haiti and all the people here. Keep your prayers coming. Even though we were spared, sadly, the south of Haiti was not as fortunate.
