I love that in the face of your helplessness, you did what you could....you loved, even if from a distance.<br /><br />And, while your heart and mind were immersed in loving those who were experiencing earthquake fall-out, fear and all manner of brokenness, God reached down and loved on you . . . and your broken body.

It gave me more of a connection to the events because I'd read so much about the people of Haiti through all of you. It's definitely motivated me to do more than I typically would to help.<br /><br />Glad you're back!

I know the place this land and its people hold in your heart. <br /><br />Reading this and considering the backstory, I wonder if Lorraine moving out and the earthquake happening wasn't just some huge "reset" for you, like rebooting the computer because it's acting all wonky.

I love how much you love Haiti, and how you let that day change your life.<br /><br />January 12, 2010 changed my life, too, because that's the day Mirren was born. I feel bad saying it here, but it was days before I knew there'd been an quake, and weeks before I heard much about it. But I immediately thought of you, Terri, when I did hear about it.
