Hurricane Katrina

"Complete and utter devastation" is the phrase that I keep hearing. This is just unreal. A friend of mine said that it looks like something out of a movie about armageddon. My heart goes out to these people that have literally lost everything but their lives and even some have lost that as the death toll continues to rise. I thank God that my friends and family are all accounted for and all safe. I can not imagine all of the chaos that is going on down there right now. I'm not going to post any pictures on here because they wouldn't be my pictures and I don't want to deal with permission issues but if you go to flickr and do a seach for hurricanekatrina (yes, all one word) then you will see some of the photos of the immense devastation. If you want to help out in the relief effort--

Govenor Blanco said that today should be a day of prayer for the victims and their families but also those working down there to try to help the people get out and the ones that are in charge deciding what would be best to help these people need prayers too.
It was first thought that New Orleans dodged a bullet but now it looks like she may have received a fatal wound. Let's all pray for south Louisiana right now as the waters continue to rise.
