Please Be in Continued Prayer for the People of Myanmar

Relief volunteers are now estimating that tens of thousands of survivors of Cyclone Nargis will begin dying if aid is not allowed in. As of this morning, the first of US aid has been allowed in, but as I read it is still being turned over to the Myanmar government for distribution.

The Myanmar government does not have the motivation, man-power, or equipment necessary to undertake such a distribution effort and it is imperative that they allow crisis management experts in to do this work!

Please continue to petition God for the people of Myanmar – both the survivors AND those in government. Many have stepped up to send aid, but only God can truly deliver what these people need.

Father, I pray for those You would draw to You in Myanmar. I ask that you grant Your mercies on those who have survived this horrible natural disaster. Soften the heart of government officials stopping the true relief available through human effort. Move in supernatural ways to show Your awesome way to these hurting people. May everything that is accomplished in this effort be a true reflection of Your love and mercy. May all glory and honor be given to You, as it is meant to be given. Thank You that we may come to You in prayer through Your Son, Jesus. Amen.

I find my contentment in the Lord, and I praise Him for that. My salvation comes by God’s grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. I did not choose God, but by His graciousness He drew me to Him. I cannot earn, nor choose, favor from the Lord. Man’s purpose is for God’s glory. This purpose is our only value. God’s word is clear that man is nothing outside His Son, Jesus Christ. Without Christ, I have no peace.

The handsome guy in the picture with me is my husband, Barry. I am striving to be the help meet, and completer, he should have in me. My desire is to be Barry’s Proverbs 31 woman, as well as his “Rib”. We share a rich, full, life together – and we seek to honor the Lord with our marriage.

I am a member of Omaha Bible Church, in Omaha, Nebraska. Our pastor, Pat Abendroth, teaches in an expository manner and I am thankful that God has led me to a church that has helped me to grow in His word.

My faith is NOT works based, but I love that God has service planned in His will for me – and that His plan is for me to serve to His glory. I love serving the Lord through ministry to His body in our local church. (Local being subjective here – we are about 40 miles from our church and pass three mega-churches to get there)

If you want more information, feel free to contact me. If you are reading my blog, feel free to comment.

God’s blessings are abundant – and they are more than I can ever deserve.

In His Grace, by His Grace,

Robin

While it has been reported that Myanmar government officials have been uncooperative with international relief efforts, and are just now allowing aid to come in, World Vision has been on the ground from day one bringing supplies to the people of that country – and with the blessing of the Myanmar government.

Shane,

That is great news. And definitely not what is being reported in the media. For those interested, you can donate at worldvision.com.
