when i am bombarded
An email from World Vision: 1 million homeless.
A letter from St. Jude Children’s Hospital: more than 10,000 children will learn they have cancer this year.
Another email from Not For Sale: 27 million slaves in the world today.
And, as I type this, a tweet: corruption and violence in Sudan continue unchecked.
I am overwhelmed. I read Madeleine L’Engle’s January 28 entry from Glimpses of Grace (yes, accidentally a day early).

“…the magnitude of this catastrophe is enormous.”
I felt small as I read the email from World Vision. Like most everyone, I’ve been catching snippets of information and news feeds of images from Haiti’s devastating earthquake. And, with reality setting in, I am at a loss as to how to respond.
