Hope in the midst of great tragedy

Alex is serving in Tuscaloosa with all his guys in the National Guard helping with security and disaster relief from the horrible storms that came last week. Although it is hard not having him here with us...and the date of his return uncertain...there is no better person to take on the task of helping organize such a huge relief effort. He can plan and organize in his sleep I believe. As I look at the pictures (the top two) they make me smile knowing that even in the midst of such great tragedy there is hope. Hope for the rebuilding of homes, lives, families and faith. Although the devastation is unspeakable, the death toll too high and still climbing...it has been so amazing to watch as our communities, neighbors and churches have come together to rescue the hurting.
