On Friday night, I was so exhausted from a very trying week. I noticed that there was an earthquake in Japan and was a little releaved that would account for some of the things that had occurred.
On Saturday morning, my roommate told me that there had been an earthquake. Since I had seen the info about the Japapn earthquake, I commented that I knew about it. That is until I walked into the living room and saw the destruction in Chile. I didn't realize that the earthquake she was talking about was the one in Chile.
I noticed that several groups online, were beginning prayers for the people already effected by the damamge and prayers for those that were going to be in the path of the tsunami. I watched and waited, like all the rest of the world, and was so releaved when we saw very minimal damage.
I remember watching newscasters saying that some people will critize them for making this seem worse than it ended up being, but the first island hit...did have damage, so the potential for Hawaii having huge waves, etc. was very real.
Whether you agree or not, prayer worked in this case....at least that is my opinion.
