Hurricane Harvey

August 31, 2017 · 

Over the past few days, we have all see the devastation that Hurricane Harvey has left on numerous communities and cities in South Texas and Louisiana. Torrential rain in these areas has led to unprecedented flooding that has displaced countless people and destroyed numerous homes.

You may be wondering how you can help.

First, I encourage you to pray. Please pray for those who have been impacted and those who are in the path of Hurricane Harvey. Lives have been completely changed. Pray for these individuals as they begin rebuilding their lives.

Pray for the spread of the gospel. Pray that Christians affected by the hurricane will grow in their reliance on Christ. Pray that God will give Christian disaster relief workers the right words and opportunities to share the gospel with people.

Second, there are numerous organizations that are providing aid to the region. Consider making a financial donation to reputable, well-established relief agency. These teams are on the ground and are working to help those affected by the devastating damage. Every little bit will help these people rebuild their lives.

In the coming weeks, the impacted areas will be able to better identify the support they need. Then, they may request donated goods and volunteers to assist in cleanup and rebuilding. Be prayerfully open to these opportunities as they arise.

The NRBTV team is truly heartbroken to see such devastation. Please know that we are praying for those who have been affected by this devastating storm. We pray that God’s healing presence give them peace and hope in their time of need.

God has reminded me that this world isn’t perfect. We were never promised we wouldn’t experience natural disasters, hardships, and recessions. But God promises to be with us always. He is in control and wants us to rely on Him for every need.

“Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us.” Psalm 62:8
