Almost Speechless

After seeing all the unbelievable images of the hurricane Katrina, I can't help but feel guilty for the trivial matters I often complain about. I also feel so helpless as I stare at the screen of pictures and hear the pain in their voices - I want to help, but there is nothing I can physically do. I just feel grateful for where I am, but at the same time I know that I am not invincible to the disasters of the world which makes me want to appreciate every moment I have with my loved ones. We just never know what tomorrow might bring, so we are called by God to live for today and not focus on what might be.
