Safe in the Storm

I was in Illinois earlier this year where I experienced my first tornado producing thunderstorm. I saw the warnings on the weather channel and could see the dark clouds approaching. I stood in the safety of my friends home as the storm approached. It kept getting closer and closer. The wind and hail was intense. I could see it was nothing to take lightly. It came and it passed. I was in awe of its power and its beauty.

We are in an economic storm at this time. I am not sure how it will change the world and our nation. I remain hopeful for Indonesia and have no thought of giving up. We have 35 children in our care, lepers and thousands who depend on us for their medical help. We have to stand safe in the midst of the storm.
