It is difficult to avoid the heartache of the tragedy in Haiti. The news is all around us, and the need for us to act imperative. To help me get a better glimpse inside the country beyond what I read in the newspaper, I have sought and found several blogs written by people actually living there; or closely related to others in Haiti. I am following several of these blogs, and in doing so, I feel more compelled than ever to respond in prayer and action.

1. The Livesay family, living in Haiti: http://livesayhaiti.blogspot.com/
2. Aaron Ivey, a musician in the process of adopting a little boy from Haiti: http://aaronivey.com/
3. Compassion International's blog, regularly speaking with their teams in Haiti: http://blog.compassion.com/
4. the "Real Hope for Haiti Rescue Center" that houses 60 children: http://haitirescuecenter.wordpress.com/
5. Vaden and Cristal Earle's ministry, and The Absolute Leadership Development Blog: http://52.absolute.org/

Continue to pray and ask God what you can do to touch the beautiful Haitian people.
