Pray...

If you will, for the people of Burma, also called Myanmar. After a devastating cyclone, the military thugs that rule the nation refuse to allow international aid agencies to distribute needed food and water. Or they insist the materials be left to them to distribute, and not even the U.N. is gullible enough to believe these leaders will do anything with the aid other than tighten their grip on power.

At the college where I used to work, I met people who have families in Burma, and that helps me focus my prayers. You may or may not know someone there, but you can of course continue to pray for them. Pray that the leaders of this nation have somewhere inside some remnant spark of humanity that will stir them to allow their people to be helped. If they haven't got that spark, then pray for their souls, because they walk a path whose sure end is damnation.
