Support the people of Nashville.

It's disturbing when a tragedy happens in the great homeland of America and the media barely covers it.

I'm reminded of the scripture reference in 1 Corinthians 12, 'The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. 13For we were all baptized by[c] one Spirit into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. 14Now the body is not made up of one part but of many. 15If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body," it would not for that reason cease to be part of the body. 16And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body," it would not for that reason cease to be part of the body. 17If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be? 18But in fact God has arranged the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be. 19If they were all one part, where would the body be? 20As it is, there are many parts, but one body.' 

This parallels all too clearly for me.  As we are the body of Christ and we need one another to function as a whole, isn't this the same in our country, as human beings?  Just because the flood didn't happen in our back yard doesn't mean it didn't destroy maybe the 'foot' of the being of our body as Americans!  We need to take care of each other.  Haven't we seen our country in enough defeat the past couple of years. If we the people don't serve each other we will dwindle in our selfishness. 

In that being said, for those of you who don't know and you're in my circle of life, let me shed some light on what's happening.  I believe the best way for us to capture the essence of the amount of loss that Nashville is experiencing is to see it ourselves.  Let it sink in.  Put yourselves in their shoes. Don't just feel sorrow for them but take on the burden and make their load a little lighter.  This is a wonderful video a friend of mine put together.  Please view it and make a donation.  Every little thing amounts to a great thing.  You can make a difference.  Nashville's mayor Karl Dean said Wednesday that he expected damage estimates around Nashville to top $1 billion. Let's help put a dent in that 1billion.  If you don't have a heart or compassion for this sort of thing....FIND it...NOW!!!! Click the links below. Thank you!
