“The Lord says, ‘Do not fear, for I am with you, I am your God. I will
strengthen you and help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right
hand.” Isaiah 4:10
I do believe this truly, but events happen and my faith weakens.
As you can see on the 2 pictures we had the second big distribution today at Ayadina: 430 displaced families received whatever they need for one week. The first picture shows Rodayna – a newly nurse graduate and displaced person – and myself. The second of Fadi, also a displaced person, father of a small girl. He represents the displaced families of one of the 2 schools we take care of, with Dona.
Our priority is giving with dignity.
I had just arrived home when the founding president of Ayadina called. She’s abroad from before the war started and is now stuck there. But her heart is with us. She calls me very often and encourages us all the time.
The atmosphere today in Beirut is one of fear. People want to think of precautions, but do not know where they will be safe for the coming night.
Tomorrow “medecins du monde” will come to check the sick at the schools.
A totally sleepless night. Bombing started at 12.50 AM and continued till 6 30 AM.
We are systematically attacked, all infrastructure will be gone.
I’m feeling so angry, upset and exhausted, but have to go to work now.
Will be continued…
