There were multiple reports all over the TV last night about the tons of aid just waiting to go to Burma. Warehouses full of supplies and medicines that are just sitting there because the Burmese gov’t will not allow the U.S. to help. Our First Lady, Laura Bush, made a direct appeal to the gov’t there on Wednesday to allow the aid for the Burmese people. We are saying prayers, but to see all that food and water just sitting is so disheartening. Please know that we are aware and we are trying.

Why don’t our aid workers simply pick up the food and take it somewhere else, if the government of Myanmar doesn’t want the food to come in?
