On the other hand, prior to His discipline advancing to more painful stages, He frequently bestows even more grace upon those whom He loves, seeking for them to return to Him before their destruction.

In today’s world, where everything unfolding in Haiti is delivered to the eyes of the world, perhaps He has been more graceful to them, affording observers an opportunity to return to Him, prior to their discipline if they should fail.

The real devastation might be forthcoming upon the observers than upon the Haitians. So instead of rendering aid independent of faith in Christ, countable as dead works, it is far more important to perform all things through faith in Him, allowing God the Holy Spirit to glorify the Son.
