This morning I heard a news report about a big earthquake in Japan. The earthquake was one of a series of quakes that have been going on all day. I think the USGS said that there were over 200 earthquakes there, and the biggest was over 8 on the magnitude scale. They are saying that this quake was one of the top 5 worst ever.
Then they had a tsunami, which wiped out entire towns and swept inland over 4 miles. I am stunned at all the damage and the certain loss of life.
My heart goes out to the people of Japan and hope that we can help them get through these twin disasters.
