The most powerful earthquake of Japan (magnitude 8.9) on Friday 11th March, hit about 250 miles north-east of Tokyo, triggered a massive tsunami (reported to be as huge as 33 foot) destroying everything that came in its path. The disaster left most of the places in Tokyo in dark as the nuclear power reactors were shut down automatically due to the earthquake. After the earthquake, Japan is now trying to avoid a meltdown accident at its Fukushima nuclear power plant. A disaster which could have catastrophic impacts on Japan and much of the world.
Let us pray for the victims and families who have lost their lives. May the almighty God grant each one of us the wisdom and strength to stand the test of such trying circumstances.
