10 ways a Christian should respond to the earthquake in Japan

It has been heart-wrenching, to say the least, to observe and hear of the devastating effects that continue to unfold from the recent earthquake in Japan. I ran across this wonderful response by my British friend Adrian Warnock re: how I, as a Christian, should consider responding to the earthquake.

My only suggestion would be to give a bit more weight to ways we can tangibly care for the persons of Japan. But I'm especially thankful for his note about Job's friends and how sometimes it's best for our initial response to be shut up, listen, & pray. Also, appreciated the thoughts on not being too hasty to 'blame' the country of Japan.
