There's a Little Hope

Here's the Headlines on msnbc.com:

Eastern Congo militia groups sign peace deal
Treaty calls for immediate
cease-fire in embattled African country

...but we all know what those African tribal peace treaties/cease-fires can be like. It's a sad reality that this could only be temporary. But maybe, just maybe, this one may work, this one may give the poor victims who have been forced from their homes, who have relatively no health care and no security to speak of, maybe this could allow them time to reset their lives, to flee and get to a place that can be safe. I feel the only safe place is in the arms of their Jesus. But I pray that they can find peace where they are.
