August 30, 2017, the largest storm recorded in history was discovered forming in the Atlantic Ocean. A Cat 5 storm that would be catastrophic would hit land and be deadly. Hurricane Irma was the worst storm to hit in years, destroying parts of Cuba and the Bahamas. We don't really see a lot of coverage for these parts of the world, just Florida. Even other states affected by Irma didn't get as much coverage.

In 2005 Hurricane Katrina hit and completely demolished the coast of Mississippi but in the end New Orleans, Louisiana got the most help and coverage. To this day we are still rebuilding our towns from the tragedy. South Carolina, Georgia, and many more states were affected by Irma, but no one wants to talk about it because they aren't the biggest states. I wasn't old enough to remember much of Katrina, but growing up and hearing the stories of how it left us so devastated, I knew that when Irma hit, it was only gonna turn into another Katrina.

This article isn't to say that Florida doesn't deserve our help and prayers, it's saying there are others that need our help too. Texas needs our help recovering from Harvey, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, even Cuba need our help and support. Hebrews 13:16 reads, "Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God." God tells us to help our neighbors and to be kind.

To everyone affected by the recent tragedies, hurricanes, fires, earthquakes, we hear you and we are praying for you. You are not a forgotten cause, we are doing what we can to get to you. Let go and let God.
