Hurricane Harvey zong hi a fak ngaingai. Electric tung hmanh a phur i, truk lianpipi hmanh a leh ko hna. Inn chiahru deuh nih cun tuarh ding a si lo. 

Harvey thli nih cun rawhnak hi tam tuk a chuahpi lo nain, thli nih aa ratpimi ruahpi a tukmi tu nih rawhnak a chuahpimi deuh a si. Houston Area ah ruah tam tuk a sur i, suimilam 24 chungah lehmah 20 tluk in a sur ti a si. A cheu hmunhma cu ti nih a phummi hna a thuh tuk caah, zung (lehmah) in tahlo in dong (pe) in an tah hna. Innlo tam ngaingai a phum. Lampipuam lianlian zong a phum hna i, motor zong tam tuk tii nih a phum.

Zei ruangah dah hi tluk Harvey nih hin hi tluk in ruahpi a surter hnga timi hi, scientist nih hi tin an ruah. Vawleipumpi lumnak ruangah Mexico Rilikuai zong tii a lum deuh. Cun kum dang nakin tu kum ah tii a lum khun. Cun a tu lio hi Mexico Rilikuai ti a lum bik thla zong a si caah, a daam tuk i thli lak ah a daammi tam tuk aa tel caah a si an ti.

Cucaah USA Laimi vialte nih mah le thiam ning cio in, harnak an tonnak ah donation kan tuah ve a herh. Thilri in maw? Phaisa in maw? Thazaang in maw USA ram caah kan tuan ve a herh ko cang. 

Pathian a zum i, Bawi Jesuh dawtnak a theimi nih cun, midang harnak anton tikah dai tein kan um awk a si lo. Krihfami caah kan a herh bikmi cu:

 "Aa lawmmi hna sin i i lawmh ve le a tapmi hna sin i tah ve a si. Pakhat le khat i zawnruah hi a si. (Rome 12:15,16). Pakhat le khat i bawmh le thatnak i tuahpiak hi Bawipa sin ah a phanmi raithawinak a si" (Heb 13:16) caah, harnak tongmki hi kan i tanpi lengmang a herh.

Well-known televangelist Joel Osteen is navigating backlash amid allegations that his Houston megachurch refused to open its doors to shelter Hurricane Harvey victims.

In response to that steep criticism, Osteen reportedly insisted in a statement on Monday that Lakewood Church is prepared to step in when shelters are unable to provide aid. The nondenominational church operates in a building that once housed the NBA's Houston Rockets and is home to one of the largest congregations in the U.S.

"We have never closed our doors," Osteen said in a statement, according to ABC News. "We will continue to be a distribution center to those in need. We are prepared to house people once shelters reach capacity. Lakewood will be a value to the community in the aftermath of this storm."

Harvey, now a tropical storm, first made landfall last week in southeast Texas as a Category 4 hurricane, wreaking havoc and causing widespread devastation. The storm is also affecting southwest Louisiana, and the collective damage has caused flooding, mass evacuations and damage that is taxing federal and local relief capacities.

As the storm struck, Osteen said in a Saturday post he and his wife were praying for its victims, writing: "Victoria & I are praying for everyone affected by Hurricane Harvey. Please join us as we pray for the safety of our Texas friends & family."

But many on Twitter questioned Osteen's response, saying prayers were not enough.
