I have a prayer request today, for a man I barely know. On Friday morning, right before 8 am, I stopped at my local Shell station in the East Bay (NoCal) for some gas and much-needed coffee. As I was maneuvering to a pump, a police patrol car cut in front of me, and the officer ran in. I went to another pump, and after fiddling with my gas cap release for a minute, saw the officers taking out a raging, screaming man wearing a blood-spattered T-shirt.
I just missed being in the store part of the station by a couple of minutes.
Turns out he was a disgruntled former employee who had been fired a few days ago. The blood came from his victim - the manager of the station, Rex Clifford, who is in ICU in a Walnut Creek hospital. He was stabbed in the head and neck with a sharpened and otherwise modified Phillips screwdriver.
The perp is held in lieu of $3.6 million.
Please, I'm asking for prayers for Rex's complete recovery. He's a good guy, and really needs our prayers.
Thank you, and God bless.
I thank You for sparing Rex's life from this evil person, and I thank You that you are going to heal and restore Rex completely and totally, healing Rex in Jesus Name. Show Your bountiful mercy upon Rex and save the one who did this evil act. Save him, deliver him to Christ by Whose grace we are all saved. Father, thank You for hearing this prayer and restoring Rex better than he ever knew he could be, and Silverwoman and I agree in prayer, in Jesus Name,
Amen and Amen
