Prayers. I hope it isn't true that so many thousands may have lost their lives, but I fear that it is true.
Dear Heavenly Father, all praise, glory and honor to Thy Holy and Matchless Name. Please bless, and have mercy on the ones waiting to be rescued, please bless the sick, afflicted, orphaned, and widowed, bless the loved ones waiting for news of those in harm's way. Please grant wisdom and guidance to those in positions of authority as decisions are made about how to handle this tragedy, please bless those, in whatever capacity, who are coming to the aid of the victims of this disaster. Help us to be the instruments of Thy goodness to our fellow man. Please bless the good, and thwart the evil, and bless us, as a nation, to seek Thy face and do Thy will, for in Christ's precious and Holy Name I pray, Amen
Beautiful prayer, LucyJo, in which I join you.
I pray it isn't so that these numbers will be so high....but the devastation is looking ever-more dim....God bless all these people.
