30 years ago: Challenger Disaster Live on CNN- January 28, 1986

Our days may come
to seventy years,
or eighty,
if our strength endures;
yet the best of them
are but trouble and sorrow,
for they quickly pass,
and we fly away.

Psalm 90:10 (NIV)

----

[NEWwoman]

Teach us to number our days,
that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

Psalm 90:12 (NIV)

------------------------------

Heavenly Father,

As we come upon the 30th anniversary of the Challenger disaster, may we reflect on our mortality. May we also honor our brave men and women, home and abroad, who gave their lives to protect us.

Forgive us, Lord, for those wasted years of wandering. Give us repentance and fill us with Your Spirit to do Your will. May we use the days that you have given us on this earth to glorify You.

Protect all those who go into harm's way to defend us. Shield Your servants from attacks on all fronts. And through the power of Your Spirit, may America will be great again.

In Jesus Name we pray,

Amen

-----------

Give thanks to the LORD,
for He is good;
His love endures forever.

Psalm 118:1 (NIV)

Keep praying for America

My late husband worked with all of them. He was out of town when this disaster happened but our younger daughter and I went to the memorial service here. A very, very sad day.

[laplata]

Amen.

[dadfly]

Amen.

your wonderful post put me in mind of some favorite gospel lyrics:

I’ll fly away. Oh Glory! I’ll fly away.
When I die, Hallelujah by and by.
I’ll fly away.

When the shadows of this life have grown.
I’ll fly away.
Like a bird through prison bars has flown.
I’ll fly away.

may God continue to bless you.

[NEWwoman]
