Late last week, there was a fire in an apartment building in a nearby town. Two young children were injured (brothers, ages 2 and 4). Found out yesterday that Father called them home. The family could really use some prayer, as could all the residents of the building. I'm not sure why, but I've had a very strong feeling to post this. (Have no clue who they are)
Thanks
Tom

Father God, look down with grace and mercy upon these parents in this time of tragedy. Come into their hearts, and ease their pain and misery. Let them know their children are with Jesus. Be with them on the difficult walk that lays before them, granting them peace and strength to go forward with their lives. We pray as one, for your glory and praise, in Christ Jesus name amen.


Oh, I feel so deeply for those folks.

Thanks, Tom. This is the definition of the word "tragedy." And it happens, sometimes. It's just the way the world works. Prayers up for the family and friends. I'm sure the children are happily with Jesus now. He always said, "Suffer the little children to come unto me." But those who remain behind have a big hole left in their lives now. May Christ bring them peace.

Tom, We always wonder why children die and there is no answer that makes sense to us. Only God know why.

Father, Please comfort and console the parents of the two young boys. Wrap Your loving arms around them and help them through the grief that has to be intense. Father, through Your love and grace they will make it through the most difficult time in their lives. AMEN
