God-children

So, last Monday I was to learn that one of my God-children had dropped off the face of the Earth.  No calls connected, even his work was looking for him!  So lots of prayer but no answers.

Tuesday came and went with no word, then Wednesday, and Thursday.  Nothing by anyone!  Of course his is a small town and I learned from his wife that two of his friends were missing as well!  Camping trip maybe?

Friday, I got the call....
He was in Las Vegas - oh dear!
He had been at the Sunday night concert massacre!
In trying to escape, he and his friends were targeted.
Both of the friends died instantly.
He lost it and had to be sedated.
They released him Thursday night.
So, prayers for him would be appreciated.

And though horrible, especially with survivors guilt, I am glad he lived ....
I never met his friends.

Then last night my youngest God-daughter made me stew and brought it over!
I have not seen her in nine years.
She is much troubled, or at least was.
She has grown into an admirable young lady!
So here is to hoping for no repeats in her lifetime!

So random,
So much in need of prayer,
Gotta be a reason ......
