Prayers....

Last night I came up blank when trying to do a post on this blog. No projects completed, no cute pictures of the children...

Now, it's 4:30 am and my husband heard that a friend he grew up with in California just passed away in a drowning accident.

It chases away all thoughts of sleep - my heart goes out to his sweet family.

It takes me back to a few years ago when my husband's younger brother also tragically lost his life.

If you pray, I would ask that you say a prayer for this family, they need your prayers.

I believe this is why God sent his Son to the earth, on our side we see tragedy, a life needlessly cut short, but because of Christ's love, there is victory - he is with the Lord. 

And to all those hurting,

He has promised to be a father to them.
