In our world today with so
much violence going on and those who drive reckless we need to ask God for the
peace that is beyond our own understanding. This begins with the prince of
peace Jesus Christ to be in our hearts.
We hear about the senseless
mass murders here in the United States along with wars in places like the Sudan
and then there is war of terrorism. Along with those also suicides and those
killed in car accidents. Over the weekend on Saturday two fathers and their
sons from Bainbridge Island Washington were killed by a drunk driver after
participating in a basketball tournament in California. A couple boys who
attended the same high school I did were killed in separate accidents in a span
of four days. Bainbridge Island like Gig Harbor is a small town so it affects
everyone in the area. Please pray for the mothers and the remaining siblings
during this time. It is hard to imagine what they are going through. May they
have the peace that comes only from God.
Those that have been given
the gift of encouragement in all these places and the counselors be able to
give all to those who need it. Always important to share how you feel and those
who are spoken to are listening. I really don’t think we have words that we can
say just be able to listen and give hugs along with support.
Although the world seems to
be going down each day we can count on the prince of peace Jesus Christ to be
with us along with family and friends. Amen!
