Hear My Prayer

Lord hear my prayer.
                               
                         I pray for the families in Nashville Tennesse,
                           who just lost precious family members...
               Mike Hill (61), Katherine Koonce (60), Cynthia Peak, (61) 
         Evelyn Dieckhaus (9), Hallie Scruggs (9), and William Kinney (9).
                                    
                   Please be with their families and give them healing,
               and peace knowing their precious souls are with you now.
                           This isn't goodbye... It's see you again.

                           Father, I pray for The Covenant School.
                        For those kids and families that attend there 
                           that you would give them peace as well
            and protect them and all those who were involved in this event.

        I praise you Father that those officers acted quickly and stopped the 
                           shooter and that nobody else was killed.

.       Please protect the police as they are in a dangerous line of work.

           I pray for our nation that you would protect us from any harm,
                            and that more people get to know you

        That those who are lost will find your light and want to be with you,
                                  to spend eternity with you Lord.

                              I pray these things in your holy name,
                                                    
                                                    Amen.

Thank you Paula. That was such a terrible and deviating day.. You are so sweet, I will try to write more. I just have been so busy and haven't really been inspired to write lately. I will get back to it soon though. Stay safe and God bless!

Very touching Anna. I too lift my prayers for all those who have been so terribly affected by such horror in this case as well as the others which have occurred. Horrific each and every time. Hugs to you my friend.
