In all I am, do, and will write, my aim is to hit God's mark. I will have moments of being misguided as I am not perfect, but know that I serve a God that loves me through it all.
It is four in the morning, and I can't sleep. Been awake for a long time. I am too numb to probably write something coherent here, but I'm going to try...I, and my immediate family, covet your intense prayers right now and for the long haul.
Remember a few weeks back when we all heard the news that Steven Curtis Chapman's teenager accidently backed over and killed the younger sibling with the car? I remember being so full of grief for them and immediately was able to go to the Lord and intercede for not only the entire Chapman family, but for the teenager especially. It didn't make any difference that they are strangers to me.
Horrors on horrors! The same situation just happened yesterday in my own family! My brother's teenager, who was just moving the car for a minute, did not see the one year old sibling crawl near the car. The baby was run over and killed.
My heart, my heart, my heart....I know I am a stranger to you, but I write this in hopes that someone out there will respond the way, a few weeks ago, I was able to respond to the Chapman family.
Holly,
No, I don't know you at all, but my sister sent me this link & asked me to pray. Yes, I have been praying for the Chapmans & I don't know them either. My heart just breaks for all involved, it seems a tragedy too harsh!! I am going now to get on my knees for your brother's family. I don't know what else to say.
I am praying for your brother and his family, especially the teenage son. Please let them know people are praying. And let us know if there is any other way we can show our support in this time.
