Prayer And Calamity

Prayer And Calamity

You likely heard about the recent earthquake that devastated tens of thousands of Turkish and Syrian families. More than 50,000 are confirmed dead. When we’re confronted with such calamity and suffering, it can be difficult to process. My encouragement to you as a fellow brother or sister in Christ is to take a moment to lift up those who are mourning the loss of loved ones. Pray also for the many rescue and humanitarian workers providing critical support. Each time we pray, our heart softens toward the plight of those who are grieving. In response to those petitions, sometimes miracles arise from the rubble of tragedy. Always remember that a humble prayer can change a lot even in the darkest moments. Now that’s something to pray about!
