Heavy Hearted....

I need to write that my heart is so heavy right now.  I've been following the Tornado stories online and there's a family in OKC that is just remaining on my heart and mind.  The Himil family.  It was a mother and her 3 children.  They are in the bathtub trying to stay safe, and the tornado demolished their homes, sucked one of the children out of her arms.  The mom is 5 months pregnant and is in critical condition, the 5 year old girl is going to be okay but remains in the hospital, the 3 year old boy Ryan has been missing since that night. They found his body this morning near a lake by their house, and the 18 month old boy sustained injuries and died shortly after the tornadoes.  I absolutely cannot imagine.  I pray that this family can find comfort and peace, that they can piece their lives back together as they start completely over.  I pray for the dad that is overseeing this situation right now, it's truly unbelievable!

This is the picture of their house.  I cannot believe it.
Please PRAY for this family for months to come, they need support more than ever!

Psalms 34:18 ~ The Lord is near the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.
Isaiah 55:8-9  ~ "My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts," says the LORD, "And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine." 
In times of trial and tragedy we shouldn't question God. We will never be able to comprehend his thoughts. We must support each other, use each situation to continue to glorify Him, and show people the love of Christ.
