PRAYER FOR THE TORNADO VICTIMS

 .

O Lord of the Heavens,
give courage and a strong heart
to the victims of the swarms of tornadoes
that have terrorized communities
across America's midsection.
.
Help the first-responders and volunteers
work efficiently and thoroughly to
find victims and render them aid.
Give them the stamina and the strength
to be at their best while they
confront the absolute worst.
.
Let those who have lost loved ones
and friends be comforted in their grief.
Let the wounded bodies and minds
be healed in Your good time;
bless them and hold them,
we humbly ask.
.
Let us all learn to accept
what seems to be an inescapable fact:
 the violent and record-breaking
geological and atmospheric events across the globe 
which we are witnessing are but the beginning
 signs and omens of that which is predicted.
Give us the guts to go through the end times
with faith, courage, and a little grace.
Take away our fears.
Still our hearts.
Through Christ Our Lord.
Amen.
