Beautful Skies I See .. Broken Hearts They Feel
I look up and I see God's beautiful blue
sky..
When knowing across the our land, others cry..
Devastation brought by tornadoes that swept through entire
Towns...
Leaving behind twisted metal, stripped uprooted trees..
Homes blown apart by a brutal
Violent blackened vortex loud screams ..
Their tortured stunned faces as they seek refuge in each others
Grief..
Wondering if they will rebuild again or if they will ever find
Peace..
Supernatural forces at their worse..
Many wondering , "Is this God's revenge and rage against his creation"?
Where once was neighborhoods and streets ..
Lay match sticks remnants with lives left destitute , near
Defeat..
Lift your voice in prayer to our sovereign God of mercy..
Pray like never before, then lift a hand of purpose for those in pain, lose, with heartfelt sincerity..
Tears wept as I hear their words of sorrow and loss..
Their face filled with shock as they look around to their belongings strewn and tossed..
God hears and knows each fear and heartbreak ..
We must never lose touch or feel bitterness..
For He hears from heaven as each tearful prayer He takes..
It is in this utter feeling of loss and desperation ..
When we are completely broken,
Lost, feeling no hope in our
Situation..
It is then we lift what is left, reach out, grab tight to His ever loving hand..
Asking for His strength, His help,
His omnipotent power so grand..
God have mercy on these your people, as they face the undaunted task..
To bury their loved ones, rebuild their homes and try and not be fixated or tormented by their sadness and past..
Give them grace to face their future with added renewed faith
and strength ..
For without You .. The task is great, the burden heavy, and their endeavor will be fruitless
And they will sink ..
Praising Him now as you renew our broken spirits..
For we cannot start anew and feel our lives progress..
If we don't open our hearts, let God brand and sear it!
I am praising God for his mercy faithfulness and Grace..
To touch those in another town, across our great land, in another place..
