Tragedy

I'm sitting here trying to absorb the news I received this morning. My dear friend, Kim, called me with the devastating news that her nephew had been killed in a car accident. It was like a blow to the stomach. We used to live down the street from this young man and Meg used to babysit him. I'm just stunned. His mother is one of the most precious ladies I've known and he was her only child, whom she adored. I'm just heartbroken for the whole family, whom I've adopted as my own.
Please pray for this family. You don't need their names. God knows who it is. Hug your children, your spouses, your friends.

    That is so sad. I feel so sorry for his poor Mom. For what it's worth a total stranger is sending a few prayers their way.

    It's worth an a lot, Jo. Thank you for your prayers and please keep them coming. Visitation is tonight and the funeral is tomorrow. We have some very difficult days ahead. This wonderful mom is struggling through the days. Love, K

Professionally. I have written 15 books in six languages, and have studied it all my life. I think there is something monumentally large afoot, and I do not believe it is just a banking crisis, or a mortgage crisis, or a credit crisis. Yes, these exist but they are merely single facets on a very large gemstone that is only now coming into a sharper focus. Something of historic proportions is happening. I can sense it because I know how it feels, smells, what it looks like, and how people react to ...

Needing more prayers

My beautiful niece was in a car accident last night along with her boyfriend. Both were badly hurt and are in need of your prayers. I just talked with Alonna. They are getting ready to take her into surgery to repair the damage done to her face. One side was pretty messed up. Sounds like she's in for some extensive surgery. I didn't ask her how her boyfriend is doing, but it sounds like he got hurt even worse than did she but is expected to be okay. Alonna is my baby brother's only child. Please pray for a speedy recovery for both kids. I'll let you know how they progress. Thank you so much.
