Let's Say A Prayer...

Again, as you know, devastation has hit and our prayers are needed. Let us remember those in Chile and keep them in our prayers today.

Also, I'm sure you've read that Marie Osmond's 18 year old son committed suicide Friday night. We need to keep Marie and her family covered in prayer as well. As a mother, what a horrific thing to go through. My heart just breaks for her.

The whole world is groaning with grief. I am certainly going to be praying.

This is all so sad.

I was supposed to attend a taping of a local news morning show with a friend who has a regular segment on the show. That was on Tuesday of last week. Marie Osmond ended up being on the show that day and, had I gone, I would have had the chance to meet her in person. She was so bubbly and happy on that show. Who could have known what a dark, sad twist her life would take just days later.

So many people suffer in silence with depression and associated challenges. It appears he was one of them. May we ALL make it easier to bring those who struggle out from the shadows and into our love and help.

There certainly has been a lot of tragedy, and yes - lots to pray for.

Hi linda!!!
I agree with you and have been Praying for Chile as well, then when I heard about Marie's young son only 18 commiting suicide, a Mother's and family's worst fear, how sad and tragic. I cried as I thought how do you ever recover from something like that???
God Help her
I Pray, Please God be her comfort
hugs,

Amen - to both.

Another big earthquake in the world so soon after the last.

And Marie Osmonds sons death is heart wrenching. I feel so bad for her and her family.
There is so much depression/bi-polar in the world now - or maybe we just know more about it - either way it is a hard thing to deal with and watch.

God Bless.

I cannot imagine what Marie is going through, I am sure it is beyond anything I would comprehend.

And I don't even have words for the Chilean's. I love them and are praying for them.
