Devastation

Prayers - Peace Prayer

By Brenda Scott

Devastation

WDevastation200x150
So many faces from other nations
coming to offer their help.
Mothers, sisters, aunts,
fathers, brothers, uncles,
cousins, nieces, nephews,
children are all gone.

Little things are reasons to be grateful:
comfort, a smile, hugs, tears.
The devastation makes us hurt,
it is not for us to question why.
We know You have made a way
for the hunger and the pain
to ease through others
giving their money, time, prayers—
Your will be done!
