Lord, kindly heed the lementations of the bereaved families of terrorist attack in Sri Lanka and all over the world:
Our hearts are breaking. We feel such sadness, such huge grief. We miss our loved ones. Nothing can fill this void we have deep inside. We thank you for your reminder that you are near to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit. That is us right now. Please dear God, bring your comfort and your help. Soothe the pain in our hearts, send us gentle reminders that your Presence is with us. We know that you will turn this circumstance around for good somehow. We believe that you bring us through this storm to the other side of our grief.
We choose to hope in you...
“The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” (Psalm 34:18)
With empathy and love.
