I live in the community surrounding Virginia Tech where the horrible massacre of 32 students and faculty took place last April. The students are returning to classes today, and it would be wonderful if you could remember the students and staff in your prayers.
Also, 5 female students were seriously sickened over the weekend by carbon monoxide poisoning in their off-campus apartment. Please pray that they fully recover and are able to return to school as soon as possible. Thank you and God Bless.
REVELATION 6:1-9; 7:14-17; 21:4; 22:11-13 1. And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the nise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. 2. And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. 3. And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. 4. And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another and there was given unto him a great sword. 5. And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances. 6. And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine. 7. And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. 8. And I looked, and behold a pale horse: And his name that sat on him was Death, and hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger; and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. 9. And when he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
14. And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they wich came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. 15. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them. 16. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. 17. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
4. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, not crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
11. He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he whichh is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righeous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still. 12. And , Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every nam according as his work shall be. 13. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
My friend's daughter has returned to VA Tech and I pray for the safety and healing of everyone regarding this tragic situation. May the Lord be with all who are involved.
Lord Jesus I lift up the community of Virginia tech and I ask you to please heal, protect, guide and bless them all with peace and a happy and successful school year. I ask you to heal the pain and ease the grief of everyone involved in the horror of the spring and I ask you to please heal and bless the students involved with the carbon monoxide poisoning. Lord I also ask you to heal her ALS and work a mighty miracle in her life. I ask you to protect and heal her marriage and I ask you to guide her medical team and all the researchers to find a cure and better testing and treatment options. St Jude St Anthony St Anne and mother mary please pray for them all amen
Thank you for your prayers for me regarding my depression and anxiety. All the prayer is helping, I am starting to feel a bit better. I will pray for those students, what an awful waste of lives. May God be with their families as they go on without their children. May God be with you in a special way as you live with your disease; He has given you such a positive attitude that we can all learn from.
