My heart cries out

How my heart aches tonight for so many who lost loved ones today in the tornadoes of Oklahoma. Parents missing children that were in schools blown down. Hospital unable to be used , farms and livelihoods gone. Souls that were called home too soon. I pray tonight for them. I hug my family tight tonight as I let them know how much I love them. Never let loved ones leave your presence without telling them you love them. You never know when they will be called home.

A dear friend of ours is hurting tonight as well. Family of theirs has been called home unexpectedly. Grief shock and pain overwhelms all of us tonight. I grieve for those left behind, not for those called home. For those called home are at peace and harmony. It is us who remain here that live with their memories at every turn. I pray for all of us survivors of all grief. We need strength and prayers.
