An Airplane Tragedy in the Alps

I feel the sadness for the families of the passengers on board the Germanwings plane that crashed in the French Alps.  It's almost impossible to begin to understand the measure of grief that has come to the them.   I invite you to offer prayer for them.

"Eternal God, may you bring comfort to the families who lost a loved one on the plane which crashed in the French Alps. While we may not understand the motive behind the crash, we ask for your loving hand to rest upon these families.  May the families be able to experience your presence in grieving with them.  May you help them in dealing with all the facets of this tragedy.   Thank you for the work of the first responders and may your blessings be upon all others who give assistance at this time.  In Jesus' name. Amen."
