Zone1 Texas

In addition to the kids camps it turns out multiple RV and camping parks were wiped out too. They are finding bodies high up in trees. And trucks...in trees.
 
👍. They had a boating park washed out in Jonestown- the lake rose so fast they were flooded out
Thankfully we got a heads up about the rivers and evacuated areas along the river in Georgetown. Else we would have another hundred dead.

Alright. You convinced me. Prayers to Jesus are going up right now.

Heavenly Father,
We come before You today with heavy hearts, grieving for our brothers and sisters in Texas who have suffered through devastating floods. Lord, You are the God who calms the storm and walks with us through the waters. And so we lift up to You all who are missing, all who have perished, and all who are waiting in anguish for word of loved ones.


Father, surround the grieving with Your comfort.
Bring peace where there is panic, hope where there is despair, and light where there is darkness.
Wrap the arms of Your Spirit around the rescue workers, the first responders, the families who have lost homes, and the churches rising to serve.


We cry out to You not only for safety and restoration, but for a holy nearness. May those who suffer know they are not alone.
May Your Church be Your hands and feet—generous in love, relentless in compassion, fearless in faith.


Lord Jesus, You wept for Your friends.
So we know You weep with Texas now.
Yet we know, too, that You are risen—and because You live, we trust that life and healing will rise again from these waters.


We place every soul, every struggle, and every sorrow into Your sovereign hands.
Make beauty from these ashes, O God.


In Jesus’ name we pray,
Amen.

As the water recedes you can really see the destruction left behind. Massive search is on for survivors.
 
For any of you who are believers (of any sort) take some time in church today to pray for those missing or passed in the area of Texas that experienced such terrible flooding last night.
Sending thoughts and prayers.
 
If there was ever a time to help out a neighbor...
 
boats float right
Evidently so do pickup trucks

This all sounds absolutely horrible but how does it help when I pray? If you tell me how it helps then I might do it.
No different than sending best wishes.
If the prayer part is so detestable, there is simply offering words of encouragement and sympathy.
Why turn this into a personal grudge against religion?
