A Prayer for Nice, France

Father, would you make it obvious that you are there, present and intimately with the devastated people in Nice, France? Would you rescue, comfort and heal, and would you motivate and lead your people to love, carry and counsel the wounded and distraught? And would you prove your grace in Christ to the families from all over the world who's children, brothers, sisters, fathers and mothers are among the wounded? And while government leaders opine and strategize, would you make it evident again that Jesus is the answer, the Spirit the worker, and the church the vessel--one here and one there--everywhere loving their neighbors as themselves? In Christ, I pray. Amen.
