Deuteronomy 30:19-20

I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Therefore choose life, that you and your offspring may live, loving the Lord your God, obeying his voice and holding fast to him, for he is your life and length of days, that you may dwell in the land that the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.

Steven Curtis Chapman

Please pray for the family of Steven Curtis Chapman.

For those of you who have not yet heard, his youngest daughter (one that they had adopted from China a few years ago) was hit by their car last night when one of her brothers ran over her. It was all an accident, and he did not see his little sister in the driveway at the time. I know that their hearts must be broken over this tragedy. Please lift them up in your prayers.
  • Pray for the whole family as they deal with this death.
  • Especially pray for the brother who was driving the car (he will never forget this).
  • Pray that through this, the Chapman's can continue to look to God and show Him to others as they always have.
We must always remember that God has a plan in our lives. We may not always understand why these things happen, but He is still in control. He still loves His children. And He will always be right there for them.

"And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose." - Romans 8:28 (ESV)

Matt
