Place of Escape

I would hurry to my place of escape, far away from the wind and storm. (Psalm 55:8 NCV)

Today's meditation:

• Whether the disasters we face are natural or man-made, we can find refuge and comfort by turning to and depending on our loving God.

Pray today:

• For the people and property of Emmanuel College as we face what is left of Hurricane Irma, for protection from harm, for peace of mind.
• For students, staff, and faculty to be protected from the dangers of the storm, for the storm to lose its power and intensity, for the rain and wind to be less than expected around the College, for no tornadoes to be spawned in our area, for the atmosphere to be calmed and returned to normal.
• For all the many people left in the wake of the hurricane who have suffered loss, for recovery to be quick, for both the victims of the storm and those who are working in disaster relief to find the strength and resources they need.

Pray First! Pray Through!
