As a former teacher, then administrator,
who practiced storm drills every year in Texas,
my heart and soul are unspeakably devastated
that children lost their lives at school
from a tornado in Oklahoma
May 20, 2013.
Oh, that we teachers could always
protect our students...
sometimes we cannot...
even though we dedicated our lives
to loving and caring for others' children
as our own...
Prayers for all the parents and other
family members who lost little ones...
Prayers for the teachers, administrators,
and support staff who will
always remember those little ones and
whose hearts are aching for their students and
with their parents...
Prayers for the families of
everyone who lost loved ones,
especially those teachers who gave their lives
covering their students...
Prayers for the survivors who will never
forget the devastation and loss
suffered on that day...
Prayers for the responders
who have to carry those images with them
the rest of their lives...
Thank you, Lord, for providing
those who willingly make the sacrifices
for others...
