House Fire

Sarah and Darin and their family  lost their home in south Kansas City  to fire on Thursday evening.
Thanks to wonderful neighbors, friends and St.Thomas More parish. . .they have had support and comfort and all their immediate needs met.    Laura Story's words and music have meant a great deal to us this week.

          We pray for blessings.
           We pray for peace,
            comfort for family,
             protection while we sleep.
           We pray for healing, 
              for prosperity..
            We pray for your mighty hand to 
               ease our suffering.
            And all the while - 
           You hear each spoken need.
             yet love is way too much, 
              to give us lesser things.


             'Cause what if Your blessings come 
                through raindrops?
              What if Your healing comes through
                tears?
              What if a thousand sleepless nights are
                 what it takes to know You're near?
             And what if trials of this life
                 are your mercies in disguise?
