Sunday – 2nd Addition

I would invited you to thank God for those whose lives were spared in Time’s Square last night.  Leroy Wilson’s young granddaughter was there when the bomb was found.  Robert Wilson’s daughter had planned to be there, but the plans were changed.  Thank God these two and many more lives were spared.  Pray for those who want to harm innocent victims.  Pray they accept God and let Him turn their lives around.
