Resourcing and Praying for Families in a Time of Crisis
“My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.”
In the past several days, many of us have found our flesh and hearts failing. The news of the flooding in Kerr County, including the loss of so many campers and counselors at Camp Mystic, has been almost too much to bear. Our Houston community is deeply connected to this area, this camp, and other camps in the region. We know members of our community who lost children and many of us have a connection to one or many of the families impacted. Even if we don't personally know a family impacted, it has prompted questions on how to discuss tragedy and loss, particularly with our children.
