A prayer for Oz!

Many thoughts have crossed my mind since the start of the tragic wild fires that have spread through Australia.  The greatest being an incredible sadness at the tragic loss of life of both humans and animals.

I remember the tragic mass tsunami or planet faced several years back and my heart cries out, "God, why is this happening?". All the innocent lives lost make no sense whatsoever. 

Sin is a wild fire that can sweep through our lives at any time and as much as we see this happening in the natural world, so too, sin has devastating consequences.  

The only thing that can wash away our sins and begin to heal the brokenness is an outpouring of the Spirit of God on us, to cleans us and wash away all unrighteousness.

God, in your mercy, please make ran fall in mass on Australia now and quench the fire on earth and heal their land.
