So i found out today that my housemate Angela's (co-KSL @ Queen's) classmate just survived a huge tragedy. Therese is one of few females in the Apple Math Engineering program, and on her way to Florida with her family, they got into a car accident. Her father, brother, and sister were all killed. The only two survivors were her and her mother. Just last week Angela spent a couple days with them, and Angela says most of Therese's classmates have spent time with her and her family as well. Please pray for Therese's family during this HORRIBLE time. Pray that Angela has the words and the compassion to share with Therese and her classmates, that she can answer the tough questions that are already arising like "How can such bad things happen to good people?" Her classmates know she's a Christian and so she's getting a lot of God related questions. Again, please pray that she has the discernment and wisdom to mourn with them and that she can answer the questions with wisdom and love and grace.
thanks so much you guys. You're all so awesome and I love that we pray for each other like this. thanks for being such great honest people.
