Chaplains Wolf Pack Memo
There are times when our names are more appropriate than nicknames, this is one of them, and obviously important, I received a text a short while ago from Tony aka Cush, that Craig, aka Cypher had lost two co workers on his job site this day.. Two men who will not be going home as Tony said .. Craig requested prayer.. I'm going to request that both Edward aka TXConstable, and Tony also leave prayer because for one both are uniquely blessed with our Lords presence, and offer prayer superior to mine, and because frankly my heart breaks not just for the men, and their family's, but also for Craig.. Losing someone you know is a horrible thing to go through.. Craig, my friend, I'm so sorry.. I hope our words will fill a void, and that you can pass on to the family's our sadness for the loss.. If anyone else feels the need to leave a prayer or comment for Craig please do as well..
dear Lord
We don't know how many years you'll give each one of us.. Nor do we know what the future brings.. We're told your return will be sudden and no one is to know before that time.. Sometimes in life death makes a sudden appearance.. It takes the ones we know, and love.. and it leaves us with an emptiness that words can't touch.. We hope our prayer will help in some small way.. We lift up the souls of Craig's two friends this day, as we lift up our eyes to you in prayer, and pray that you receive those souls in heaven.. We pray for peace for the family's, and we pray for closure for all that were touched by this tragedy.. Please guide us all to remember that death can be a sudden thing, and to remember to ALWAYS live a life that allows for that sudden passing, be it in telling our loved ones how much we love them, our friends that they matter to us, our simply to be as free from anything that the Lords presence in us has deemed "wrong"..'that should we die a sudden death, we will be ready, and our friends and family comforted.. Please here our prayer this day, and have everyone involved or touched in the palm of your loving hands.. In your Holy name.. Amen
