Ricky Sinclair Prays For The Families Affected By Colorado Fires

BAKER, La. - June 19, 2013 - PRLog -- Wildfires have burned 80 to 100 homes in Colorado Springs, and the sheriff said he feared there were fatalities.

Maketa said about 2,300 homes, affecting about 6,400 people, were evacuated, and 7,500 acres had burned since the fire began Tuesday.

The Black Forest area, named for its thick growth of Ponderosa Pines, is not far from last summer's devastating Waldo Canyon Fire that destroyed 346 homes and killed two."It's very, very reminiscent of what we experienced in Waldo Canyon," Maketa said.

Wildfires also were burning in New Mexico, Oregon and California, where a smokejumper was killed fighting one of dozens of lightning-sparked fires. (http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/06/12/colorado-wildfires-homes-burn/2414269/)

“May God protect the families who live in the area of the fires. May He also protect and give grace to the firefighters and workers who are trying to contain the fires from spreading. Lord I ask that minimal damage and quick recovery of those who have lost many assets. Give them peace in their time of need and help them to turn towards you Lord. I know that You work all things for our good. Thank you Jesus, Amen.” prays Bishop Ricky Sinclair.

2 Corinthians 1:3-4 states, “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.” If you have been through a rough time or a time of loss then you can empathize with those who are hurting. God allows us to go through things in order that we may be a help to someone else through counseling and prayer.

God is always there for the hurting and waits for us to turn to Him. “I am thankful for the trials and tribulations I have been through,” says Ricky Sinclair, “It is through those times I learned to lean on God and trust Him more. I got to see Him work for my good when I trust Him.”
