Lord, our heads are spinning as we hear
of two similar, frightening incidents happening in the last week. Two men attempted
to kidnap two different preteen girls in two different American states, both reported Tuesday.
Fortunately, both girls escaped and one suspected kidnapper has been captured.
We pray for the other attempted kidnapper to be arrested as soon as possible. We
celebrate the Escambia County deputies who worked quickly to identify and
apprehend the Florida suspect. We celebrate the dog that protected the girl
from her attempted abductor in Ohio. We pray specifically that the man who
attempted to kidnap the Columbiana girl from his 1970s model red
Ford pickup would be apprehended or turn himself in. May those who know his
vehicle get in touch with law enforcement. Lord, we pray for the preteen girls
who experienced this trauma. We are thankful for their clarity of mind and
strength of body, which enabled them to react quickly and strongly enough to
escape their would-be captors. We know that this is not always the case—even for
the quick and strong. May these girls and their loved ones process and recover
from this terrifying occurrence. May the incidents compel others to train their
children in what to do when a stranger approaches. In Jesus’ name we pray,
amen.
A blog for world-changers who will take a few minutes a day to pray for something beyond their typical concerns.
