In the Blink of an Eye

John's oldest sister and her husband lost everything they owned today when their house burnt to an empty shell, including their two beagles who were in the house.

Just something to contemplate when we are frustrated about the setbacks life hands us - most of which don't involve being left without even a change of underwear.

A good lesson for me, certainly.

Any prayers you can spare for them would be appreciated.

Are they taking financial/item donations? I would be happy to do both along with my prayers <3

That is horrible and such a loss with the animals, too! Got lots of prayers and maybe a few bucks if needed!
