Please Pray

As I was sitting and typing about my beloved three year old son and reflecting upon all his habits and achievements, Mike called me to say that a man came by his booth looking for his three year old daughter who has gone missing this evening. Just a short time ago. My prayer is that the child has already been found and it was a case of miscommunication...but sometimes that is not the case. Regardless this family needs prayers tonight. I don't know if we will even know if she was found or not. This gives me such a sick feeling in my stomach, especially when I look in on my sleeping babies and think how devastating it would be to lose one. I can't go there....

I pray that this lost child is with someone right now who is trying to reunite him with her parents.
I pray that no harm has come to this little one, and that she is not alone or frightened.
I pray for the parents that God's peace will transcend a terrifying time of searching and questioning.
I pray for the team of people helping them search, may there be great joy tonight as this little one is found and reunited with her parents.
I pray for the best outcome to this terrible event.
I pray that we could somehow know that the child has been found tonight, so we can rejoice also.
Lord, your ways are mysterious, yet I know you are good. I pray that good will result in this scary situation tonight.
In Jesus' name,
Amen

Update: We talked to a security guard tonight on our way out of the fair and asked if this girl had been found. He didn't even know there was a missing child. I'm taking this as a positive response. Every security guard has a radio, so if the girl was missing and there was a search, I think this guy would have known about it. I hope that the fact that he didn't know shows that the family found their lost child before they had time to report it to security.
