A prayer for Karen

 In Jesus name. Lord, take my heart and lay it in your hand. Take its hurts and burdens because you know so much more on how to ease it. Lord, heal the pain, heal the world. Lord, please be with Karen's family as they journey through this very painful journey. Let the suspect be caught Lord not necessarily by human hands but by Your hands Lord. Let him see the wrong that he has done. Lord, I pray that Karen is right next to you right now and that she is happy. This is your fight Lord, as always. Don't let humans be incharge of vengeance lest they sin, take over Lord. Heal Karen's father's pain for I cannot imagine Lord his pain as a father. Lord, keep him sane, keep his heart soft and let it not harden. Keep her mother in your embrace Lord, for no one can replace a mother-daughter bond. And let her friends keep peace and forgiveness in their hearts. Heal this flesh 4th-degree wound that this imperfect word has inflicted on Karen's family, Lord. I ask all these things, in Jesus name. Amen.
