Prayer brings peace during California wildfires
Originally appeared on spirituality.com
On a Southern California autumn morning, I woke up to the smell of smoke. I imagined fire racing down the hillside toward my canyon home. Trembling, I went outside to determine where the fire was coming from. I saw it was coming from high on the crest of the Hollywood Hills. Then I called the fire department to check what the evacuation status was for our area. No evacuation was planned, but the fireman said that the winds were creating very unpredictable conditions.
I needed the peace, direction and certainty I could only find with God. I sat down to pray. I had with me my Bible and a copy of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. I am accustomed to letting the inspiration and instruction from these books enrich and broaden my prayers.
