Father,
We know not your mysterious ways. We know not the purpose for suffering and pain, except that you will walk with us through these darkest of times. Lord we fall at your feet, we confess we are all sinners, all in need of your saving grace. Our little angel, Madeleine, your sweet little girl, has fallen into the hands of evil. We lift our prayers to you, we ask that the day be upon us where she is joyfully reunited with her family. We ask that you comfort her, let her know your presence, feel your love and be at peace. Please forgive us, we know we need to love even our enemies, this would include the ones who cruely snatched Madeleine. Therefore, Lord, we pray that these ones would also come to know you, maybe even as a result of having kidnapped this precious little girl. May they become aware of their evil acts and turn away from sin, turn towards Christ and release Madeleine. At the very least Lord, we pray for Madeleine's family to have closure. To be able to move forward in faith and raise their twins without distraction and broken hearts. In Jesus's name we pray, AMEN.
