There is so much going on in the World today, and I wish we all could learn to be more loving. There was a deadly attack in Kabul, Afghanistan on 23 July 2016. At least 80 people were killed and 231 wounded in a suicide bomb attack, on a peaceful demonstration, which was claimed by the Islamic State group. As a result, Afghanistan’s Interior Ministry has issued a ban on public gatherings of all type of the next 10 days. This news leaves us so saddened because human life is so precious. While we have so much to be thankful for, I would like to take this time to offer prayers for our brothers and sisters in the Middle East and all over the World. Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love. I arise today through the strength of Heaven; light of the Sun, splendor of fire, speed of lightening, swiftness of the wind, depth of the sea, stability of the Earth, firmness of the rock. #RyanPhillippe 1 of 2

I arise today through God’s strength to pilot me; God’s might uphold me, God’s wisdom guide me. God’s eyes look before me, God’s ear to hear me, God’s word to speak for me, God’s hands to guard me, God’s way to lie before me, God’s shield to protect me, and God’s hosts to save me afar and anear, alone or in a multitude. Allah, shield me today against wounding, be with me, before me, and behind me. God be in me, beneath me, above me, in my right, and on my left. God, when I lie down, when I sit down, please be in the heart of everyone who thinks of me, and spears of me. In the eyes that sees me, and in the ears that hears me. I arise today though the mighty strength of the Lord of creation. It is You we worship, and upon You we call for help. Guide us to the straight path. The path of those You have blessed, not of those against whom there is anger, nor of those who are misguided.  #RyanPhillippe 2 of 2
