STS-120 has launched and is underway!
Meanwhile, back on the earth, in Southern California, wild fires rage on.

If one believes in god, how does one pray in the face of such an enormous situation?
Lord, don't know what to pray right now. All I can ask is that you would work through the firefighters giving them strength and wisdom across the board from those on the ground to those who lead them. Thank you that such courageous people are a part of our communities. Lord, thank you for the compassionate impulses of those who are volunteering to help the evacuees and are opening up their homes and their resources to help people who have lost all their material possessions. Creator God, with a mere word you can still the winds and raise the humidity of the air so that these devestating fires can be diminished and I ask that you would do so. Amen.
