Heavenly Father: Thank you for the gift of Lela and her family -- and for pouring her heart into this essay . This essay reminds us Satan is called the Divider for always trying to divide people while Jesus is the Uniter, always trying to bring us together, even teaching us to love and pray for our enemies. Give us the strength to bare these crosses and grow in Your love and truth through the unity of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
