The WORLD Lost Thousands of INNOCENT Lives Within 24 HOURS
Japan Earthquake: A powerful 7.0 magnitude earthquake has struck off the west cost of Japan.
Baghdad Funeral Bombed: A suicide bomb attack in the funeral killing 21 people and 46 injured.
Beirut ISIS Suicide Bombing: Suicide bomb attack killing 43 in the densely populated district is part of the southern suburb of Beirut known as Dahyeh.
Mexico Earthquake: 4.3 Magnitude earthquake leading to 8 earthquakes in the past 7 days.
Lebanon Suicide Bombings: Twin suicide bombings last night, at least 43 killed and 200 injured.
Paris Terrorist Bombings: Terrorist attacks in various places resulting in death of more than 100 people.
It is not Paris we should pray for
It is the world
It is a world, in which Beirut, reeling from Bombings two days before Paris, is not covered in the press media
A world in which a bomb goes off at a funeral in Baghdad and not one person update’s says “Baghdad” because no white person died in that fire
Pray for the world that blames a refugee crisis for a terrorist attack. That does not pause to differentiate between the attacker and the person running from the very same thing you are
Pray for a world where people are walking across countries for months, their only belongings upon their back, are told they have no place to go
Say a prayer for Paris by all means, but pray more, for the world that does not have a prayer for those who no longer have a home to defend
For a world that is falling apart in all corners, and not simply in the towers and cafes we find so similar
