Needed prayers for us!!!

[Sarriah]

I dont know if anyone has heard of the fires in Colorado, well i live there and its getting bad. I can walk out my front door and see burned pine needles on my stoop.
79,000. THOUSAND acers burned as of the last update today. going to be OVER 100,000 by nightfall, with 0 zip nada zlech contained. There are currently 8 different fires bruning right now, with the biggest one being the Hayman fire. I live not to far from that fire and its burned 25,700 acers it self. SO EVERYONE PLEASE PRAY FOR RAIN AND FOR OUR FIREFIGHTERS LIVES HERE.

Dont want to bring anyone down but this hurts in ways that some people only know all to well. And others can only feel in their hearts.

BORU

[Prophet Reality]

OKay, as of the latest reports.... The Haymen fire has consumed well over 76,000 acres by itself. They are hoping to get some control of it within the next 24 hours. This is the largest and most destructive forest fire in the history of the state of Colorado. So please keep your prayers going for rain, we can use all that we can get.

[Lovediva]

I wish I could send you the rain that we have had here the past week Sar...my prayers are with you and the people of Colorado....

M45 must be a very busy fireman....I pray for him as well...

Be safe!!!

[Murphy]

Here's a hymn of prayer, re-worded for firefighters and homeowners:

Eternal Father, strong to save,
Whose arm protects from birth to grave.
Who's mighty forests and their trees,
set humble mankind on its knees.
Oh, send your angels, sight unseen,
To those who keep them safe and green.

O Christ! Whose voice the waters heard
And sent them raining at Thy Word,
Who walked on the foaming deep,
And calm amidst its rage didst sleep;
Oh, hear us when we pray for rain,
For those who toil on in vain!

Most Holy Spirit! Who didst brood
Upon the chaos dark and rude,
And bid its raging fires cease,
And give, for wild confusion, peace;
Oh, hear us when we pray to you,
Protect our homes and loved ones too!

O Trinity of love and power!
Our family shield in danger’s hour;
From rock and tempest, fire and foe,
Protect us wheresoever we go;
Thus evermore shall rise to Thee
Glad hymns of praise from land and sea.

[scorpi42]

Sorry sar im not religeous but you are in my thoughts and i will also get my group to send vibes and healing

[Scarecrow]

may the god of rain pour down on you and help the firefighters.

[Prophet Reality]

Wel the two that have been the wirst have not relented. The Hayman ires is now up around 85,000 acres and the wind has turned it back on itself as of alst report. Still going though. And the Cold seem fire in Glenwood Springs is at 10,200 acres now and about 5% containtment. My prayers are out to the firefighters and to especially M45. I hope that he is safe.

[nikanik]

My prayers go out to you all and all of those who are in danger. Rain will come soon because with these many prayers going up some kind of blessing will come down.

[Sarriah]

THANK YOU EVERYONE i cant tell you how much this means to me that you guys responded. I got some more bad news today on top of the fires not bein contained. There is some JACK ASS out there who is runnin around setting the gosh dang fires for him self!!! i can not tell you how mad i am that someone would do that!!!! I am in tears of frustration and anger that they are risking the lives of so many people and animals and homes. it pisses me off more than i can say on here. ARGH!!!!!!!

I did not know that m45 was here i thought he was elsewhere, but my prayers are with him and his family too, im sure he is fighting night and day to make sure we are safe and i thank god that there are people out there like that.

Again thank you everyone for you replies!

*hugs and tears

I’m sorry I only now found this thread, but I have been aware of your situation as my 82 year old mother lives in Denver and told me Sunday night she had to turn her AC off because of the smoke that was being sucked inside. My son in-law is a firefighter as was a close uncle. Fire is both known and understood here.:eek:
My inner thoughts are with you as I, along with legend and scorpi42 “pray” :confused: (or by whatever name you give it) do send “SPECIAL” emotions to you.

[PantyFanatic]

As has been stated, there seems to be some VERY sick and dangerous members of our species both in Colorado and Canada that have been “seen” starting fires. If this is an UNQUESTIONABLE fact, do we have a responsibility we would prefer to defer?
I am not seeking any response, only giving food for thought (the quality that is suppose to set us apart from other species).
If a rattle snake were laying eggs in the closet of a loved one, should I only brake the eggs or should I seek out the laying snake and end the danger for what has meaning to me in this life?
Please understand that it is not with youthful ignorance or haste that I even consider action against my own kind. Do we not do worst because of a philosophical, duty, or even just the difference in a uniform?
The true magnitude of the destruction and negative effects from these fires are beyond our conscious comprehension.
Dealing with only what I do know, do feel are my responsibilities of stewardship, and the FACTS before me, I know that a 30.06 will reach as far as I can clearly see.

[Mercury_Maniac]

wow i didn't know that is was so bad there, well i hope you get plenty of rainy weather to moisten that place up, i don't pray much but i will for this, hope it poors like a muthafucka there

[Oldfart]

Trust in God, technology and the massed manpower

of a firefighting fraternity.

You've only the weather to count on otherwise.

[dicksbro]

Our grounds are saturated with water. Hopefully some can be re-directed to Colorado and any other place in need. Prayers continue.

[Neige]

My prayers go out to you too... I just wish all of the rain we've been having here for the last week could move out to Colorado and everywhere else it's needed...

[Prophet Reality]

If no one noticed I am in Colorado also. Thank you one and all for your thoughts and prayers. I have spent most of the day with a group of friends helping to run water to the people we can so that they do not get dehydrated while fighting this blaze of hell. And I agree with you PF on your thoughts.

And now for an update. As of 10pm loacl time the Haymen fire is up to 90,000 acres and is now 5% contained. It is spreading west and southwest I think. Which means that it has moved back over itself, so it is easier to be contained. When I was near the site, it was not fun and there was so much ash and smoke falling. Someone commented that it reminded them of a volcano when it explodes, without the lava.

The Glenwood springs fire is over 10,500 acres I believe and not sure how much is contained on that one. But it is defintely being contained at this point. The main problem with all of these fires is the winds that don't seem to be slowing much.

But once again thank you one and all for oyur prayers and thoughts.

[Sarriah]

Thanks for the update!!

and thanks for your kind words again everyone!!

[love_2licku]

You know Im right there with ya hun. Just put on some John Michael Montgomery and hope that song plays again.

[andrew]

Sariah

You have my prayers fully, Ihope this ends soon and your view is peaceful.

Thinking of you - very best of all things to you.

Andrew

[Prophet Reality]

Well thanks Sarriah for acknowledging my updates. unfortunately, I have no idea what it is like at the moment, been busy elsewhere and do some rather unforunate things today.

[2-4-tea]

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family I hope all will do well

[Grumble]

I live in bushfire country so I know how bad these things are. Last year an idiot throwing a cigarette out of his car window started a huge blaze that came within 100 metres of my house.

It is truly frightening and the way it jumped 400 metres was terrifying. some years ago half of Tasmania was ablaze and over 100 people died along with property and stock destroyed.

There are a growing number of idiots light them on purpose for whatever perverted pleasure they get out of it. They should be strung up by the balls.

So Sar and PF I hope things come under control very quickly. My thoughts and prayers are with you guys.

[lixnlix69]

I don't pray but I have you in my thoughts and I am sending positive energy your way. Sar and Prophet.....be safe......I love you guys!

Mrs. Lix

[Prophet Reality]

Well I am here tonight to sadly report that they discovered who started our biggest fire in history. A member of the US Forest Services started the fire when she was trying to burn a letter from her estranged husband. It appears that this lady received the letter that morning and while patrolling the campgrounds that night decided to burn the letter. She lit the letter with matches from her purse and set it into a fire circle. That was the cause of the biggest forest fire of Colorado. She was arrested today and will be brought before a Federal Magistrate tomorrow. The fire is now 47% contained, and if I heard the reports correctly, doesn't sound like it has spread any further.

[Sarriah]

You beat me to the update PR hehe.. well thats the update as of right now. Thanks everyone again for their kind words. its ok if you dont pray neither do i lix hehe but thanks for the words anyway :D :D

[dice45]

Hearing about the Colorado fires even in the German news for the last days, frightening! My best wishes for good luck and strong will to all having to fight it!

[Sarriah]

Thank you Dice :D

[MissX]

Have been away for a while, but wanted to send some hugs your way, how are you folks doing out there?
