Texas has faced a terrible tragedy. Flash floods killed at least 51 people, including 15 children, and swept away over 27 young girls from a Christian summer camp. Governor Greg Abbott has declared a Day of Prayer for the state. This is a time for Texans to come together and ask God for strength.
The Guadalupe River rose 26 feet in just 45 minutes. It destroyed Camp Mystic completely, trapping innocent kids. Rescue teams are working day and night to find the missing girls. Helicopters and boats are searching through dangerous debris.
Parents are heartbroken and begging for news about their daughters. Many families shared stories online, hoping for a miracle. The death toll keeps rising as more bodies are found. This disaster shows how fast nature can turn deadly.
Governor Abbott knows Texans need faith in this hard time. He called for a Day of Prayer to help heal our state. Prayer has always brought Texans together during crises. It reminds us to trust in God’s plan.
While the government sends help, real Texans are stepping up. Neighbors are rescuing neighbors and donating supplies. Churches are opening their doors to shelter families. This is the true spirit of Texas — helping each other without waiting.
Some ask why warnings didn’t come sooner. The weather systems failed to alert people properly. This tragedy exposes how our safety tools are outdated. Leaders must fix these problems to protect lives next time.
Prayer will guide us through the pain. It gives hope to those waiting for missing loved ones. As we rebuild, faith will unite communities across Texas. God hears the prayers of suffering families.
True Texans never give up. We stand strong with the victims and heroes of this flood. Our state will recover because we trust in God and help our neighbors. Prayer is our shield in the darkest hours.
