Pray for Captain Phillips!!

I hope you'll join me in praying for the safe return of Captain Phillips and for comfort and strength of his family. He bravely surrendered himself to pirates in order to spare the bloodshed of his ship crew. He is being held captive by four pirates. It's amazing to me that this man who put his life on the line in order to try and spare the lives of his crew just so happened to occur on Easter weekend. The weekend we remember what Jesus did for us to save us from our certain eternal deaths. I don't know if this man is a Christian or not, but his actions are selfless. It inspires me to want to live so that hopefully others can see a reflection of Christ in my life. I fall all too short I know, but it's moments of reality like this that remind me I can and should do more.
