ASKING FOR PRAYERS FOR THE US WESTERN STATES....WASHINGTON, OREGON, AND CALIFORNIA...WE ARE ON FIRE HERE...over 100 fires going...it is so dry no water...they say that California has no water and is bad...Oregon and Washington is a tinder box...Washington has lost over 500,000 acres just from one fire...Oregon Has lost so many also. lightening strikes and human errors are causes..still no rain..The air here in my area was horrible to breathe from the fires so many miles away...its a little better today. Homes lost, people and animals have perished...the picture below is by Chelan Washington.......

Thank you Canada, Australia, Arkansas, Alaska and the many others that are here helping us control and contain them...National Gaurd is suppose to be sent over also.....

I'm in Washington (Whidbey Island) thank heavens we've only had a few small fires that only damages a few trees, brush and pastures. Our air is even bad here from the fires in the Eastern part of the state....can't imagine how awful it is for the people in the burn zones :( We're supposed to get some rain this weekend....I just worry that if we get heavy rains then there will be flooding...these people don't need this on top the everything else. They are even asking help from New Zealand. It's now over 900,000 acres.

Dear Deanna, I wish we could send over some of the torrential rain we have here on the south coast of New South Wales. People have been asked to relocate as the flood waters are flooding their homes. I've just seen the 6.00pm news and there are Kangaroos hopping through the main street trying to find higher ground. Now that's something you don't see all the time. May all the firefighters be protected as they fight your horrendous fires. I also pray that you will receive rain soon. Love Chris

I so know this...I live in Southern California and we are dryer than dry...the past 4 years we have been in a severe drought...we have been continually asked to decrease our water usage...and are down to the bare minimums...the fires are so unpredictable and s.pread so very quickly. We could all use some prayers for rain as well as the safety of our fire fighters...

Prayers for the entire western states. It is horrible what is going on and I pray the geoengineering is not the cause.
