10/19/2024 — Today, 95 POWs returned to Ukraine. It’s always such a joyful time!

From: Ira Kapitonova in Kyiv (Day 968)

God shall arise, his enemies shall be scattered;
and those who hate him shall flee before him!
As smoke is driven away, so you shall drive them away;
as wax melts before fire, so the wicked shall perish before God!
Psalm 68:1-2

We had a few nights with long air raids and explosions (air defense) in Kyiv. I was too tired to notice, so I went back to sleep on my beanbag. However, one of my students prayed this morning, “Thank you, God, that we survived this night.” It was sobering to hear such words from a kid.

Today, 95 POWs returned to Ukraine. It’s always such a joyful time!

Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears us up;
God is our salvation.
Psalm 68:19
