May God protect your heart, your health and your soul. You are a good man and I pray for your release. I want to make a movie about you..because you are a wonderful man that the world needs to know more about.
God bless you...you are a warrior! Not the terrorists!
I just hope this innocent civilian is saved from these brutal terrorists. Life is worth living, don't take that away from him, he is an ordinary person. A human being should be treated like one. All sympathies to him and his family members. I wish all these sad drama ends by letting him go.
Our thoughs and prayers seeking your safe return to your family are with you and your family. This insane cruelty prevalent throughout the world is not the act of our Saviour but the act of greed, ego and falsehoods. You and your family will remain in our prayers and ask our Lord to sustain you throughout this ordeal. God Bless.
Everyone I know is praying for you Douglas, We have added your names to numerous prayer rolls and lists. May you feel the loving and comforting thoughts that are being sent your way. I pray everyday that you know your family is fighting so hard to have you released.
3:1 LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me. 2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah. 3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head. 4 I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah. 5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me. 6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about. 7 Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly. 8 Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.
May God comfort and keep you in perfect peace through this most horrifying ordeal. May He give you the strength to speak courageously with your captors. And may He turn their hearts to have mercy and compassion on you, and see the error of their ways.
May you remain safe against the darkest of human passions, you are a guiding light to those who see what is wrong in the world. The spirit of the Anzacs keep you safe.
I have reached out to many with your prayer in hand....I hope we will see many more prayers here for you and yours. I feel a bright spot in my heart for you all. God, I hope it's real. Love, Mary greavesmm
A human being is a part of the whole that we call the universe a part limited in time and space he experiences himself his thoughts and his feelings
as something separated from the rest a kind of optical illusion of his conciousness this illusion is a prison for us restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for only the few people nearest us our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living beings and all of nature
I hope things work out favorably for you, Douglas, and for your family. What an awful, horrible ordeal to go through for everyone involved. My prayers are with you at this time. Liz
Our prayers are with you.. Douglas & Family I dont care what people are being paid over there for thier work...it`s not worth the risk!! Life is Short...spend as much time with your family and loved ones as possible! Our Place is with our true home & family. Play together & Stay together! We have enough crime, polution, hungry & homeless people to worry about in our civilized countries. If the people want to act like savages & animals...let them! ....I`m pissed!
O Heavenly Father.. We cry from our hearts for this madness to end. We ask unto you Lord for forgiveness of our wicked past so that our children do not continue to be victims of war. Those who give the most to you O mighty Lord will suffer any amount which is due. It is your mercy Lord, as a forgiving and just God that evil does NOT control your works. I worship you Dear God, My life is to obey you God. I ask in your name Lord God Almighty to give strength to the Families affected by Terrorism. Give strength to the man and women fighting to stay alive be it captured or free. Please Dear God, I ask that you comfort them and protect them from evil doers. Protect them from those that are blasphemous in your name to use it for controlling the life of a hostage.
In your name we Pray Lord that this evil will pass, that you will guide us and give us strength no matter what gets in our path.
As long as this candle burns, may God send grace and courage to Douglas Wood and his family to see them through this horrifying event and bring them safely back together.
Let the beauty we love be what we do. Tenderness & kindness are not signs of weakness and despair but manifestations of strength & resolution. I hope they find this wisdom on your behalf.
You are not alone in this voyage....you are in my thoughts and prayers, may God return you to your family and bring justice to your captors...keep the faith!!!!
