pills and prayers

Someone once said "We're living off pills and prayers." Isn't that true in today's world? What we see in the news, what happens to us in our life, our concerns, our challenges. No wonder so many of us live off of pills and prayers. I just saw something on the news-a horrible accident involving some kind of tanks. They crashed into the front windshield of this car killing the person. What if it had been someone I'd known? A friend or a family member? Someone just lost a friend or a family member. Sad.
