I woke up this morning and saw flames in the west.

These wild fires have brought pain to the west.

I’m praying for all my family who stays in the west.

They’ll make it through these fiery days in the west.

A pyrotechnic hurricane has burned through the California coast.

Destroying lives. I’m sending faith to those who need it most.

Through precious land are these wild fires breaking through.

Nevertheless I have faith every Californian will make it through.

Though every one of these fires burn long.

The resolve of the West coast stands valiant and strong.

Wash away the flames and put out the lighters.

This will be a day of resurrection for California’s fire fighters.
