For last 2 years we have been going through a lot it's been chaos all over the place even these wildfires in the states and also in New York car accidents fires everywhere and buildings houses people are missing animals are missing people being killed shot down all ages. Kids for bringing guns into school. Hate crime. Riots. Protesting. Now this new variant disease is out. People being stabbed all ages. Crime in the train station. And suicidal. So this man fatally struck by a train there's a lot of reasons that things happen for this reason. we know that. Who knows what this man was feeling his mind. People are suffering depression. anxiety. Feeling alone. Has fear in their life. Some don't have family. People have suffered from an addiction of drugs. My prayer is for him. GodπŸ•Š I pray for this young man who was struck by a train I asked you Jesus if he never repent to you I ask you please to forgive his sins and commit his Spirit into your hands allow him to rest in peace in heaven with you forever AMEN

And my condolence to the family members who lost this love 1 through a tragedy of this person's life. And I pray this in Jesus name amen. And we all could come to agreement my message I have gave here it's all true we are all going to something for the last 2 years. We should pray for one another because December 25th. It's about Jesus who is born on that day by the Blessed Virgin Mary who gave birth in Bethlehem of Israel the city of David. Let's thank God but he gave his son to us into this world so we can be saved from our sins on Christmas morning. God loves us all but he does not love the sin in this world that's destroying it B evilness and it becomes Darkness. And the evil in this world it's destructive it hurt and Families and children may God protect us with his angels from Heaven merry Christmas and a happy safe new year of 2022 be careful and stay well amenπŸ•ŠπŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ™πŸ™

Unfortunately this time of the year is the worst for suicides and for PD and Transit personnel. On average there are 35 people struck by trains each year in Bklyn, that was till the virus hit, I’m sure the numbers are even higher now. Manhattan was averaging well over 100 people struck prior to the virus. πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™
