Dear Lord, I am hearing the two may have drowned. I pray that this is incorrect. Please help these children and their family and everyone else who visits a pool or the beach this summer.

Even if it’s ankle deep you Can get into trouble . If you can’t swim don’t go out over your waist undertow rip current. The waves keep hitting you knocks you down more waves come you can’t get to your feet . And you are moving respect for the ocean she always wins condolences 💐 to the man 🙏🏻
