Shine light into our darkness.
Heal our broken hearts.
We do not understand when innocents are slain and innocence is stolen.
Evil stares us in the face and dares us to believe that God is always good and Emmanuel is always with us.
Come to us, Prince of Peace.
Yesterday, a school shooting left 20 schoolchildren and six adults dead. The media assault is continuous and attempts to explain the unexplainable. Why? we ask. Our questions expose our greatest fear, that we are not in control of our lives. The truth is, we are not.
We can live only in the confidence that Emmanuel is with us, and when our time comes to die, He is with us. Even if our death comes in something as horrific as a school shooting. God.with.us.
