In the aftermath of the tragedy at Virginia Tech this past Monday, we are all wondering why? And what is it about April that is bringing out the beast with too much regularity? Virginia is a long way from where I live, but the evil and the hate and the hopelessness that causes these events isn't.
We need to pray for our nation today - right now - and specifically for students on college campuses, high schools, junior high schools, - every school. May God lift the despair and fear from the hearts of our young; may they be merciful as God is to them; may they be respected and respect others; may they be strong and courageous in their actions and character; let them long for and be instruments of Your peace; God, make us a people of humility, of compassion, -people who will take responsibility for our actions. Make us grateful for what we have and deliver us of the stupor of taking our rights and liberties and freedoms and daily blessings for granted. Keep our children safe, God, today…tomorrow…and as the days go on. Give them peace in their minds and hearts and emotions. Send people to rescue the hurting and desperate, Lord. Send some one…
