Sad, Sad,

That is the feeling in my heart for all the families who lost loved ones in the senseless killings in Conn.  The temptation is to give lectures about right and wrong but that is not the need, the need is for compassion and love.  I can only imagine the pain these families are feeling, and I pray for them.  Evil is a terrible monster and those who deny that evil exist only serve it.  Blame is a natural outcome but let’s make sure we blame the cause not the symptom.  Our world seems to prefer dealing with symptoms over causes and with that approach nothing is resolved.  Jesus is all about causes and He took dead aim at the real issue, the human heart.  There is right and wrong and the human heart is fertile ground for wrong.  What we all need today is a change of heart and that is just what Jesus offers all of us.  Jesus is our hope, our only hope.

2Ch 12:14 And he did evil, because he did not prepare his heart to seek the LORD.

  1. Indeed, Jesus is the only Hope we have and the only Hope we need. I too grieve for the precious souls lost in Connecticut. The pain is tremendous. I pray for the Comfort that only Heaven can afford to manifest itself to these broken-hearted families.
