I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing of you among the peoples. For great is your love, reaching to the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth.
Psalm 57:9-11 (NIV)

Hope In Tragedy


My heart is so heavy with the news of the horrific Connecticut school shooting.  Though tragic and terrible, there is peace in knowing that God welcomed so many precious little ones into his arms today. "Jesus said, 'Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these'" (Matthew 19:14).  I can only imagine the joy on their sweet faces as the children ran into the arms of Jesus... 

Will you join me in praying for the families of the precious ones as they grieve and experience this unimaginable loss.  Pray also that many would seek the face of God in the midst of tragedy, for He is our only hope and salvation.
