Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Matthew 5:4
Although it has been two days, and I live thousands of miles
from Newtown, Connecticut, my sadness over the shooting at Sandy Hook
Elementary hasn’t dissipated. The grief
that this community is enduring is incomprehensible. Yet, as I read the Bible, peruse Facebook and
read articles online, quotes from Scripture blanket me with a peace that I know
only comes from God ….and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding,
will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7
This is what is truly comforting. My prayers go to the community, the families,
and also educators around our nation and the world….that they, too, will be
comforted by God’s Word in this time of sorrow.
