Prayers and Condolences

My deepest condolences to those who lost friends and family in the two appalling attacks this Friday on schoolchildren.My prayers as well for the first responders and others who dealt and are dealing with the aftermath. May the Lord use this to bring you together rather than pull you apart. May you console each other and know that many are keeping you in their prayers. May your sorrow and grief ultimately strengthen you to help others. May you support and love each other, remaining thoughtful and kind through your own grief to ease the grief of the others. May the Lord hold you all in His heart until you see your loved ones again. May those who were wounded heal swiftly and cleanly.

"But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God." ~ Mark 10:14
