broken

There really are no words to describe the emotions that tragedies of this magnitude bring out of our souls. So many unanswerable questions. So much sadness. So much loss. The sweet babies taken way before their time. Families robbed of memories. Futures erased in an instance. 

He heals the brokenhearted

and binds up their wounds.

He determines the number of the stars;

he gives to all of them their names.

Great is our Lord, and abundant in power;

his understanding is beyond measure.

The LORD lifts up the humble;

he casts the wicked to the ground.

        (Psalm 147:3-6 ESV)

 May the Lord bring peace to the families that have lost so much. May he comfort them. Heal their broken hearts and lift them up. Our hearts are broken but I ask that you, O Lord, bring good from that which was intended for evil.

May we remember in our prayers the families of those that have lost so much to this terrible senseless violence.
