My heart goes out to the families of those killed or wounded in the senseless and evil attack in Las Vegas. Words seem so inadequate at a time like this when the response you feel is stunned silence.
Our country has seen an onslaught of tragic events very recently with the damage and loss of life from three hurricanes and now must come to grips with yet another tragedy, this one of 'human' making. It somehow makes us feel diminished that a human being can invoke such wrath on innocent people and apparently for an unfathomable and/or illogical reason..... and there can never be a 'reason'.
Please pray for the families of those victims who lost their lives. Please pray for the families and the victims who were wounded that they may recover with our Lord's healing hand. Please pray for our country that moral indignation will overcome our society that has lapsed into political correctness, a lack of responsibility, rights infringing on the lives of others, and the prevalence of evil in large cities and small towns, to the detriment of us becoming paranoid about being around others.
And through it all, let us keep in prayer our men and women around the world who are fighting to protect this country, the freedoms it's citizenry enjoy and the hopes for the future. God, Please Bless America!
*** In trust we turn to God in prayer.
*** In confidence we wait for God's answer.
*** By faith we know that He will do whatever is best for us.
