As are many around the world, I am still trying
to wrap my head around the senseless tragedy in Connecticut. I am thinking of
the fallen, the grieving and the surviving children everywhere who attend
school every day. I think it’s important to find comfort in the word of God. To
the grieving, take comfort in the fact that God is taking those children in his
arms and raising them up as we speak. They will never have to know hurt or pain
again. To the children around the world I say be not afraid, for the kingdom of
God is still among you. For every bad guy, there are thousands and thousands of
loving hearts who would have gladly given their lives for each of you
Silence
Silence
(In memory of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims)
Their silent hearts no
longer race,
The pitch of death
brought on this place.
Where once their dreams
did sit akin,
Their hands are now
joined by sin.
Lo, these violent hate-punctured
souls,
Giving new meaning to
evils and woes.
Oh, for the children
who witness and weep,
Pray them joyful, happy
to sleep.
He will take them by
His might,
Illuminate their gloom
with light.
He will christen them
His own,
Beautiful angels the
world be known.
