What the hell. Forgive me, Father, for I know You can take it.
My heart is broken tonight. It breaks time and time again, and our Father is my strength through it all. That’s my prayer tonight. That His strength, love, comfort, and protection will pour into all the people who need it more than anything in the world.
My mind is reeling, my tears are falling, and my heart is breaking. A kind, gentle, sweet woman that I’ve gotten to know and work with in college was taken today. Taken in such a cruel and evil way that I could have only comprehended in movies. So what the hell. I pray that grief and anger will be lashed out so healing can eventually take place.
This world is so broken. This world is so messed up. All I can see is God trying to pick up those pieces. I pray that light will overcome darkness. I pray that we will play a role in that through the Holy Spirit.
And to my readers, I pray that you love your neighbors tonight. Tomorrow night. And all the nights thereafter.
