Howdy all! You know I read a lot of things yesterday about what happened in Colorado. In almost every one, it appeared that those writings were making some attempt to take advantage of the situation either politically, or at least to support a certain vain they promote. Saddest thought: this came from every direction, even tea party groups. The victims had not even been fully cared for, and the language of the left, the right, the up and the down were all pointing at something that would support their position, or point at someone for falsely accusing others. I don’t know about you, but I didn’t get shot. My relatives and friends were not there. So what I believe about this tragedy, or what anyone to somehow include this into their political agenda means absolutely nothing. What has happened to so many families in that town means absolutely EVERYTHING! Just as in the shooting in Tuscon, the tragedy was still unfolding, when someone tries to make it political. And just like in Tuscon, someone answers back. And the distractions begin.
I do remember what I went through personally; worrying about my family and friends in NY on 9/11/01. I remember that what was being said on tv and radio about what happened and who did it meant NOTHING. The only thing that mattered was that those I know are ok. There are families in Colorado who don’t care about what is said on tv or radio. They only care about their family members.
Encouragement? I think you know what to do.
Don't let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. ~ John 14:1
Get up and go to the great city of Nineveh. Announce my judgment against it because I have seen how wicked its people are. ~ John 1:2
Take care, God bless,
AND PRAY FOR THOSE WHO NEED OUR PRAYERS THIS DAY
