The Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Shooting

February 17, 2018

I lift up my eyes to the hills—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord…    Psalm 121:1-2

I am at a loss for words. What else can be said about the horrific shooting in Parkland, Florida? So many shattered lives have left me numb, with a nauseous knot in the pit of my stomach. I want to gather every one of those mothers, every one of those fathers, every one of those siblings, every one of those classmates, every one of those teachers and coaches and administrators, every one of them, and place them in the arms of Jesus.

O God, hear our sobs! Our screams! Our silence! Our pain is white-hot.  We are angry. We are broken. We are oppressed. Please, comfort the grieving.  Speak peace to the fearful. Draw near to those who are crushed in spirit. Bind up their wounds.

Give us all an abhorrence of evil. Expose the plots and schemes of the wicked before they are carried out. Protect our children and our grandchildren. Guard us. Heal us. Make us whole again. We look to You…
