Choosing To Live Without Fear

It's Saturday night and I still have not watched anything on television about the shooting of all those children and adults. 

I don't think I can stomach it.  I've heard it on the radio and everywhere is talking about it.  I'm feeling a sort of fear around me, and anger. It's mine. I'm trying to work through it. 

I have little children. I cannot imagine what it is like to send them to school and never get to see them again, hear them laugh, feel their skin touch mine.  So yes I'm afraid. 

I do not want to be afraid. 

And for someone who is so angry and cast over with evil that he would dare to hurt a child. Why not just swallow his own gun and end his perceived misery of his life. Why hurt people who has nothing to do with him? And so I'm angry. 

I do not want to be angry. 

So for now I'll pray. 

I'll pray for all these families whose lives are changed forever. Pray that they will not slide into darkness with all the pain and grief, but that they'll rise on the wings of their gone loved ones and keep the last smile and memory alive. 

I'm praying and I"m crying. 

And hopefully soon faith will replace my fear, and love, my anger. 

Let's pray together.
