I don't usually address this kind of thing on my blog...

...but I couldn't help it. What happened in Virginia yesterday was beyond comprehension, and I am truly left without words. I can only say that I hope and pray God will be with those involved, and that what man intended for evil, God might use for good.


Psalm 23
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.




(I'm not posting this for the video, but rather for the song, which I can't help but associate with situations like this)

You're welcome. It was the only thing I could possibly think of, and somehow Amazing Grace always seems fitting for such times.

The occurences in Virginia were so unbelievebably awful and cruel, our only comfort is consolance in God. Thankyou for your post. :)

You're exactly right, and you're welcome, even though I didn't do anything. I just wish I could help.

On a lighter note, I haven't seen hide nor hair of you for a while! How've you been?
