In light of the recent shooting in Connecticut, I really just have one question that is stirring around in my mind…

Why God?

I’m a minister. I know all the right answers to say and think. But right now they don’t help.

I want to be able to write something amazing that will show everyone what God is doing and why.

But I don’t have the words. I don’t have the thoughts.

I look at my two little children (7 & 4) and wonder why?

The world aches with those families and the school.

Their is a special pain that is held for the worst of crimes, those against the innocent.

We don’t even know each other and we ache in situations like this.

The reason is we know there is a way things are suppose to be and this is not it.

We ache because this is evil!

I do know this. God is aching too. This is not right. The world is not right.

I know it won’t be this way forever, but it hurts now.

So, I believe in God and I believe He has a plan.

But right now I don’t care.

I just want to know why?

My prayers go up to the families involved.

My prayer is that God will help us understand why?

I still believe in Christ’s mission.

Fighting evil and making all things right!
