Do You Count Your Blessings?

Hi all,

My mind today is on this tragedy that occurred in Connecticut at an elementary school.  As far as they now know, eighteen elementary children and eight adults were shot and killed by an assailant early this morning. 

The news media hasn't released, as of yet, why this twenty year old man went into this school with a gun and started killing children and adults.  As far as I can see, there IS NOT any good reason for such a vicious act. 

Once again, I need to ask myself, "What is happening in this world today?"  Why do people think it is okay to take out their frustration and anger by picking up a gun or knife and killing someone!  It certainly is not okay, not under any circumstance or for any reason what so ever. 

Please take a few minutes, where ever you are in the world, and say a brief prayer for the survivors of this terrible shooting and for their families.  Please ask God to stay close to them and help them through this horrific time. 

Make sure you hug each member of your family and tell them how much you love them.  Remember, tomorrow they could be gone!  Sometimes there is no tomorrow!
Susan
