The
shootings in Aurora Colorado bring out emotions that many people
live most every day of their lives without feeling. People who never
think of praying, suddenly wish they knew how, and some even give it
a try for the first time. Then there are those who privately pray
daily who suddenly are not scared to drop right down on
their knees in public. And while crowds sing Amazing Grace, people
look to heaven for answers from the one who made us.
News
reporters left and right find no problem with reporting on that
which they normally wouldn't give the time of day
to, references to God. And their photographers
actually look for that just right photo of someone calling out to
Him.
While people are pointing fingers and blaming this group
and blaming that group, the fact of it is that we live in a fallen
world. Tragedies like this remind us of that fact. And tragedies
like this remind us that there is only one who we are to turn to in
times like this, the same one who we need every day of our
lives.
We see the hand of God very much in times
like
this.
