Conqueror Evil With Good

My heart aches for the parents of those young men and women killed at Virginia Tech on Monday. You cannot imagine the pain and suffering that they are experiencing. The questions that run through their minds ... the "what if" scenarios ... the last conversations shared ... the sweet smell of their children as they were cradled in their arms not so many years ago. I am in awe of the Holocaust-survivor professor who looked Evil once again in its eyes and sacrified his life so that his students could escape. CNN showed video last night of VT students gathering on the lawn where many were in prayer circles lifting up petitions to God. Black, white, Asian, men, women -- all crying out to the Creator of the universe.

"And I believe You’re here now
Standing in our midst.
Here with the power to heal now
And the grace to forgive." ("I believe in Jesus" by: Marc Nelson)
