Grieving for those we lost

Once again-

At a time of year when we try to celebrate the true nature of love…we see the fingerprints of darkness…the shadowy figure in our midst, rising up.

Once again-

We gaze in horror at our little electronic window to the world…and weep with those whose loss we cannot imagine.

Once again-

The little innocent lives that were taken…the world that was shaken.

Once again-


Lord, comfort those who are grieving…

As we hold our children a little closer…show us Your path to peace, spread Your healing balm upon this land.

Once again.
