Senseless...


It's senseless when people take other people's lives
 because they are unhappy in their own lives.

It's senseless when innocent lives are lost.

It's senseless that guns are sold to people who use it wrongfully
and without cause.

It's senseless when our safety is compromised in public places
because of one person's decision.

It's senseless to even speculate the reasons why people kill others

It's senseless that we are made to live in fear sometimes.

There are many things that are senseless about the movie theatre shooting
in Aurora, Colorado.

The only thing that makes sense right now to me is that God exists.

He will comfort those who are in a state of mourning.

The only thing that makes sense is that my family and friends are safe.
My baby is kicking and moving!
Life is growing in abundance.

And we will be alright!

We will make sense out of what is senseless....

    These types of senseless acts make me so angry and sad. I truly wish that our leaders would stand up and take action to help prevent future tragedies.

    Senseless is right! Some of the most comforting words I heard yesterday were from a song on the radio:

    "I am not skilled to understand
    What God has willed, what God has planned
    I only know at His right hand
    Stands one who is my Savior"

    I couldn't help but ask God "why" yesterday, but we must remember that it's not our place to understand the why in all instances. Rather, we must rest in knowing that He is a sovereign God and has our life in His hands.

    I can't begin to understand incidents like this. They rage and anger in hurting innocent, unsuspecting people is more than troubling. I pray that all affected have peace and comfort.

    i totally agree with all you point out, especially it is "senseless that guns are sold to people who use it wrongfully
    and without cause."

    God will comfort them all. These are the times when we should lean on him the Most.


    Praying for all the familes that were affected.

    It really is a tragedy that people are able to be so sick and it can go unnoticed enough for them to kill so many people.

    It saddens me to no end that these individual lives have been touched in such a senseless way. Such evil exists in our world.
