Feeling so broken hearted!

  I am feeling so broken hearted  for the Amish community in Pa. right now.  My hubby and I went on a anniversary trip there a few years ago.  It was such a lovely place.  I have read tons of books about the Amish and we lived near a Mennonite community growing up.  Though I am not entirely sure of the Amish standpoint on salvation, I know they are peaceful, closeknit and family oriented.  Children in their group are still considered a gift (compared to many in the world today- I know all of us consider ours as gifts too!) so I can only imagine the grief they are all going through.  As I watched Fox news at lunch, I was just so heartbroken for them.  I cried and prayed for them.  

  Things that go on in our world are sometimes just too evil and scary to comprehend.   I found myself wanting to ask why these things happen, but I know -who- causes these things to happen and I know -he- is already defeated!  Praise the Lord!!!      

           Pray for these families during their loss and grief.
