In Loving Sympathy

I read with horror the note about the tragic deaths in Tony's family. I was immediately reminded of Job and his trials. Like Job, Tony has faith in Him, and like Job, Tony will use his faith to shine God's light for all to see, even as he grieves.

I will pray for all involved, for the souls of the children, for the parents and families, for the rescue workers and firemen, for all who have been touched by this loss.

The good news is that those blessed children are beloved of God, and are sitting with the Lord as we grieve. The sorrow we have is an earthly one, washed away forever in heaven.

Tony,
I cant even begin to imagine the grief your sister and your family is coping with. Being a mom with a son in Iraq has been fear-filled, but the reality of this tragedy is beyond words.
We will keep your family on our church prayer list. May the God of all comfort hold each of you close in this excruciating time. Collette
