HOLDYOUR AGONY IN THE CENTER OF OUR PRAYERS. THE ENTIRE NATION IS
ACOMMUNITY OF SHOCK, OF LOVE, AND OF GRIEF. MAY YOU FEEL THE
EMBRACEOF THE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS WHO WEEP WITH YOU.
7. LOGOSBlessed are they that mourn, for they shall be
comforted.Those who suffer for righteousness sake theirs is
thekingdom of God.No more shall be heard the sound of weeping and
the cry ofdistress.All adults in this nation must take on the
challenge ofcreating in all of Gods children a clean heart, and a
rightspirit within. (2)We must replace a culture of violence and
mayhem with oneof values and meaning. It is too easy for a young
child to get agun and everywhere we look, there are too many
lessons onhow to use one. We can change that. (2)We need to look
for the earliest signs of trouble and teachour children to resolve
their differences with reason andconscience.
