My heart is broken.

Today we mourn the loss of a large group of innocent individuals who perished, or were injured, due to one person's need for creating violence in gigantic proportions. Twelve people lost their lives while fifty-nine more were injured- that's seventy-one innocent people. 

It may be easy to overlook them, but please remember to keep the people who witnessed this horrific act of hate in our prayers. We cannot imagine what they saw, heard, smelled, or felt. May God bless the families who are feverishly searching for a loved one, may their loved one be alive and well. May He comfort the families who have lost a loved one and may they feel His love during this very sad and unfortunate time.

Be sure to hug your loved ones a little tighter tonight and remember to thank God for the blessings that flow unto you each and everyday. Every single day is a gift and we need to be swift in being content with what we have and remember to love each and every single day.

May God bless you and your family today and everyday.
