A Time of Sorrow

My heart goes out to all the families and frends of all those who were killed on Monday in what now has been called the worse shooting in American history. I cannot begin to imagine the grief that these families must be experiencing right now. We all should take time to share in this sad time and more importantly allow the families the privacy they need at such a horrible time. I'm not a religious person but I do have a favorite prayer that I would like to share below.

The 23rd Psalm
The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want,
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures;
He leadeth me beside the still waters,
He restoretyh my soul:
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name sake.

Yes, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death

I will fear no evil: For thou art with me;

Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;

Thou annointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,

and I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.
