In light of the recent tragedy at VA Tech, my thoughts have turned back to a book I read sometime after the Columbine tragedy by author Frank Peretti, aptly named, “The Wounded Spirit.  I feel deeply for all the students who lost their lives, but I also feel for the one who took their lives as [...]

Over the hillside, the sunrise is coming.
Gentle and warm, it wakes up the day.

Heaven and earth now join in the praise.
Those who have seen Him now are believers.

God has a positive answer:
