As this being the third day, I have scanned the net in search of the many different sites that have information on the whereabouts of the loved ones that were in someway or another affected by this so called "religious act" of one person who has the ability to call upon men to do as he wishes with no sence of feeling for fellow human beings. I truly try to understand without passing judgement on anyone, how one person can call upon so many and use "GOD" to do this and people submit. God created man in his image. He did not create man to dangle from strings like a puppet. He gave us the right to choose. To choose how we go about our daily life. He knew that by giving us that right we would not be able to be without sin. Therefore He sent His son to walk upon this earth, die for OUR sins so that we can come to Him and ask forgiveness and the renewed life that has been promised to us so many years ago.
I know this much is true for it says in the last chapter, whoever adds to this book, God shall add to him the plagues describe in this book. Whoever takes from this, God will take away his share in the tree of life.
With this mind then, how can anyone, no matter who or where you are can justify such act as doing this for his or her religion in Gods name. God did not do this, man did. Man has been against man from the very early times of the creation. God has always sent His message loud and clear and yet we tend to miss it every time. That is until now. I have read post and seen the news, witnessed firsthand God shinning His love upon us.
There is a story in the bible that I'm sure most have heard but may not have been able to understand the story.
God loved Moses. Moses loved God. Moses was to take the people to the promised land. During this long journey the chosen people who believed in God would come to a point where they would loose faith. They time and time again had God perform miracles so their faith would be strengthened. One day God was about to due away with the chosen people for they never kept their faith even when He provided them with food and shelter. Moses prayed and prayed to God to change His mind for he had enough faith to lead them to the promised land. When the day arrived, many years had past and God told Moses that he was unable to enter the promised land.
When we come together in faith and pray for the world as a whole that this act of horror has its reason, and that being, that we are now closer at being ONE NATION UNDER GOD!
Take a moment and renew your faith, then take another moment and bring forth your child so that one day we all will be united as one in the promised land.

Thank you Deb, that was wonderful writing.
Now is the time to receive Jesus in your life, now is the time to be saved. And if you have already been saved to do as Deb says and take a momment to renew your faith.

Keep the faith.
