Suffer the little children

Just awful - roadside bombers in Iraq have killed dozens of children today.

I am grateful for having faith upon hearing such a thing. How could a person make sense of this world, if you didn't believe in a God who will right it again? And right it He will - those children are now in His arms; noone can ever hurt them again. He will wipe away every tear. They will never know sorrow, sadness, suffering, or pain where they are now. Those are the passing things of this world, already forgotten to them. With God, they will remain children forever, and he surely takes delight in them, for whom the kingdom to come was made. I only hope their parents come to realize that one day, in hope, they will see their beautiful children again.

And unless their killers truly and deeply know sorrow and regret for harming such innocence, all I can say is that a special millstone is the only paradise awaiting them.

I cannot be angry for my sorrow is so deep. God bless and keep all children all over the world.
Amen
