omaha mall shooting.

such a sad and unfortunate event. it really blows my mind how someone so young, with so much life to look forward to can resort to this level of violence. killing himself and innocent victims because of his own personal demons. it's very scary how these sick events have now become part of our daily lives. of course, each time it hurts but am i wrong in saying that we as a nation, as a society, as people have grown more and more accustomed to these types of tragedies? can you imagine the grief of the family members of these innocent shoppers and employees? how can one persons anguish & depression lead to anothers death? i am sure all of these innocent victims are in a much better place. but i'm sure not one of them woke up yesterday morning with the thought that december 5th would be their last day. this really leads me to think back to the wonderful sermon my pastor delivered this past sunday. Jesus is coming back for us and we should live each day as though it is the day of his return. we do not have time to prepare ourselves for his return, to "fix" ourselves before his return. we should be living each and every day as the day of his return. you never know what will happen. you never know what each day has in store for you. be joyous as though you know your Lord and Savior will be returning TODAY. Be prayerful and believe that the almighty king will be here TODAY. I thank you Jesus for waking me up this day, thank you Jesus for allowing me to be able to nourish my body, thank you Jesus for the clothes on my back, for the car that drove me to work, for the job that i have. for the ability to SEE, to HEAR, to BREATHE. you are alive. you have your hand in everything around me and i know this. you are an awesome God, you are an amazing God. and i love you. God Bless you and yours. God Bless the victims of the omaha mall shooting. may we thank the Lord for another day :)
