In Tough Times

Friday was a tough day across our country.  We were all shocked and terrified with the news of the shooting.  It felt particularly close to home for those of us who spend our days inside a school. I read a powerful article Friday night however that brought things full circle for me. If you have a chance to read over this I highly recommend it.  I was the most impacted by the final statement:

"The mystery of evil is a declaration of war on the peace of God’s creation. The war goes on, but not for long. And sometimes the most warlike thing we can say, in an inhuman murderous age like this one, is “It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas.”

 On this cold, rainy, Monday morning I am reminded how important this Christmas season really is.
