Christian America and perhaps others
were grieved to the core of their beings on hearing what happened at a church
in Charleston, South Carolina on Wednesday, June 17, 2015. It was especially
meaningful to us because like Christians around the country, my husband and I
also attended a Bible study meeting on that Wednesday night as we normally do
and at approximately the exact time as the one in Charleston. What happened to
our brothers and sisters in Jesus there could have happened to any of us, and
our hearts cry out for those who are hurting—for those who grieve because of
their loss. Let us never forget what happened that night and pray that it never
happens again.
Satan meant what took place at that church
for evil. But God meant it for good. And good has already resulted from it. As
wicked as that shooting was, a nation blinded by color has become
color-blind—at least for now. May the love and forgiveness birthed in
that terrible moment in Charleston continue, spreading to encase the entire
world in the love and peace of God Almighty.
For there is only one true God; there
is no other. His name is God the Father in the name of His only begotten son,
Jesus—the Messiah, the Savior, the Lord and the King of all those who truly
follow Him. May the lessons learned in Charleston about love, forgiveness and
repentance catch fire to encase the entire world—forever and ever more.
