We get numb to the news and tragedy overload overwhelms us into dullness.

It is complicated.

We cannot blame this group or that group for this manifestation of evil or desperation or delusion or all of those things wrapped into a moment of very bad choices … yet many courses are now altered by one man's issues whose issues intersect and overlap with the issues of others and of all of us.

It is not easy stuff to handle, but that is why we are up right now … in fellowship with one another, some of us in prayer and in fellowship with The Other.

All of us are here in common compassion and concern.

Let us lift our hearts together.
