Today has been a very sad day for many in Aurora, Colorado. A 24 year old man, James Egan Holmes, went to a midnight showing of the new Batman movie, "The Dark Knight Rises", and killed 12 and injured 59 people.
I've read many different articles about the shooting, they all have reports that are just unbelievable. He bought a ticket to watch the show for a little while. And then went out to his car to get his weapons, vest and helmet. When he came back, he open-fired on so many people. He also shot at little children. How can someone fire on children?
It is so sad, and it's so easy to say, "God, why did this happen? Why did you allow this to happen?"
But the facts are, we live in a fallen world, and there are many people who do very bad things. These things happen because people think we can live without God. And it's not true. That is the lie of the enemy.
We need God. All the time.
Pray for the families and friends of the dead and wounded. Pray for healing of their bodies and hearts, and pray for Holmes.
