A Masquerade for a Post
I’m trying to get a bit of writing done today and failing miserably. After all kinds of administrative and organizational things this morning, I sat down and pounded out a newsletter article for January, which is lousy and I will need to re-write. Then there is the corresponding article on worship for the newsletter: not written. Then the blog post, which this is masquerading as.
I’ve got Sandy Hook on the brain, and everyone has something to say about it. Not me. No words. God have mercy. That’s about all I can say. Pray for the lost and living, your own kids and schools every day and may God frustrate the wicked plans of evil men.

“God have mercy” basically sums up all that can really be said about Sandy Hook. The sense of grief is overwhelming. When the boys and I went back to CT this summer to visit my family, we went to Newtown and Sandy Hook to look for antiques and to enjoy the beautiful, idyllic scenery. It is just a short drive from my home town, the epitome of Colonial New England. That is one thing that hits me- the disconnect between how perfect that town looked vs the horrific evil that unfurled there. It is a bipolar world we live in- a broken landscape- and my heart breaks for those left behind. But for the mercy and compassion of Christ, there would be no hope.
