GOD'S HEALING LOVE!

We pray today, for the dead, the victims of the shocking mass slaying at Fort Hood Texas...And we shake our heads at the senseless, insanity that drove the gunman to murder innocent people.

I wonder at the intense interior isolation, desperation and hopelessness...that triggered the bizarre behavior...from a psychiatrist-no less. A doctor trained to treat mentally ill people...schooled in the solutions to complex mental health issues...Someone who knew how to make healthy choices...and what he should do when darkness and despair threatened to drive him mad.

When a human being snaps, losing all sense of the value of life-their life and the lives of others...It is an extreme example of the numbness that comes when that person is separated from their higher power. There may be other factors, but there is always a shift in consciousness from the will of the divine which has destined us for good, not for evil. The shift may be gradual, may be affected by chemical imbalances, trauma or disease...but the separation from God happens nonetheless-opening the door to a spirit of anger, hatred and yes-even death.

So be vigilant, steadfast in your faith-and fervent in your prayers...Open your heart to the possibility of healing, so that the light of truth will protect you from the lies that wreck our lives and lead us away from God and his unconditional, healing Love.
