Mad World

   This morning I got in my car to drive to practice. Since December 1st, I've had my car radio set on a station that plays Christmas music all day long. Songs were played that brought such loving memories from when I was a little girl. I remember feeling so safe and not having a worry in the world.
  When I got home, I turned on the TV to find all the channels fixated on yet another tragedy. I was sickened to learn that 20 innocent children and 7 adults in Connecticut lost their lives in a shooting. The world is sadly unfamiliar. I pray that these families can feel comforted and know that they will see their beloved children again. I hope this pushes us to hold our loved ones close and to remember how fragile life can be.

"Through the revelations of God to His prophets, came the doctrine and authority under which families are sealed together not only for this life, but for all eternity."
