What vanishes and what remains

For the Lord watches over the way of the just, but the way of the wicked vanishes.--Psalm 1

When we are in the midst of something as horrible as today's school shooting in Connecticut, it is very hard to see how the 'way of the wicked' could vanish. Perhaps like the events of 9/11 or of Columbine the reactions and actions of those touched by this event will bring a lasting good; something beyond the evil of the action of today. Like Anne Frank, I , too, believe in the inherent goodness of man. I pray for the little souls lost today to us, but gained for heaven. I pray for their families. And I pray for the family of the perpetrator. May all receive God's grace and blessing.
