Devastating. I hadn't seen the news (England) today but I have just searched it and it is dominating it. I don't know what to say, it's so tragic. Those poor poor families and those lives lost before they've started to live.My BUDDIES Crops, Eye, Jazz, Smile, Sue, Rosana,twpclerk, Moonlightpearl and Vanessa

No matter where we are or what we do, we might not be safe. It is so sad that these things do happen. All we can do is trust in the Lord. My prayers are with their familes and friends as I am sure they are very stressed right now.
A few days ago, when I was spending time with my 6 yr old GD, we went past a cemetery and she started asking me about things. We got into a discussion about the many people related to her that had passed, many before her time. I tried to tell her that God is in charge and we always have to trust him that what he does is for a good reason. She started asking about why people get sick and die and then came up with a question about little children. It was difficult to be honest that little children do get sick and die and still keep her from worrying. The only thing that I could come up with was that sometimes God needs little children around too and we have to always trust him.
It is so difficult to explain things to little children and not have them worrying so much it becomes a problem for them.

This is such a horrible thing to have happened. I know that alot of you have faith much stronger than I could ever have. If you take away my child then you have taken away my heart as well. I have alot of questions in my life that no one can answer but I know how strong my love is for family. I wish in my heart that I could ease the pain that these parents are going through but no one can. When MaryAnn puts a memorial in for her son I feel her pain which I am sure all of us do. I am sorry but I can't find any reason for God to let such a thing happen................Loissigpic....

Good Heavens!! How AWFUL!! I haven't seen anything here in SA on the TV yet.. well I must admit I haven't watched much.. but it tears my heart to hear of such a tragedy! I think anyone with Kids will feel the "implications" of this "massacre".. My heart goes out to all those families that lost their children in such an awful manner.
Forever in my heart - Jazzy

Smile, I don't blame you for feeling the way you do. But there is an answer...
God is not responsible for what people do. He has given us free will, and we have missused it. When Adam and Eve made a choice to go their own way independent of God, he allowed it, to give manking time to prove to themselves that we need his guidance in our lives. He also tells us in Eclecciasted 9:11 that time and unforseen occurances befall us all. He has also been making arrangements for his kingdom to put an end to all this misery. But like the apostle Peter says, God is not slow respecting his promise, but he does not want any to be destroyed, but wants all to obtain to repentance. So he is giving us time to come to know his will and his arrangement for our salvation, then he will act. And Bible prophecies show that it will happen very soon. In fact, the very things happening right now are a sign that the time is near for him to answer the prayers of all righteous people that want a better world.
Well, sorry, did not mean to preach. I just want you to know that he really does care, and he is busy working on it.
