DAD Why Are People So Mean

My childlike faith asking Abba a question…

Father what are we to do? Walking to the bus stop, gunfire. Stopping by the grocery store for ice cream, gunfire. At summer camp, more gun fire. A week before school lets out, multiple gunshots. Police officers routinely serving and protecting, shot dead. Traffic backed up, road rage, more gunfire. Ex-boyfriend becomes enraged, shoots mother and child. Misplaced anger and rage…random gunfire. Nations wanting “their” way, nonstop gunfire. Please help. Abba my heart hurts, please help. Insurmountable casualties…😢

My Father’s immediate response! 🙌🏽🙏🏽✝️

Long version : Beloved, read Psalm 37. What have I promised?

Short version :  “Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act. But transgressors shall be altogether destroyed; the future of the wicked shall be cut off. The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord; he is their stronghold in the time of trouble. The Lord helps them and delivers them; he delivers them from the wicked and saves them, because they take #refuge in him.”
