I wanted to reply to your blogspot, but didn’t know where to start. I was filled with profound sadness, and the realization of the finality of it is the worst part – a family has been ripped apart, and children left fatherless whether because of prejudice, callousness, ignorance, just plain stupidity, or all of the above, I don’t know, but, unfortunately, it is not an isolated event.<br />I am feeling called to more prayer about this. I recently was talking with someone close to my age, who has always had – and still has – good relationships with the black community, and would like to consider himself “color-blind”, and yet he was using unrepeatable language and talking about how he hated “those Mexicans” who lived in the same trailer court. When I would meet or see any of his neighbors, I saw only hard working family members, and children out playing in the yards. I say I am called to more prayer on this, because I just don’t know how to make a difference in the attitude of a person like this, and I realize I am going to need much guidance, and hence, need to do much more listening to the Lord. :) Wingcom Watchdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04249775672170399513noreply@blogger.com
