Prayers for Charleston South Carolina

Image from Google.

I tend to be a night owl. I was up pretty late the night this tragedy took place. My heart sank.... Nine people killed in cold blood while having a prayer meeting in a church. How can anyone stoop so low?We can all ask why... and most people are. What could drive a 21 year old kid to kill people simply because they are black? He knew nothing about these people aside from the color of their skin. How does someone become that filled with hate for people they do not know?  I just don't get it and truth is I don't want to. I don't want to know how someone can do such a thing.

I won't use the suspects name... he doesn't deserve any publicity at all.

I don't know his parents.... so none of us should judge them unless we know them personally. Are they to blame? Should they be held accountable for raising this hateful human being. For all we know, they could be the nicest people on earth. Too often parents are verbally abused for their role... but unless you know their role you shouldn't speak to it.

I pray to God to comfort ALL the victims of this violent crime. I ask God to bless them with healing, peace, mental and emotional healing, Strength and hope.

When I say all victims... I mean anyone who was effected by this crime. Family, friends, co-workers... anyone who is having a hard time with it. We all need peace!

This was a HATE crime. There are no other words to describe this.

I want to Thank the Police and FBI in South Carolina for arresting the suspect in a timely manner. For putting every resource they had in place to find him and get him behind bars where he can no longer spread his hatred.
