If you haven't been bombarded enough by all the news on television, text-messaging services, online news sources or tweets, there was a mass-shooting in Aurora, Colorado, last night.
Thankfully, they have the suspect in custody. Unfortunately, several people were killed and many more were injured.
I pray for the families of the victims and for the recovery of those who were injured. I pray that justice is served swiftly in the case of the suspect. I pray that he repents of his sin and knows Jesus Christ before his own demise. I pray for the hundreds of law enforcement officials involved in this case, that they may be wise and fair in their evidence gathering and processing. I pray for the people of Aurora, that they may continue living lives without fear.
In reading a couple articles about the situation this morning, I saw the suspect's mother was quoted in reaction to the news of her son's arrest, as saying, "You have the right person...I need to call the police..."
I also pray that there never comes a day when I have to be that mom.
