"We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light." -Plato
There is a sense of wondering this morning about the terrible bombings during the Boston Marathon on Monday, April 15. A sense of pain and bewilderment exists for those scarred from injuries to horrible suffering. And a deep grief has fallen over the relatives of those who died.
In a world that experiences tragedy on a daily basis, we must not allow that tragedy to bind us in fear and sorrow. The time for mourning and healing exists and must be taken. Never should we allow darkness to win the battle. There will be judgment in time but for now we must help heal the wounded and grieve for those that lost their lives.
Stay strong my friends, grieve for the lost and pray for the wounded but emerge into the light of day standing confident.
