North Carolina murders

Sometimes we ask ourselves "WHY".  Why God, did these devoted Christians have to die?  It's a question that will never be answered, but in the aftermath of this senseless killing, we have the family members standing before this monster and all they did was forgive him.  That hate will not prevail; only love.  The whole community came together with only love.  The love of God has shown in the faces of all.  Charleston, North Carolina will be remembered for this mass murder, but also for the city of love.  Everyone has given God the Glory.  All were concerned for this young man's soul.  If we look inside ourselves; could we be that forgiving?  I hope I could.  Think of how the outcome could have been different in another city.  We have all seen senseless violence in the streets, but not here.  Only prayer groups, love and forgiveness.  The outcome of this tragedy has been a lesson in strong faith and the love of Christ.  Let's all pray for the families of the victims, but also for the killer's family.  How awful for his family to have to face what their son did.
