In the wake of the South Carolina tragedy, hearts are pierced, grieving has begun, loved ones are missed.
The good soldiers who transitioned from earth last Wednesday at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church cause us all to reflect on who we are and what we’re doing. It is clear that life is fragile, and could escape any of us without warning.
What we do on earth does matter.
These nine went to church last Wednesday. Now the world is examining their efforts, their relatives and their legacies. They are free now, but what about us? To the grieving, the numb observer, the guilty gunman and those of similarly destructive mind sets:
“Be very careful, then, how you live–not as unwise but as wise” Ephesians 5:15 NIV
