Hailey Owens

Our hearts go out in grief to the family of ten year old Hailey Owens of Springfield, MO. 

As for the man who harmed her- well, I have many thoughts and feelings.  Sometimes we have to leave a thing in God's hands.  Some things are just beyond our comprehension and our anger has no place to go.

I take comfort in the fact that Jesus was also upset with anyone who would hurt a child.  He indicated that it would be better for them if a millstone was tied to their neck and they be tossed into the sea.

God's heart breaks when our hearts break.  He stands with us in our grief.
