Big Prayer for Victims of Colorado Shooting

There's no need to go into big detail here; I'm sure you've already heard.  There was a shooting at a Colorado movie theater, with at least twelve dead and several more injuried.  What started out as an innocent night of movie viewing turned into a senseless massacre. 

I don't know the whys of it.  There is no explanation or excuse for why someone would do such a thing.  The suspect could explain his reasons all day long and they still wouldn't make sense. 

My heart aches for the family and friends of those affected by this senseless killing.  I've prayed for them and will continue to do so.  Their lives have been changed forever.  I can only hope and pray that the community, and the nation, rallies behind those people during their time of loss.  I will hope and pray as well that murders and killings such as these cease. 

May God bring comfort and some sense of peace to those affected...

I woke up to that plastered all over the internet and it just shocked and appalled me!

With all the shootings that have taken place in schools the past couple of years, I personally didn't imagine it could happen at a movie theater like that...

It truly was a senseless act of violence and I don't think everyone will truly understand the why of it.

My heart and prayers go out to all those effected by this, especially the families of those injured and killed.
