A terrible situation happened at Fort Hood today with the shootings of soldiers and others for some reason unknown at this time. This was an eye opening event and I'm sure it will take on new seriousness at American bases around the world. Investigations will uncover the reasons and from what has taken place today, extra precautions will be put into play. Perhaps an air of complacency has worked itself into our security systems. A system that was never supposed to become "routine". Our military will recover from this awful lesson learned the hard way and hopefully it will never happen again. Our prayers go out to those injured and killed today at Fort Hood, may God bless the survivors and the families of all involved.
"If ... I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among My people, and My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray, and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."
(2 Chronicles 7:13, 7:14)
Perhaps it is time for this nation to humble itself and we all drop to our knees and pray to the creator for his Divine intervention. We as a people can only do so much on our own.
