Let me start off by saying there was a tragedy today in Boston. There was a bombing! Today there was a running marathon in Boston and there was two bomb explosions that went off! The number of people injured or killed right now is unknown! It breaks my heart to know that this has happened!
This world is full of SIN! In hard times like this we cling to THE WAY,THE TRUTH and THE LIFE! Jesus came to this earth to die for us! In difficult times I believe that through those hard times it brings us closer to God! I know that right then and there it doesn't seem like it! God is ALWAYS with us! We are NEVER alone! He will never say "Go figure out on your own" He guides us through his Word! Maybe some of you are asking yourselves "Why does He seem so distant?" Well I read quote that really struck me here it is: When you're going through hard times and you wondering where is God, just remember; the teacher is always quiet during a test." That quote really spoke to me because I relate it to a bible verse. It comes from 1 Kings 19:11-13 here it is: Go out and stand before me on the mountain,"the Lord told him. And as Elijah stood there, the Lord passed by, and a mighty windstorm hit the mountain. It was a terrible blast (now think about the blast that happened in boston) that the rocks were torn loose, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. And after the earthquake there was a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire there was the sound of a GENTLE whisper. When Elijah heard it, he wrapped his face in his cloak and went out and stood at the entrance of the cave.
Now in tragic incidents we put out faith in God and trust that He knows what he's doing. Now your probable thinking "why" Why would I put faith in something I can't even see? Well for me the bible is a great source of wisdom and comfort! I trust that God has a plan for my life! We can't control what will happen in the next 2 seconds or tomorrow or a week from now or a month or even a year! Thats in Gods hands not ours!
Alright now I am going to show you some pictures of the tragedy in Boston

To wrap up this blog I want to end with a song and I post songs because they speak to me and I hope they do to you too. The song that I am going to post is called Rescue by Desperation band!
We need Jesus to come to our rescue and He will! We need faith in the one who created us! I speak for myself as well there are times when I struggle with this as well! WE all do. We all need a rescuer and that rescuer is Jesus! Amen?
Blessings to you all
