At a time when we just can not fathom the anguish and pain that the families of those who were killed in Newtown, CT, God touched me. My heart is broken, just as yours has also broken over this tragedy. We are not helpless, we have power. Too many have turned away from prayer. This country has pushed God out. It is time that we take a stand, and ask Him to come back into this nation. Please read this poem, and allow God to minister to your heart.

these days of innocence lost
to the exploding rage of few
the American dream at a cost
because no ones kneeling at the pew

what goes on in the mind
as the dark trap is set
even more as human kind
keeps paying the devils debt

the sounds of terror in the night
filling the hearts of any
trying hard to keep up the fight
while hot embers burn up too many

parents grieve their children so
who were once at peace in time
while terrible evil is set to go
trying to take out the living vine

so count the cost of turning away
from the freedom our fathers once knew
the new regime is here to stay
to poison the morning dew.

God bless the families of Newtown, CT
