Violent Prayers

arg... a friend was the victim of a crime recently.

man... for all the love ur neighbour, all the reaching out and healing and teaching, times like this remind us that there are still spiritual darkness, demons, evil and agents of evil out there. gobs of it.

and for all the little grey areas tt sometimes give us stop n think, it *does* makes life simple to be faced with a deed that is painted stark black.

whoever did it should be chucked in jail. men of old wld have went to war over stuff like this. ("off with his head, ill repent later..."). theres such a thing as righteous anger n this would be it.

argg.

sort of brings to mine my uncle - he had the right idea when his son was told off by a tuition teacher saying he 'couldnt make it'... stormed right up to the principal in full view of the office and flared up 'who is the one who hurt my son?!'

does wonders for the father and the son.... (who really cares abt the tuition anyway) think theres definitely something there. theres a place for stuff like that.

ah well... thank God for His hand on it or it could have turned out worse... glad things are going ok and for now lets patch things up with a little extra prayer... and hold on to You. May peace and forgiveness bring restoration and new strength for the future.

The salvation of the righteous comes from the LORD;
he is their stronghold in time of trouble.

The LORD helps them and delivers them;
he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,
because they take refuge in him.

Ps 37 : 39-40
