Addition to McLinky...God Spoke Loud & Clear Today

I know I did a post today...see below for where I was on April 19, 1995. But I just had to add this to the post, or more, just add a new post to accompany my earlier one. Each day I get a daily devotional sent to my email inbox. Most days I read it first thing in the morning and try to direct my day in the Scripture, Thought and Prayer for the day. This morning was a little out of the norm at our house because we had to be out the door (ready for school and all) by 6:45 a.m. So just now opened my Daily Devotional. Here's a screenshot of today's scripture:

(Sorry it's kind of tiny, but I think you can see it).

Sometimes God whispers to us. And sometimes He speaks loud and clear.

Today, I believe he spoke loud and clear. On this day...15 years ago, 10 years ago, 1 year ago, today...Jesus wept.

Lucky for us, we have the Great Comforter to put our burdens on, He who loves and comforts us on our darkest days, even when we can't see the light--like many of the loved ones of the victims of the OKC Bombing.

3Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, 4who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. 5For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows. -- 2 Corinthians 1: 3-5.

That's great Alyssa. I think there is a statue nearby the site where Jesus is shown weeping.
