I learned, sadly, that "bad news sells." Period. People want to hear it. But in hearing it, at times, something amazing can happen. At times of "larger" tragedies such as the Virginia Tech killings, Christians all over banded together in prayer. Somehow it moves me to think of pockets of people around our country, and even the world, praying together for grieving families and stunned students, etc., united in prayer and in God's mission of bringing redemption to the world. We HAVE to see the bigger picture and especially the magnificent and glorious ending of "history as we now know it." The second to last verse of Revelation is "Come, Lord Jesus."
