Preventing Another Senseless Death

Everyday people lose their lives in senseless deaths. The news reports chronicle the life of the deceased. We sit and listen to the television or read intently about it over the internet. We share our horror and outrage in conversations, emails, and texts. We put our heads together trying in vain to find ways to prevent another senseless death. In these moments we would do anything, be anything to comfort the grieving parent. In our efforts to make sense of what happened we forget that everyday many perpetuate the ultimate senseless death. For every child lost in a drive by, for every mother or father claimed by a drunk driver there is one Jesus. One Jesus whose death is senseless to all that do not know Him. Take the time to share your story of Jesus. Your action can help prevent another senseless death.
