Reminds me of the response by the Amish to the school massacre at Nickel Mines in 2006. An excellent book by Donald Kraybill about that event and the community's grace-filled reaction was a real eye-opener for me.

I'm not crying, you're crying. How furious satan must be that he just can't touch this family. How glorious the rejoicing in heaven. My heart aches for this family, this girl, with grief - yes with grief, but mostly with a deep love for displaying the incomprehensible glory and peace and grace of our God. Thanks for sharing

I would love to think I could do the same, but...could I? Would I? "Grace, grace, God's grace; grace that is greater than all my sin."

Thank you, Peter. I had not yet seen this heartbreaking yet beautiful story. I hope this young lady’s message rings out across the nation as a way of truly letting them know who we are by our love.
