Tragedy in Gulfport, MS

The wife and son of the minister of the Orange Grove Church of Christ in Gulfport, MS were murdered in their home yesterday afternoon.  This involves not only loss of life, but betrayal, abuse, and a failure of our justice system to protect the victim.  The family, but also many others involved, need our prayers.  I am reminded of our lesson Sunday night, that Jesus teaches us to pray for our enemies.  I can't imagine a more difficult time to put that into practice.
