As I was driving to work this morning I was listening to WBZ. One of the top stories was about the kids who killed the pizza delivery man. Yesterday they were talking about what a family man he was, devoted to his girls and working to send them college. Today they told how the kids ate the pizza out of the box with the mans blood all over it. Stories like this hurt my heart. I don't even know this man or his family but I am grieving with them. It is senseless.

All I could think was how sick some people are. How does someone callously kill another person and then go on like nothing happenend? These people obviously do not have any religion or faith. I then thought about all of the Psalms we have been reading which talk about death, torture, and God's wrath. I have to be honest some of these readings have been troublesome to me. I always think of the Psalms as a book of poetry praising God. But what came to my mind as I was listening to the news story was, these 3 individuals deserve the wrath of God. They malitiously killed another human being for a pizza! I now it's not christian to think that way but it was my first thought.

This one will be left up to the courts to decide their fate. But I also wonder if God will deal with them in his own way and own time??
