Hard to imagine . We live in a country that loves children. We have all kinds of people and places and programs dedicated to children. When children die in a bombing in Oklahoma City or a high school in Colorado, sadness grips the entire nation. The death of children makes tragic news even more tragic.
Death is hard to accept.
At the same time we live in a country where many, even in the church, favor abortion or at least defend it as a right. There are not many informed people, even on the pro-choice side, that deny that anymore. Yet, our country s love for children does not seem to extend to those in the womb. Today 4,000 of the Dead were Children. Jesus shows His love for children in the way He deals with His disciples.
