I'm praying fervently.
God has a plan. God needed these people more than we do. And it's the hardest thing to remember and focus on that.
One of the students today saw one of my coworkers crying and had some of the most comforting words and best perspectives. "Why is she crying? He's with Jesus now."
Those with Jesus are in the best place possible. It's the rest of us who could use the comfort God will provide.
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ....And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort. [-2 Corinthians 2: 3-5, 7]

Michelle, I've been praying for you and all those affected at your school. Mike worked with Tony on the force, and I know there are many, many others who are grieving. Lean on the One who comforts as those in need also lean on you. Love, L.
Amen.
