Reaction to the Death of Saddam's Sons
This will not be welcome in many blog-circles, but I feel I must do it and say it for my own sake and the sake of those who might otherwise be led astray. I pray for the repose of the souls of these two men. The world is a better place without them. But I know that God does not desire that He should lose even one of His beloved children. I praise and thank Him for His justice and I ask Him in obedience to His commandment to have mercy on the souls of these men and comfort the family that mourns for them. "Bless those that curse you." As I said, it is a matter of discipline and something that is actually much harder to say and mean than I thought it would be. But I do pray it, and I do mean it. These men do not deserve such mercy and lovingkindness, but then, neither do I. And I hope at my death that there are a great many waiting to pray me out of purgatory and into His embrace.
