Why?

This week has brought tragedy to a family in Fullerton..... one of Kayla's friends disappeared and hasn't been seen or heard from since 1:30 pm Saturday afternoon.  Kayla wrote on FB.... "its times like these when i just have to ask God why? please give me the strength :/ praying for James"

I guess it's natural to ask "why" when something like this happens, but I was impressed by Kayla's ability to ask God for strength as well as praying!  All too often we find ourselves asking God why and even cursing Him, but not taking action and praying.  I was also encouraged by the youth, specifically, James' friends gathering together and supporting the family by passing out flyers and just being there.

There is a rosary scheduled this evening at St. Jude's in Fullerton at 7:00 p.m. PST, please let's all pray together that James is found safe.
