Tragedy vs Truth

I recently moved to the St Louis area, just in time for this most recent tragedy surrounding the death of a young Michael Brown. Words and wisdom are very difficult in everyday life, but it feels nearly impossible surrounding tragedy, especially when death is involved. I don't claim to know what the best response is in this situation, but I have difficulty believing the current course of action by some individuals resulting in the destruction of businesses is what brings justice to Michael Brown. 

In times like these I look to the wisdom of those around me that I trust. My dear friend David posted the following words on his blog and I must say that I agree with him. I encourage you to read his words here. In the meantime, I'm praying for peace for the Brown family, their community, and our city.
