God, I pray that You will be ever close to the families of the victims of the Connecticut school shooting. At this time of year when we focus on the birth of Christ, the focus is to be on Emmanuel, "God with us". I pray that is what these families would experience this Christmas season. And that in the coming weeks and months you would show yourself to be Jehovah-Rapha, "the God who heals" to all who have been affected by it.
Psalm 34.18, "The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."

"I was young and now I am old, yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken or their children begging bread."
To God alone be the Glory!
Peace be with you
