Praying for Newtown

You know the phrase, "All we can do is pray".  Everyone knows this phrase; chances are you've said this before.  Well, one night my mom said something very amazing about this phrase.  She was talking about something upsetting, and said "You know, the other night I thought to myself, 'well I've done everything I can- so now ALL I can do is pray!' and then I thought 'what am I saying? The BEST thing I can do is pray.  It's not a last resort... it's the best option!'"  That was so powerful to me.  Shame on me, but I had never thought of it that way.  Now, I think of that statement all the time.

So, let's pray. And let's remember.
