Life is so very fragile

I woke up on Friday morning to the news that a Malaysian airliner MH17 was shot done in mid-air. It took a while for the news to sink in...

I could not believe that this has happened. A commercial airline shot down in military fashion. Innocent lives taken... My heart goes out to those who lost their lives and more so for those they left behind. As stories of the passengers on that flight flooded our screens, I prayed that God will bless their soul and keep their families in His extra care.

Life is so very fragile and I thank God for what He has given me and what He has not. Though I fret about the things I do not have, I thank God for Life and the possibility of many many unseen blessings to come.

As we pray for the souls of those on that Malaysian airlines flight, let us celebrate our lives, freely given by God our Lord. Let not what we lack weigh us down but be thankful for what we have.
