The Lesson From Virginia Tech

Tuesday May 1, 2007

I've heard some ask, "How could something so horrible happen? How could a loving God allow this?"

Billy Graham, the famous Christian evangelist once said, "Comfort and prosperity have never enriched the world as much as adversity has." History has proven that the human spirit shines brightest when tested by adversity. Though we may never understand the senseless massacre that happened at Virginia Tech, we can certainly learn a lesson through this tragedy. Join Jack Zavada of Inspiration-for-Singles.com as he dares us to be honest with God and consider "The Lesson From Virginia Tech."
