Prayer for Victims of Newtown Killings

God of merciful love,
Help these families who are victims of murder
To accept the reality of such senseless acts of violence
Without, at the same time,
Succumbing to the despair of so great a loss.
May this violence become for them, instead,
A steppingstone toward greater union with you.

The Reality of the Children in Palestine

What of the Tamil Children?

I am posting this because I am half Tamil. 

3 Things that Need Changing

1. Climate Change The world is slowly dying and amendments need to be made to the way we live. Too much energy is being used and we are slowly killing the Earth.

2. Eradicate Poverty. We cannot let children suffer and starve whilst those in Western society pander to consumerism.

3. Gender Equality. I have grown up in a patriarchal world where women are second in the pecking order. We need gender equality in the world.
