Why does it have to be like this?  Why?  This happened in my hometown.

 A family in suburban West Palm Beach was tragically struck by devastation earlier this week. A mother of two was gunned down by her estranged boyfriend in front of her two children and her mother. The grandmother has inherited the two year old Ariel, and 3 year old Reggie. The boyfriend then shot himself.

     

Two days later, the residence where it occurred was found to be burglarized of the majority of their possessions including the Christmas tree, all of the presents, a bed, computer, coffee table etc. They were cleaned out.

I wished these things could be explained.  There are things in life that really test your faith.

"And the Lord said unto Satan, Whence comest thou?  Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it."

Your story illustrates this harsh reality. The world we live in is full of sin and corruption.  Thankfully, this world does not have to be our home.  

They will be judged in due time.
