What happened at Virginia Tech?

This past Monday, the deadliest shooting rampage in U.S. history took place on the campus of Virginia Tech University in Blacksburg, Va. A senior Korean student, majoring in English went on a rampage that led to the loss of 32 lives. By now, most of you have seen the tragedy on television numerous times.

When the news broke of this shooting, my first thought "Not again." This type of thing has, unfortunately, happened too often in our society which has led some to believe that some of these incidents are "copy cat" which means someone saw one shooting on television and decided to try to the same thing for attention.

Obviously the young man who went on the rampage had significal psychological issues. Some had attempted to reach out to him but to no avail. From what I've read, he felt disenfranchised which led him to experience bitterness.

What do we learn from this?
1) We are reminded of how fragile life is.
2) Tell those close to you that you love them.
3) Make certain of your eternal destiny. Make sure that you know Jesus as your personal Savior.

We need to be much in prayer for the Virginia Tech family as they cope with this tragedy.
