September 10, 2025 marks another tragic day in our collective memory with the assassination of Charlie Kirk, a man remembered for speaking biblical truth with love and respect. This deeply personal reflection explores the weight of grief following this senseless act of violence, alongside other recent tragedies including Iryna Zarutska's murder in Charlotte and a school shooting in Colorado.The raw emotion conveyed captures a righteous anger that many believers feel when confronted with evil—not surprise, as Scripture forewarns of persecution, but profound sadness because "we weren't made for this." Our souls were created for Eden, for harmony and peace, not to bear witness to such darkness. Yet these moments call Christians not to retreat but to advance with greater conviction.We are reminded of our divine calling to be both salt and light in this broken world. Salt preserves goodness and adds flavor; light dispels darkness and reveals truth. These complementary functions define authentic Christian witness—speaking truth, but always in love. Standing firm doesn't mean responding with hate or violence, but rather maintaining unwavering faith while extending grace to others.For those struggling to process these tragedies, seek comfort in Scripture—particularly the Gospels and Psalms. Shield your eyes from consuming excessive violent content that your soul wasn't designed to bear. Stay connected with supportive community and remember that while we face a spiritual battle between good and evil, we already know which side ultimately prevails.Will you stand firm when it matters most? This isn't about political divisions but about bringing light into darkness. Speak truth lovingly, guard your heart diligently, and remember that even in our most profound grief, we serve a just God who comforts those who mourn.Where you can find me:LinkedInInstagram YouTubeEmail Me: [email protected]
