Customers began coming in to the bank, asking if we'd heard the news. We hadn't. All through the afternoon, it seemed that people who hadn't heard would hop into their car, head out to do errands, turn on the radio, and come into the bank and have to say something. They couldn't just hear the news and go on; it was imperative that they express their horror to someone.
What troubles me is that I wasn't surprised. Saddened, indeed! But not shocked.
Yet nights will bring their sadness
and rob our hearts of peace,
and sin in all its madness
around us may increase.
But still one Star is beaming
whose rays have pierced the night:
God comes for our redeeming
from sin's oppressive might. (LSB 337)
