Las Vegas Slaughter

Oh our Lord,

We implore Thee the gates of heavens to open wide

For

The souls of our innocent slain brothers and sisters 

To receive!*

I'm sure He did open the gates of Heaven for all those that were needlessly slain in this horrific occurrence! You prayer surely hits home when I read it, and I'm sure the Lord heard it! I loved this incredible poem this morning! What a brilliant piece, Great Work my friend!!

Very sad ... Ghastly and mad ... Lord is always there to bless both who are expelled from life and who have brutally expelled them ...
