"Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me, for in thee my soul takes refuge; in the shadow of thy wings I will take refuge, till the storms of destruction pass by." Psalms, 57:1

I knew it wasn't going to get to me until I saw their faces. I remember the Challenger and it deeply scarred my little 11-year old psyche at the time. I still hold my breath everytime a space shuttle launches until you hear them say "go throttle up" and nothing happens. I am heartbroken this morning for these families and my deepest sympathies to Israel. We will have a partner country in mourning this time.
