school shootings and what not

today a school shooting occurred at Virginia Tech. some guy..i think it was an asian..rampaged through the dorms and killed a total of 32 people. i am in shock. i mean, i probably shouldn't be, given that we live in a corrupted world and all, but..i always fail to comprehend how people can do such things. he's probably a normal guy, just like u and me. a guy who goes on with life day by day, doing things that we all do. and then suddenly he turns into this crazy heartless maniac that has no problem killing THIRTY TWO people and then himself?? i wonder what was going on in his mind. what spurred him to action. what his last thoughts were. how he could bring himself to pull the trigger on 32 of his fellow human beings.

did he not feel scared? did he not feel regret? did he not feel guilty? did he even feel anything?? i don't understand how people can do such things. i guess maybe he couldn't live with himself..that's why he killed himself too.

i just wish he knew Jesus. i just wish that he had the chance to experience the wonders of God's love. maybe he did. i don't know. what i do know is that i feel incredibly blessed to know Jesus as my Lord and Savior..because He is the reason that i live.
