helpless

today i feel helpless. this happened last night. i'm pointing you to the official crossroads statement, but it's all over the news. y'all know this is where dr is a pastor and i used to work there as well. the last 17 hours have been devastating and surreal to say the least. 
i know God is a God of miracles, wonders and restoration. i've been reading this book, MegaShift by James Rutz, and it discusses how God's power and people are on the move. It documents tons of present day miracles that have happened all over the world including dozens of resurrections. i asked for this, begged for this, demanded for healing, restoration, resurrection... and yet, it did not happen. 
i still believe God is bigger and my faith stands. but re: this event, i just don't understand.
i'm posting this for 2 reasons: 
1. i'm asking that you pray however you feel lead for this situation and the people involved. 
2. even though my emotions and thoughts are all over the place, i'm declaring that God is still the God of Israel and is awesome. He is still in the business of miracles.

here, watch this if you haven't seen if before. or even if you have. i'm only including the first of four parts. go to youtube to see the other 3 parts. look for "Raised from the Dead" Part 2, etc.  i love how the wife says, "i reminded God of his promises." it's absolutely ok to do that.
