As my daughter and I walk into church one of the first people we see is a policeman. My grandson, a special agent, also has volunteered his time as security in his church. How crazy is this! We can’t go to church without worrying about our personal safety. Church used to be a sanctuary where we felt safe, and that’s exactly what God intended. Back in ancient Israel, people clung to the altar in the Temple for safety. I long for the time when we will have sacred, safe spaces again.
Lord, Help Us!
