More support in Virginia Tech tragedy

There are so many good thoughts and prayers being shared in posts! Wanted to be sure to point out some more of these as a help. They've all added much fuel to my prayers. Hope they do for you, too!

Also, this peom by Mary Baker Eddy, has been in my thought a lot these last couple of days. I offer it as a prayer for all involved in this sad event.

Satisfied

It matters not what be thy lot,
So Love doth guide;
For storm or shine, pure peace is thine,
Whate'er betide.

And of these stones, or tyrants' thrones,
God able is
To raise up seed--in thought and deed--
To faithful His.

Aye, darkling sense, arise, go hence!
Our God is good.
False fears are foes--truth tatters those,
When understood.

Love looseth thee, and lifteth me,
Ayont hate's thrall:
There Life is light, and wisdom might,
And God is All.

The centuries break, the earth-bound wake,
God's glorified!
Who doth His will--His likeness still--
Is satisfied.
