This is a terrible thing to happen and I am so sorry for the family. It amazes me that people believe they have the right to take another persons life. My prayers are with the family that they may have strength and that God will deliver justice. I hope this person is caught and rots in jail for the rest of their natural life, and then spends eternity in hell in their spiritual life. Not very forgiving, nor will I be, God understands my anger. Think about that. Having suffered a loss in our family as well within the last month and a bit, I understand the intense crushing pain of grief that overwhelms you. God says Vengeance is His and it is quite the test of our faith to refrain from exacting our own justice. This person deserves to die. How dare they. I am sick with the evil upon us. How animalistic, preying on one who is young, more vulnerable and obviously not as strong. What right should one have to lay a hand on another with the intent of taking that persons life. They (people who do such awful things) may run but I must say you can’t hide from the eyes of God. Hold on to the knowledge that Emily is in God’s hands. Such knowledge offers little comfort, however, in grief. It is so hard because of how much we love the person and we are all still here. (God does say…..whoa be it to he that hurts My little lambs) I am sorry for venting but this just hurts me deeply and I am so tired of the rights for criminals and those who prey on the more vulnerable. To the family, keep strong, keep together, talk about it, grieve, watch for signs, listen to your spirit and don’t ever lose faith as angry as you may get. Trust that time will help to heal. God understands our anger, our grief, us intimately. Once again, I am so sorry and my prayers are with you. You have a long road ahead of you and may God and his heavenly hosts surround you, especially in this intense time of grief.
