Overworked Guardian Angels

Startling reports of 400 wounded and over 50 dead as the result of a massacre-like shooting in Las Vegas cause us to pause and again ask, What is happening?   We do not know the motivation or the circumstances of the killer, but it is certainly appalling to see that one man actually fired indiscriminately on a crowd of innocent concert-goers.  Their guardian angels, it seems, were helpless in the face of such violence, but the larger question is, what is the root cause of so much killing, so much disregard for all 10 commandments, so much dysfunction in our society?  May our guardian angels guide us in ways of peace and safety, in ways of love and respect for one another and for God's commandments....especially the great commandment to love our neighbor as ourselves.  It's time for us to make a greater effort to live and teach all the commandments.  May God have mercy on the wounded and deceased. but on us the living as well, whose obligation it is to live according to his law.
