Deliver me, O LORD, from evil men; preserve me from violent men, who plan evil things in their heart and stir up wars continually.
So begins David in Psalm 140. So our nation cries today.
On Saturday in El Paso, Texas, a man killed at least 20 people when he opened fire in a Walmart. The next day in Dayton, Ohio, a man killed nine when he opened fire outside a bar. Dozens more were injured in both places.
