Shock

It is 5:30 in the morning and I sit here in shock. I heard my phone ringing which I thought was odd so I got up because I knew that it most likely did not have good news. It was my Dad so I called him back. He tells me that my cousin Austin (21 years old) was killed last night. What!? You see my cousin works at Disney World and I guess operated one of the monorail trains. There was a collision and he was killed. I don't quite understand why, but from looking at the news he had to be cut out and was dead on the scene. Please pray for our family and specifically my aunt. I can't imagine what it would be like to lose a son, but I know that God does and he is weeping with her and us.

I am so sorry. The pain and shock is surreal, I know, but you're right...He is living amongst you right now and He is enough.
