So Sad

I read in the paper this morning about a Baptist minister in Waco that was electrocuted in the baptistry this past Sunday morning as he was preparing to baptize someone. What makes this story even more sad is that he leaves behind his wife, a 5 year old, and 3 year old twins. For some reason this story just keeps sticking in my mind. I even read the article twice trying to wrap my mind around it. It certainly isn't fair for a guy to die right in the middle of doing the Lord's work, and for his three young children to have to grow up without their daddy. I just can't imagine the pain his family, friends, and church family feels. I don't have any other comment about it, just that it grieves me.
