"Code grey! Code grey!"
The teachers went into action as they told us to get to the back of the room. We all moved until we were told that the drill was over. We sat there for about 10-15 minutes, all huddled together.
The sad truth is that the drills are becoming reality. The attacks are real. Our world is hurting more than ever before. As a student going through the drills, I thought to myself, "Well there is no use for these drills. Nothing will ever happen."
And it has.
A shooting there. A bombing here. And every day, they are becoming more of our "new reality."
All we can do is lift our arms up to God, asking him to help our society, our nation and nations around the globe.
This should not be.
We feel helpless. We feel as though the attacks will never cease.
But when our world is at its darkest, God is there. We should never give up on world peace because with God, nothing is impossible.
World peace is possible if we work together to bring happiness, joy, contentedness, love, honesty to every crevice in this world. It takes each of us to change our reality once again.
No matter how dark and difficult our lives can feel, we have a God who can heal us and show us His light.
And that light...
That light needs to be seen.
