Hebrews 1:4

was as heartrending as anything I have observed in a long, long time. A mother
was found murdered nude. Clinging to her body was a one year old daughter. The
mother evidently had been dead for a long time, but this one little year old daughter
just cdinged to that body and had her mother's blood all over her and when they
came, even then, they had to literally pull that little one year old girl with her
mother's blood over a ...
