I honestly didn't think I'd live to see the day precious little Emily was found, but I am so so thankful she has been. My heart grieves for the pain and sorrow her family is enduring right now. Although they surely felt she was no longer on this earth, no doubt the grief is as unbearable as if she just passed away today. I know this to be a fact. Although I for many years felt my missing grandfather had long been deceased, the days and weeks after I found him, I bawled like a baby. Although nearly 4 years since finding him, I still feel twinges of sorrow at times, knowing how he died, but I am so thankful the good LORD finally, after 40 years, brought him home to the family that missed him so.
I just pray the good LORD comforts and wraps His arms around little Emily's family as they endure the next few days and weeks and years to come.
As for the creep who took her life, I'll let God be the judge on that, and just pray and believe that He will see that justice is served in the manner that is His will.
He reminds me so much of the idiot that took little Opal Jennings (Texas) life. The creep honestly believed her remains would never be found, that he'd sit in prison a time on kidnapping charges, then turned loose on society to prey on little ones again. But she was found, thank God, and I pray he never sees the light of day again!
To me, the death penalty is just an easy way out for these predators. They should all be locked in a tiny, dark, concrete cell, and remain there until they go totally insane and bash their heads against the wall til' the die.
Either way, the precious one is at rest now, knowing her family has found her. God may she rest in beautiful and blessed peace. Like my grandma always said, "Don't say goodbye, just say "so long". So long, little angel. We'll be seein' ya'.:angel:
